I figured I would throw out a name and see who could connect the person to Kevin Bacon in the shortest film (no tv, no animated voiceovers) relation.

After this, someone else throw out a name and we'll continue? (the last 2hrs of work are the slowest of the day and of your life)

Start: Faye Dunaway

Jimmy: "I'll be here every day for life, plus 30 years, if I live that long." Joaquin Phoenix, To Die For (1995)

Faye Dunaway was in Barfly (1987) with Pruitt Taylor Vince
Pruitt Taylor Vince was in Trapped (2002) with Kevin Bacon

FYI, this game is ruined on the internet:

http://oracleofbacon.org/oracle/index.html

1. Faye Dunnaway was in The Thomas Crown Affair with Rene Russo.
2. Rene Russo was in Tin Cup with Kevin Costner.
3. Kevin Costner was in JFK with Bacon.

Sweet.

Start: Jimmy Stewart

James Stewart was in Airport '77 (1977) with Kathleen Quinlan
Kathleen Quinlan was in Apollo 13 (1995) with Kevin Bacon

Here's Jenna Jameson

Jenna Jameson was in Analyze That (2002) with Cathy Moriarty

Here's Herve Villechaize (Tattoo)

1. Jimmy Stewart was in "the Shootist" with Ron Howard.

2. Ron directed "Apollo 13" with......Kevin Bacon.

Next:

Christopher Lee

Just as a side note, I saw Kevin Bacon in Central Park a few weeks ago. He was wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses and walking in the opposite direction as I was running.

Woo hoo! One degree of separation for me baby!

hey, no website help. use your own noggins

Easy.......Christopher Lee was in "Wild Things" with Kevin Bacon. C'mon people!

Mark Paul Gossellar

may not be the shortest way to get there, but...

Mark Paul Goesellar was in Dead Man on Campus with Tom Everett Scott who was in That Thing You Do! with Tom Hanks who was in Apollo 13 with Kevin Bacon

Jack Black

Mark-Paul Gosselaar was in Twisted Love (1995) with Clint Howard
Clint Howard was in My Dog Skip (2000) with Kevin Bacon

Jack Black was in "High Fidelity" with John Cusack, who was in "Americas Sweetheart's" with Julie Roberts, who was in "Flatliners" with Kevin Bacon.

There's probably a shorter one, but I suck at this game, so I'm proud that I figured it out without cheating.

Next: Hilary Duff

Well based on the above:

Duff was in Agent cody banks with Muniz
Muniz in My Dog Skip with bacon

Next:

John Holmes

[This message has been edited by 91_Aggie (edited 10/23/2003 8:10a).]

John Holmes was in John Holmes and the All Star Sex Queens (1980) with Kitten Natividad
Kitten Natividad was in Doin' Time (1985) with Colleen Camp
Colleen Camp was in Trapped (2002) with Kevin Bacon

Had to kill that one...

Start = O.J. Simpson

Ummmm, yummy. Christopher Lee was NOT in "Wild Things." I'm not sure who you were thinking of.

And O.J. is so simple:

1. O.J. was in "Naked Gun 33 1/3" with Fred Ward.
2. Fred Ward was with Kevin Bacon in one of my favorite movies "Tremors."

So we still need a correct answer for Christopher Lee.

Christopher Lee was in the Two Towers with Brad Dourif.

Brad Dourif was in Murder in the First with Kevin Bacon.

The Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon only applies to actors in movies...

Doesn't matter if you went to school with his sister's half-brother's uncle's stepdad's life partner...

If you haven't been in a movie, then you have no official connection... and directing, producing, writing, best boy, gaffer, etc. on a movie doesn't count either.

Fred Astaire was in "The Man in the Santa Claus Suit" with Gary Burgoff

Gary Burgoff was in "MASH" with Donald Sutherland

Donald Sutherland was in "Animal House" with Kevin Bacon
