Tom & Rita attended the Kennedy Center Honors where Tom’s friend and co-star Sally Fields was honored. Tom shared this while on the red carpet.

“Sally just disappeared. She was just always the mom,” Hanks told USA TODAY. “(It’s) funny, when you work, you see each other, you have a cup of coffee in the hair and makeup trailer, you go over the day’s work and what your life has been like. Because we were friends prior to that, there was no maintenance to it, there was no work. There was just that pure, fabulous sharing of the day’s requirement as actors.”

Here is a clip from an interview Tom & Rita did at the event:
