Sally Field, a legendary actress with a decades-long career, has had several iconic on-screen romances. She recently revealed her least favorite on-screen kiss. After initial reluctance, she finally named her ex-boyfriend Burt Reynolds as the culprit.
Field explained that the romantic scenes during filming of “The Man Who Cried Evil” weren’t quite as magical as expected. She said Reynolds’ kissing style involved a lot of “drooling,” which made the moments awkward.
Despite their five-year off-screen relationship, Field later distanced herself from Reynolds for personal reasons. In a 2023 interview, she admitted to not speaking to him for the last three decades of his life because he had become someone she could no longer be with.
Fields’ career, including roles in “Forrest Gump,” “Steel Magnolias,” and “Mrs. Doubtfire,” has made her a Hollywood icon. She remains active in the industry, recently appearing in “Dispatches From Elsewhere” and “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty.”
