Author Topic: Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon Michael Brown Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1522 From: Bradford, England Registered: May 2001 posted 08-11-2003 06:56 AM                     Ok. For those who don't know the rules: the theory is that any actor can be linked to Kevin Bacon within 6 films or less. For example, I'll start with Brian Blessed to Kevin Bacon Brian Blessed to Charlton Heston -Hamlet Charlton Heston to Helena Bonham Carter -Planet of The Apes 2001 Helena Bomham Carter to Kevin Bacon -Novocaine ------------------------- Now try: Eddie Griffin to Kevin Bacon  |  IP: Logged Stephen Brown Film Handler Posts: 91 From: Newcastle, NSW, Australia Registered: Jan 2000 posted 08-11-2003 07:03 AM                     Michael, Just to take the fun right out of it...... The Oracle of Bacon And the oracle says.... Brian Blessed was in Tarzan (1999) with Minnie Driver Minnie Driver was in Sleepers (1996) with Kevin Bacon Eddie Griffin was in Armageddon (1998) with Keith David Keith David was in Novocaine (2001) with Kevin Bacon Sorry to spoil the fun..... The real fun is trying to find someone with a high linkage number above 3 or 4...... Sorry Mate..

Hassan Nebhan was in Roozi khe zan shodam (2000) with Norieh Mahigiran Norieh Mahigiran was in Ghesse haye kish (1999) with Atefeh Razavi Atefeh Razavi was in Nargess (1992) with Farimah Farjami Farimah Farjami was in Madar (1991) with Mohamad Ali Keshavarz Mohamad Ali Keshavarz was in Caravans (1978) with Anthony Quinn Anthony Quinn was in Last Action Hero (1993) with Colleen Camp Colleen Camp was in Trapped (2002) with Kevin Bacon ha!  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-11-2003 12:43 PM                       I believe the theory goes that everyone can be linked to everyone else in this manner, in 6 degrees or less. The oracle site gets fun, when you try to link silent movie stars to flavor-of-the-day newbies. It's often surprising.  |  IP: Logged Darryl Spicer Film God Posts: 3250 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: Dec 2000 posted 08-11-2003 07:04 PM                    Humphry Bogart to Steve Martin in dead men don't wear plaid Steve Martin to Kevin Bacon in Plains, Trains and automobiles.  |  IP: Logged
