Nov 15, 2018 Full Review Brothers & Sisters: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) EW Staff Entertainment Weekly Sally Field wears that look on Brothers & Sisters as matriarch Nora Walker, wondering whether her son in Iraq is still breathing - and it's more affecting than anything Field could've said in her Emmy acceptance speech last month.
