The new film "Hello, My Name Is Doris" stars Sally Field as Doris Miller who at 60 years old develops a huge crush on her new, much younger coworker John, played by actor Max Greenfield.

Doris is original but she's also socially awkward. She lives alone on Staten Island in a house chock full of stuff she can't bear to part with. She wears funky, vintage clothes and has a different sort of way about her. But here her young co-worker John sees something in her. Where everyone else sees her as weird, he sees her as good weird.

Doris is someone that Field could relate to on some level, as she explained to Alex Cohen in a recent interview, "Doris and I are very linked in a lot of ways. I'm not as eccentric as she is. But I am horribly shy. I am a notorious hermit. And I have terrible social anxiety... inside I am like screaming. So, certainly I linked to Doris in many ways. But the craft of what acting is is finding those links, but also shaping it so that they fit within all of the confines of what this character [is]."

Alex Cohen recently sat down with Field, and the writer and director, Michael Showalter, to talk about the film, and in particular the love scenes between her and Greenfield's character, who is 30 years her junior.
