Can Sally Field Act? - freeradical - 05-12-2008
Yeah, she's been in some entertaining movies, including the over rated Forest Gump, but -
I have such a hard time taking her seriously. All I can think of when I see her is the Flying Nun...

She was Gidget before that. She's a great actress. "Places in the Heart" and "Norma Rae" for proof.
[edit] Though I was annoyed by her character during her appearances on "er."

I certainly was. And yes, you were supposed to be.
Kinda like you feel uncomfortable watching "Curb Your Enthusiasm"

She was known as Hollywood's easiest piece back in the late 70s.

You bet she can act: That commercial she does where she talks about having to set aside time once a week so she can take her osteoporosis pill is one impressive piece of acting.
How she can manage to say something that stupid without at least smiling much less wihout falling down laughing is downright impressive.

It's tough when your signature performance was Smokey and the Bandit.

I think she could play just about any role... well, maybe except for a role like Sigourney Weaver had in Aliens.

So, I guess I should rephrase - she can do anything except Sci-Fi Action.
