Sally Field, Now 76 Years Old, Has Never Had Plastic Surgery Despite Facing Ageism In Hollywood
Even at the age of 76, Sally Field has disregarded most of the “rules” that have been established. Being a woman in Hollywood is difficult. Sally Field performs admirably in films like Forrest Gump and Steel Magnolias.Some of our greatest work from her is not her acting onscreen, but rather her personal method for overcoming ageism in her career.
Field, a passionate activist, is frequently referred to as ageless and gifted. Her speech for the SAG Achievement Award was modest and helpful to outline her nuanced acting background.“Offstage I felt shy and careful and hidden. But onstage I never knew what I would say or do. I would surprise myself. I wasn’t looking for the applause, or attention, even though that’s nice,” she confessed. “Acting, to me, has always been about finding those few, precious moments when I feel totally, utterly, sometimes dangerously alive. The task has always been to find a way to get to that.”Field looked flawlessly lovely and graceful while wearing a stunning black dress and her naturally gray hair.“They opened and revealed parts of myself I would not have known otherwise. I’ve worked my whole life. In all of these almost 60 years, there is not a day that I don’t feel quietly thrilled to call myself an actor,” she explained.
