Kevin Bacon is the Center of the Universe
Alexander Wyeth Ruthven
Well, it's that time of year again --- BACONFEST '95
It is a well established fact that Kevin Bacon can be traced back to any
actor or actress, living or dead, by successively linking them through a
series of movies and actors.
For example,
William Shatner was in
STAR TREK VI with
Christian Slater who was in
MURDER IN THE FIRST
with Kevin Bacon

: OK, you want a challenge, buddy? Fine. Link Kevin Bacon with Max Schreck,
: who played the title role in F.W. Murnau's Nosferatu.
: And yes, I checked it out myself. It can be done, with as few as four
: intervening actors (possibly fewer).
If I remember correctly, the theory states that any two actors can
be linked through Mr. Bacon using a chain *no more than 3 films
long*. Also, the film with Kevin should go in the middle.
Example:
Sarah Jessica Parker
appeared in *Footloose* with
Kevin Bacon
who appeared in *A Few Good Men* with
Jack Nicholson
Now, according to these rules, I believe I've found two actors
(currently working, even!) who prove the theory wrong:
Adam Sandler and Gerard Depardieu!
Anybody ready to prove me wrong? =:^)

I hate to rain on your parade but by the nature of the problem if Kevin
Bacon can be connected any actor than any actor can be connected to any
actor. So why is he necessarily the center?

Hell no. I think you're putting an absolute on your interpretation of the
theory. Ultimately, yes, the underlying idea is that any actor can be
eventually linked to another actor, and a bunch of college guys composed
some algorithms or something that said that Kevin Bacon's name appeared
most often. I'm not sure of the details.
I think it's that an actor, ON AVERAGE, can be linked to Kevin Bacon in
three steps.
Gerard Depardieu was in "Green Card" with Andie MacDowell;
Andie MacDowell was in "Short Cuts" with Fred Ward;
Fred Ward was in "Tremors" with KEVIN BACON
Adam Sandler was in "Mixed Nuts" with Steve Martin;
Steve Martin was in "L.A. Story" with Sarah Jessica Parker;
Sarah Jessica Parker was in "Footloose" with KEVIN BACON

Well, Actually No. The catch, I believe, is that he (KB) must be connected
by no more than six degrees of separation. That sort of hinders things a
little.
Either way, play this game. Yes, the Kevin Bacon game! I got an entire
college dorm lounge of about fifteen people to play. The game lasted days!

Using your rules, no, I can't do it (as of yet anyway). I *can*
connect Gerard Depardieu to Kevin, though:
Gerard Depardieu
was in GREEN CARD with
Andie MacDowell
who was in ST. ELMO'S FIRE with
Demi Moore
who was in A FEW GOOD MEN with
our man, Kevin Bacon.
I don't know what movies Adam has been in, though, so I can't do that
one at all.

Adam Sandler (oh, I'll resist the editorial comment)
was in MIXED NUTS with
Steve Martin
who was in PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES with
Kevin Bacon
jenster
: oooh, ooo, link him up with Buster Keaton!! Please! Pretty please.
: Or tell me where the URL is!
I can do it in the required three links:
Buster Keaton was with Jonathan Winters in "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World".
Jonathan Winters was with Alec Baldwin in "The Shadow".
Alec Baldwin was with Kevin Bacon in "She's Having a Baby"

Max Schreck was with Alexander Granach in NOSFERATU,
Alexander Granach was with Glenn Ford in SO ENDS OUR NIGHT,
Glenn Ford was with Kevin Bacon in THE GIFT (bending it a bit: made 4 TV)
BTW, "Max Schreck," as you might recall, is also the name of the evil-mogul
character played by Christopher Walken in the second Batman movie.

If you can remember Buster's Cameo in in It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad
World, there are a million ways to get to the Bake. Here's a way
through a few popular movies off the top of my head. This could be
shortened considerable in this path, and I bet if you go to
Nicholson in The Raven, you could get to Vincent Price and Spencer
Tracy in some movie together (Tracy was in Mad Mad).
Kevin Bacon/ Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men
Nicholson/Faye Dunaway in Chinatown
Faye Dunaway/ Dustin Hoffman in Little Big Man
Dustin Hoffman/Teri Garr in Tootsie
Teri Garr/ Mickey Rooney in The Black Stallion
Mickey Rooney/ Buster Keaton in It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.
or
Faye Dunaway/ Warren Oates in Bonnie and Clyde
Oates/ Peter Falk in The Brink's Job
Peter Falk/ Buster Keaton in Mad Mad etc.

Heck, this one is easy:
Buster Keaton starred in
A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM with
Jack Gilford who starred in
COCOON with
Steve Guttenberg who starred in
DINER with
Kevin Bacon.
Can someone tell me how to count the number of degrees of separation?
I can think of two possible answers: Kevin Bacon is three people away
from Buster Keaton, but he is six links away from him. Or do you have
to count the original person too, which would make Keven Bacon four
people and seven links away? So are there three, four, six or seven
degrees of separation between our boy and Buster Keaton?

Wasn't that easier? BTW, I can connect John Wayne to Kevin Bacon

I can't do the whole link, but I know it can be done. He's been
linked in this thread already to the movie A Few Good Men, so assuming
that link, here's the rest of it.
Anna Paquin was in The Piano with
Holly Hunter who was in the Firm with
Tom Cruise who was in A Few Good Men
and then the rest of the link, which I don't know what it is, since
I haven't seen A Few Good Men to know who's in it.

I say there are three. If you counted the original person, then KB would be
one degree of separation away from himself. And if you count both the people
and the movies, then there would be nobody KB would be only one degree of
separation from (in fact, no odd number would be possible). It doesn't make
sense to me to say that Meryl Streep was in THE RIVER WILD with Kevin,
therefore, she is _two_ degrees of separation from him.
Buster Keaton's KB number is 3. Anybody who has been in a movie with KB has a
KB number of 1. And Kevin Bacon himself has a KB number of 0.
Oh, and here's the CLERKS solution.
Everybody in CLERKS was in CLERKS with
Leslie Hope who was in TALK RADIO with
Alec Baldwin who was in SHE'S HAVING A BABY with KB.
Now somebody will have to check whether the Leslie Hope who was in CLERKS is
the same one who was in TALK RADIO. Anybody?

in Satisfaction with Julia Roberts who was in Flatliners with Keifer who
was in Three Musketeer with Rebecca DeMornay who was in Guilty as Sin
with Don Johnson who was in Paradise with Melanie who was in Shining

A shorter route:

Liam Neeson
Schindler's List
Ben Kingsley
Sneakers
Dan Aykroyd

Now, how about linking Joe vs the Volcano to Kevin Bacon?
Or for a real challenge, Joe vs the Volcano to Joe Piscopo?

I said I hadn't seen it! How am I supposed to know? He wasn't in
any of the few previews/commercials I can remember. (Which is saying
absolutely nothing, since I don't pay attention to previews/commercials for
any films unfortunate enough to have Thomasina Cruise in them.)

Easy cause this relates to my fave actor:
Anna Paquin in The Piano with Sam Neill
Sam Neill in Family Pictures with Kyra Sedgwick
Kyra Sedgwick (married to Bacon) in a cameo in Murder in the First with
