I remember we had this on the old board.
I didnt know if anyone was going to copy the old post over, but if you are, just either close this one down and start the new one, or add to this one.
But if I remember correctly, the rules were simple.
Give an actors name and we must connect them to Eastwood through other actors (only movies to, not TV, as I learned.) in the least amount of connections.
Anyway, if there was more rules or anyone knows the full rules please post them.
I'll get us started again.
Todd Susman
-
He was in Coneheads with Michael McKean (True Crime).
Mike Myers
-
I saw McKean in a restaurant two weeks ago. He was talking to that little red headed girl (Laura Ambrose) from 6 Feet Under. I wanted to ask him about working with Clint, but I couldn't work up the nerve.
-
One of Mike Myers co-stars in the first Waynes World movie was Lara Flynn Boyle who was in The Rookie.
Next (not sure if we had this on the old board)
Eddie Izzard
-
Eddie Izzard was in Cat's Meow with Jennifer Tilly who was in Liar Liar with Jim Carrey who was in Pink Cad and Dead Pool.
One of Mike Myers co-stars in the first Waynes World movie was Lara Flynn Boyle who was in The Rookie.
Next (not sure if we had this on the old board)
Eddie Izzard
-
There's a much easier link and a one-stepper for Izzard: he co-starred in Shadow of the Vampire with John Malkovich, Oscar nominated for his assassin In the Line of Fire.
And just using Bogdanovich's The Cat's Meow, also along for that journey with Eddie was Victor Slezak - who played the elder version of Francesca's son going through her trunk in The Bridges of Madison County.
Next:
Oliver Platt
-
Oliver Platt was in Bulworth with Isaiah Washington in 1998 ... a year before Washington co-starred in True Crime with Clint. 8)
How's about Hugo Weaving?
KC
-
Hugo Weaving did the voice for 'Rex the Male Sheepdog' in Babe[/i] which starred James Cromwell who of course was in Space Cowboys with the man. (Eastwood)
Is this one acceptable KC? :-\
-
That is, in fact, the one I had in mind ... Good work, Nightwing! 8)
KC
-
Cool. ;D
Now... how about....Jean Claude Van-Dame?
-
Wham-Bam Van Damme was in the dreadful video-game-to-movie Street Fighter, which quite embarassingly was the late, great Raul Julia's last film. Raul of course was the "German" car thief in The Rookie.
Helen Hunt
-
Do the films that Clint directed count or just the ones where he stars? ???
If so... Helen Hunt was in "Pay It Forward" with Kevin Spacey, and he was in "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil"
-
Yes, but she's also in Peggy Sue Got Married which has Jim Carrey in a small part. He is, of course, in The Dead Pool and Pink Caddy...
You post the next one, Xichado. :) Even if yours isn't allowed - I've still got Xmas shopping to do! :o
-
The Helen Hunt link I had in mind: long before she started winning Emmys and Oscars, she co-starred in the intentionally cheesy tongue-in-cheek low-budget '80s Sci-Fi Trancers pics with Tim Thomerson. Thomerson had a small but memorable role as the Highway Patrolman who pulls over Red to discover the stowaway in Honkytonk Man.
And yes, for purposes of this game in earlier incarnations on this board, we had been including Clint's credits as director but not actor (Bird, Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil, Breezy and the upcoming Mystic River).
Your turn, Xichado!
-
Thank you Daisy and Holden.
It was the first time I played the game and I wasn't aware of the rules... plus I was mega-late to work this morning and I just typed the first thing that came to mind.
Daisy, I also noticed Helen Hunt the last time I saw Peggy Sue Got Married. She plays the role of Peggy's daughter.
I don't know if her name has been mentioned but since she is a bigger nut than moi ;D
Anne Heche
-
Anne Heche was in John Q with Robert Duvall who was in Joe Kidd with Eastwood.
Paul Gross
-
Gross was in the adaptation of Armistead Maupin's "Tales from the City" with Laura Linney (Absolute Power & Mystic River) and Michael Jeter (True Crime).
Janeane Garofalo
-
Janeane Garofalo was in The Cable Guy with Jim Carrey who was in The Dead Pool with Eastwood.
Bruce Springsteen
-
The Boss was in "High Fidelity" with John Cusack, who was in "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" directed by Clint.
James Belushi
-
JB was in Salvador with James (True Crime) Woods...
The new one is, er, Challenging... ::) I can do it in three steps.
Leon Trotsky
Yeah. That Leon Trotsky and it is as an actor in a movie not as a historical figure or documentary footage!
