Field gained recognition throughout the years for her depiction of strong mothers in popular films such as Not Without My Daughter and Soap Dish.
She remembered, “I was really depressed, so the woman I worked with, a great actress, on The Flying Nun, grabbed me to the back of the sound stage and put a piece of paper in my hand.”
Naturally aging Field has been outspoken about aging gracefully, stating in a 2016 Good Housekeeping interview.
That she has come to terms with her role as a “old woman.” Field stated in the interview that she has decided to age organically, particularly because aging is unavoidable.
