Tom Hanks & Sally Field

WTOP Entertainment Reporter Jason Fraley marks the 30th anniversary of “Philadelphia,” which won Tom Hanks his first of two back-to-back Best Actor Oscars followed by “Forrest Gump,” where Sally Field plays his momma who taught him, “Life is like a box of chocolates.” We’re flashing back to interviews with both screen legends, including the 2014 Kennedy Center Honors for Hanks, the 2016 Presidential Medal of Freedom for Hanks and the 2019 Kennedy Center Honors for Field. (Theme Music: Scott Buckley’s “Clarion”)