-
Daisy, believe it or not, I've got it in two ... :o
Trotsky's only appearance as an actor (not as "himself") in the IMDB is in My Official Wife (1914), in which he is said to have done a "bit (uncredited)." Starring in that as "Helene Marie," who according to the plot summary is "on the run from the Russian police in St. Petersburg [and] plots to kill the Czar," was Clara Kimball Young. Young, who died as recently as 1960, had a long career ... she's credited with 151 appearances as actor in the IMDb. Among them, I located 1938's The Mysterious Pilot, which featured legendary stuntman Yakima Canutt as "Indian Luke."
Canutt ... and I didn't know this ... is credited as second unit director on Where Eagles Dare.
KC
-
For a new one, how about the famous/notorious German star of stage and screen ... Gustaf Gründgens?
This can be done in no more than two easy steps. ;)
-
I don't know how 'easy' it is but.....
Gustaf Grundgens was in Das gab's nur einmal in 1958 with Marlene Dietrich.
Ms Dietrich was in Paris - when it sizzles(1964) with William Holden (Breezy).
If that meets KCs exacting standards let's try..
Dusan Antonijevic
-
That wasn't the route I had in mind, Red, but it works just as well!
Dusan was in some of the "Sauerkraut Westerns" back in the sixties, which were based on Karl May's "Winnetou" books ... they were filmed in his neck of the woods, which at the time went by the name of Yugoslavia.
One of them, Old Surehand (1965) featured Wolfgang Lukschy. Lukschy was "John Baxter" in A Fistful of Dollars.
Here's an easy one ... connect Clint and fellow California politician Ronald Reagan.
KC
-
Old Ron's last real film appearance was in Don Siegel's The Killers - so there are a number of ways to slice that banana! ;D
Since that movie featured Lee Marvin - I'd connect him to Paint Your Wagon.
-
New one:
Australian renaissance man:
(http://www.thisisbrightonandhove.co.uk/brighton__hove/leisure/interview/images/rolfharris.jpg)
Rolf Harris!
-
I grew up watching Rolf on TV and I knew all the words to 'Two Little Boys' when I was 8!
Rolf was in Crash Drive (1959) a movie which also featured Anton Rodgers who had an uncredited bit part in Where Eagles Dare.
Next Stanley Holloway
-
Stanley Holloway was In Harm's Way with George Kennedy (Thunderbolt & Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction) and Carol O'Connor (Kelly's Heroes).
Sterling "Oh, bother..." Holloway (no relation)
-
Sterling "No Relation" Holloway was in Won Ton Ton, the Dog Who Saved Hollywood (1976) with Bruce (Hang 'em High) Dern and Madeline (City Heat) Kahn.
Next: Eddie "Rochester" Anderson.
KC
-
Rochester was in Frank Capra's You Can't Take it with You, which also featured character actor Dub Taylor, who shows up in Thunderbolt & Lightfoot.
Edd "Kookie" Byrnes
-
Edd Byrnes was in Darby's Rangers and Up Periscope with James Garner who was in Space Cowboys
The ever beautiful, Lana Parrilla
-
Lana Parrilla, whoever she is, has only been in two movies, neither of which I've ever heard of, namely Spiders and Very Mean Men, both 2000.
Also in the cast of Very Mean Men was Billy Drago, who turned up as one of Stockburn's deputies in Pale Rider ... "Deputy Mather," according to the cast list ... must be a distant descendant of ol' Cotton.
Speaking of cotton ... how about Joseph Cotten?
KC
-
KC, Lana Parrilla, plays 'Theresa Ortiz' in the hit NBC show 'Boomtown'.
Shes very good looking and does well in her VERY SMALL >:( part.
-
Nightwing, there are no small parts ... only small actors! ;)
I'm sorry, but we're talking movies here. I don't watch TV, except for Clint, and baseball.
KC
-
One of Joseph Cotten's last roles was in Michael Cimino's epic flop Heaven's Gate, which starred Jeff Bridges (Thunderbolt & Lightfoot) and featured Geoffrey Lewis (manytime collaborator). And Cimino of course wrote and directed Thunderbolt & Lightfoot, as well as workig on the Magnum Force script.
Lily Tomlin
-
Lily Tomlin was in Woody Allens Shadows and Fog along with John Malkovich (In the line of Fire).
Jean-Jacques Moreau
-
Time for a clue, methinks.
It is a one stepper and a French actor is the link.
-
Extremely difficult - it's a good job I got insomnia! ;D
My Friend the Traitor (1988) stars both Jean-Jacques Moreau and a fellow named Jean-Pierre Bernard who was in The Eiger Sanction.
