Following on from the Connect 6 Thread, how about a game of Bacon

Name any Actor or Actress 'THAT HAVE STARED WITH' and within 6 degrees of seperation you have to link it to KEVIN BACON.
Played this on many a quite day

no directors, editors, cinematographers etc. etc.

example.

Shortest Path from Elsa Masriera to Kevin Bacon

Elsa Masriera was in Madre sin saberlo (1927) with Mercedes Olivares
Mercedes Olivares was in Bajo dos banderas (1926) with Edmundo Fuenzalida
Edmundo Fuenzalida was in Los Cascabeles de Arlequin (1926) with Placido Martin
Placido Martin was in El Ultimo galope (1951) with Yoya Martinez
Yoya Martinez was in "Marron Glace, el regreso" (1996) with Walter Kliche
Walter Kliche was in The Lawless Land (1988) with Xander Berkeley
Xander Berkeley was in Apollo 13 (1995) with Kevin Bacon



I'll start, try:

LAYER CAKE

First to 3 or less wins and chooses.

i thought that you had to start with an actor/actress rather than a film.

...plus they have to have starred with, not just worked on (as in directors, cinematographers etc)

...but anyway, could do...

Daniel Craig appeared in Layer Cake, also appeared in Tomb Raider...

...along with Angelina Jolie who starred alongside Brad Pitt in Mr & Mrs Smith...

....who appeared with Kev Bacon in Sleepers.

Or what I should have said -

Daniel Craig was in Layer Cake
Daniel Craig was also in Road to Perdition with Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks starred in Apollo 13 with Kevin Bacon!

Don't know why I didn't think of that before!
