Viewers also couldn’t help but notice the maternal warmth in Sally’s interaction with Emma Stone. “Sally Field speaking to Emma Stone is like a mother speaking to a daughter,” one viewer said of the tender moment.

Sally’s illustrious career spans over six decades, beginning with minor roles in films like Moon Pilot in 1962 and blossoming into television stardom with series like Gidget, The Flying Nun, and The Girl with Something Extra in the ’70s. Along the way, she has amassed numerous accolades, including two Academy Awards, multiple Emmy Awards, and two Golden Globes.

Reflecting on her journey after receiving the SAG Lifetime Achievement award last year, Sally shared insights into her resilient spirit in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I wasn’t trying to prove myself… The more complicated roles I can get to, the more pieces of myself I could find,” she revealed at the time.

Growing up in a working-class show business family, Sally learned firsthand that the entertainment industry is far from glamorous. “It’s not fun, it’s not easy,” she confessed, underscoring the dedication and perseverance required to thrive in the world of showbiz.