Sheesh. :o
-
New one - in one. Trevor Howard.
(http://click.alltheweb.com/go2/2/atw/1cAE5A2FBF/MSxJQixpbWc/http/www.gw0hqd.clara.net/media/lep21596/depart.jpg)
-
Trevor Howard played the "First Elder" in Superman (1978); Little Bill himself, Gene Hackman, played Lex Luthor.
I'll post a new one shortly.
-
What about Laurence Harvey?
-
(http://www.fantafilm.it/Attori/harvey.jpg)That dangerous smoothie was in WUSA with Pat Hingle - Sudden Impact.
-
New one: That old devil Wilfrid Hyde-White.
-
Hyde-White was in Richard Donner's 1982 Richard Pryor starrer, The Toy. The "aerobics class leader" in that one was played by Stuart Baker-Bergen ... who was the "blond surfer" in Tightrope (his only other film appearance, aside from a TV movie).
I won't be able to post another till tonight ... Daise, if you're out there, you can go again if you want to! :)
-
OK, how about character actor Brad Dourif?
(http://ia.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/23/35/22f.jpg)
There are at least three one-steppers here, probably more ... he is a busy man! ;)
-
Brad Dourif (amazing character actor) was in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers with Hugo Weaving who played the sheep dog ??? in Babe which starred James Cromwell, Space Cowboys.
And Brad Dourif was also in Childs Play 3 with Andrew Robinson who was in Dirty Harry.
Gregg Henry
-
Nighty, there's an easier link via Lord of the Rings ... a one-stepper. Do you know it?
And, besides Child's Play 3, there are at least two other one-steppers ... it might be fun to have a thread where we try to identify the actor who's been in the most movies with Eastwood co-stars, without ever having co-starred with Eastwood himself. 8)
-
Brad Dourif was also in Childs Play 3 with Andrew Robinson who was in Dirty Harry.
Brad Dourif was in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers with Bernard Hill who was in True Crime.
Brad Dourif was in Heavens Gate with Jeff Bridges who was in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
Brad Dourif was in Ragtime with Jeff Daniels who was in Blood Work.
Brad Dourif was in Pheonix with Billy Drago who was in Pale Rider.
Brad Dourif was in Body Parts with Jeff Fahey who was in White Hunter, Black Heart.
Im tired now, so Im going to bed.
Gregg Henry
-
Greg was in a chain-gang movie called Mean Dog Blues with the great George Kennedy of Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
New one: Jonathon Pryce
-
Jonathan Pryce was in Glengarry Glen Ross with Ed Harris who was in Absolute Power.
Bono. (The U2 lead singer, just to not confuse people. ;))
-
Jean Claude co-starred with Geoffrey Lewis is Double Something.
Wham-Bam Van Damme was in the dreadful video-game-to-movie Street Fighter, which quite embarassingly was the late, great Raul Julia's last film. Raul of course was the "German" car thief in The Rookie.
Helen Hunt
-
Bono apparently had an appearance in The Million Dollar Hotel, with Mel Gibson, who was in Ransom with Rene Russo, who was in In the Line of Fire.
-
Assuming that what Nightwing had in mind, I'll post another one:
How about Renée Zellweger
(I know there's one very obvious one and probably the most simple, but I've got another one in mind)
-
I dont actually ever have one mind when I post a person. I just hope you guys can find one, and if it works, thats cool. 8)
-
How about Renée Zellweger
Renee was in Me, Myself and Irene with Jim Carrey, who was in The Dead Pool.
If thats the obivous one (which I think it is) and not the one you had in mind, then leave it open.
-
There's another obvious one I personally like even better ... Zellweger was in Neil LaBute's Nurse Betty (2000) with none other than Morgan Freeman, Will Munny's unfaithful sidekick Ned. ;)
-
Wow, I didn't even think of that one, KC. The one I had in mind went to Morgan Freeman as well (it just went from a different movie and had an extra step in there)
Whoever wants to go next out of KC or Nightwing can go ahead.
-
KC, its all yours.
-
Alrighty, well I guess I'll take this one.
George Eads
-
Robert Vaughn guests in the only cinema effort of this non-entity - Heat and Dust (1997) - The old man from Uncle was of course in Bullett which has a small part for Robert (Joe Kidd) Duvall.
Ye gods and catfish, Nighty. A hero of yours is he? ::)
-
Robert Vaughn guests in the only cinema effort of this non-entity - Heat and Dust (1997) - The old man from Uncle was of course in Bullett which has a small part for Robert (Joe Kidd) Duvall.
