Shall I really name names here?\u201d she asked before answering the fan\u2019s question. Her explanation was decidedly unromantic: there had been too much \u201cdrooling.\u201d The revelation surprised Cohen, who pointed out that the pair had also dated. Field and Reynolds met while making Smokey and the Bandit in 1977, beginning a relationship that lasted roughly five years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-stories.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/04130821\/shutterstock_306705119.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39523\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Behind their celebrated chemistry, however, Field remembered a partnership that was not good for her. Speaking to Variety in March 2022, she said they had not spoken during the final 30 years of Reynolds\u2019 life. While he later expressed regret about their romance, she rejected his idealized version of their past. Her account offered a sobering distinction: a memorable Hollywood love story is not necessarily a happy personal one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sally Field\u2019s worst screen kiss came with an unexpectedly personal twist.
