Summary

Two-time Oscar winner Sally Field joins Willie Geist to discuss a career that kicked off when she was a teenager, starring in Gidget and then quickly moved on to The Flying Nun. From there her career shifted to more serious roles where she won an Emmy for Sybil and Oscars for Norma Rae and Place in the Heart. In her latest project, Remarkably Bright Creatures, which is based on a best-selling book by Shelby Van Pelt, Field speaks on the creative process bringing the book to life and acting alongside her co-star Lewis Pullman.