Ye gods and catfish, Nighty. A hero of yours is he? ::)
No, George plays Nick Stokes on CSI, which is one of my favourite shows.
And the movie is Dust to Dust not Heat and Dust. ::)
Anyway, your up Daisy.
-
And ... Dust to Dust was released in 1994, not 1997! ;) (Not that I've ever seen it! :o )
I have seen Heat and Dust ... a Merchant-Ivory movie from 1983.
I know we're not counting made for TV movies here, but I can't resist pointing out that this Eads fellow (sounds like an acronym) was in a project called The Spring in 2000 ... costarring in that was a lass by the name of Alison Eastwood. ;)
-
:-[ Whoops! Yeah a few of the details got garbled there between me reading them on one site and posting them on this.
Sorry. (Especially to you Nighty as I know you are perfect in every way! ;))
New one: Norman Wisdom.
-
Sorry. (Especially to you Nighty as I know you are perfect in every way! ;))
You got that right, you peasant fool. Now bow down before me and worship my perfectness.
;D :P
-
How about just answering the question, child. ::)
-
The question is open to anyone.
And I dont know about the U.K., but when you turn 18 in Canada, your an adult. Some Im not a "child".
-
As you act, Nighty. As you act. ::)
-
New one: Norman Wisdom.
This ones been here for awhile. Anyone got any ideas?
I think we might need a hint Daisy.
-
Well, Our Norm is a strictly godawful British comedian of the 50s and 60s but he did make at least one movie in America with a rather diverse and interesting cast.
And a thriller most recently which features an Eastwood co-star. A compatriot of Wisdom that Eastwood finds having to unwillingly carry out matters of life and death.
-
Daisy, the link would be Double X: The Name of the Game (1992) ... which starred Wisdom and Bernard Hill (as "Ignatious 'Iggy' Smith"). Hill, of course, played the troubled Warden Plunkitt in True Crime.
-
Have we had Charles Boyer lately?
-
Were you thinking Casino Royale, KC?
Boyer is in it (right in it, some would say! ;D) and Richard "Where Eagles Dare" Burton has a fleeting walk-on.
Is that too flimsy?
-
Hmm, I know we've had Boyer before, and I know we've had Casino Royale as an answer before. Whether or not as an answer for Boyer, I don't know ... tell you what, Daisy, see if you can come up with another one. I know there is at least one other film out there that has Boyer and not one, but two Eastwood co-stars.
Maybe we should just declare Casino Royale off-limits (so to speak) for this game, once and for all ... ;)
-
Maybe we should just declare Casino Royale off-limits (so to speak) for this game, once and for all ... ;)
LOL! ;D
Well before we ban it as well let me get in with Around The World In 80 Days! Our old pal Charles Boyer is joined by Eastwood co-stars Shirley "Two Mules..." MacLaine and Victor "Lady Godiva" McLaglen at least... ::)
-
OK, Daise, good enough! Though I was looking for a film with two co-stars from Clint's "mainstream" period. But in a filmography of Boyer's size, that is rather like looking for that proverbial needle in the haystack ... So, you're up.
-
I reckon Two Mules... was pretty "mainstream", KC, but I take the point with Godiva! :)
What was the better answer? Hmm?
New one: Joan Crawford
-
Boyer was in The Buccaneer (1958) with Inger Hang 'em High Stevens and E.G. Absolute Power Marshall ...
There are probably a number of one-steppers for Crawford. The two I found without much difficulty are these:
The Karate Killers (1967) starred Crawford and Telly Kelly's Heroes Savalas ... say, that one rhymes! ;)
And the "cult" Nick Ray Western Johnny Guitar (1954) starred Crawford and featured Royal Dano and Sheb Wooley, both of whom had small parts in The Outlaw Josey Wales (for good measure, Wooley was a regular for a few years on Rawhide's endless cattle drive), and Dennis Hopper, the Prophet hisself in Hang 'em High. 8)
-
For a new one, how about Errol Flynn?
-
this one is a bit of a stretch someone has to better it,
erroll flynn was in
Kim-1950 with dean stockwell
who was in
married to the mob-1988 with michelle pfeffier
who was in
the fabuolus baker boys-1989 with jeff bridges........
-

Ah, but Dean Stockwell was also in Blue Velvet with Dennis "Hang 'Em High" Hopper!
But there is a one-stepper. The lengthy one :o was in The Warriors (1955) which featured the treasurable Sir Michael Hordern. He, you will remember as kindly old buffer on the radio to Richard Burton in Where Eagles Dare: "Broadsword calling Danny boy!"
-
Dean Martin
-
Dino was in The Cannonball Run with Burt Reynolds of City Heat fame (or infamy). For good measure, it also featured country singer Mel Tillis, who was in Every Which Way but Loose. 8)
-
New one: George Sanders.
-
The original Mr Smooth was in an all but forgotten Brit flik called A Touch of Larceny with Peter Barkworth - one of the spys in Where Eagles Dare.
-
Next: South African born actress Hildegard Neil.
(http://www.a-i-m.net/Images/Hildegard%20Neil2.jpg)
-
ok another long one, but she apprently starred in:
The man who haunted himself,(1970) with roger moore,
who was in (1) The wild geese with burton(eagles) and harris(unforgiven) AND was in
(2) Shout at the devil with lee marvin(wagon),
but i bet there's a quicker one step
-
Not bad, LB. There is a single stepper - she worked with a British actor who worked with Clint in the early eighties.
He is now much better known as a TV detective - one half of a pair! ;)
-
Aw Daisy, that's giving it away!
She was in the 1973 version of Antony and Cleopatra which also featured Warren 'Dalziel' Clarke and Freddie Jones who were both in Firefox.
Richard Bradford
-
Richard Bradford is in The Untouchables with Kevin "Perfect World" Costner...
And talking of Robin Hoods: The new one is Richard Greene!
(http://www.times1190.freeserve.co.uk/greene.gif)
All together now!
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen,
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men,
Feared by the bad, loved by the good,
Robin Hood! Robin Hood! Robin Hood!
He called the greatest archers to a tavern on the green,
They vowed to help the people of the king,
They handled all the trouble on the English country scene,
And still found plenty of time to sing.
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen,
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men,
Feared by the bad, loved by the good,
Robin Hood! Robin Hood! Robin Hood!
-
Greene, oddly enough given his name, was in Otto Preminger's costumer Forever Amber (1947) with John Russell (Pale Rider's Stockburn) as "Black Jack Mallard." Just ducky!
The actress who played the "Countess of Castlemaine" in that had an strangely familiar name ... Natalie Draper. Hmm, wonder if she was Evelyn's mom? ;)
-
For a new one ... Beulah Bondi
-
The lady who always seemed to be James Stewart's Ma was in The Big Fisherman with a young John Saxon of Joe Kidd infamy.
Have we had Phil Silvers?
-
Bilko was in The Cheap Detective (1978) with Marsha Mason (Heartbreak Ridge) and Madeline Kahn (City Heat). He was also alongside Ms Kahn in Won Ton Ton, the dog who saved Hollywood (1976).
In 1968 he was in Buona Sera, Mrs Campbell with Telly Savalas (Kellys Heroes).
Next Ron Howard
-
Ron Howard was in 'Welcome to Hollywood' with Dennis Hopper who was in 'Hang 'Em High'.
Next: Evan Rachel Wood
-
Evan Rachel Wood was in Detour (1998) which starred Jeff Fahey (White Hunter, Black Heart).
Next: Patrick Stewart
-
Patrick Stewart was in John Boorman's Excalibur (1981) with Liam Neeson, the sleazy film director in The Dead Pool.
New one: Wendell Corey
-
Wendell Corey was in 'Sorry, wrong number'' with Ed Begley who was in 'Hang 'Em High'.
Next: M. Night Shyamalan
-
M. Night Shyamalan was in his own movie Signs along with Mel Gibson who played himself in Casper in which Clint also had a cameo.
Next: Noel Coward
-
Noel Coward was in The Astonished Heart (1949) with Michael Hordern, of ever-increasing Where Eagles Dare fame ... ;)
Did we have Douglas Fairbanks Jr. yet?
-
O f course, it's that big guy Victor McLaglen again! Star of Godiva - and Gunga Din (1939) with the smooth Dougie 2.
Howsabout Michael Jackson?
-
Real easy, Daisy, Michael Jackson was in Men in Black II with Tommy Lee "Space Cowboys" Jones.
For a new one ... Douglas Fairbanks Jr. again, only this time, find someone who was in a film with Fairbanks and also in a film in which Eastwood starred/co-starred. Not one of his "incunabula"! ;)
-
;D
Let me make this absolutely clear:
It was never, never, never my intention to mention or draw attention to Clint's incunabula. I know he is rightly sensitive about this affliction, has never exposed it in public and doesn't like folks talking about it on the internet.
It was shameful and remiss of me to even refer to it tangentially.
Cut off my hands if you like. Tape over my keyboard. But... Please forgive me!
I've been warned many times in the past - but, you know me: It all goes incunabula and out the other....
;)
-
KC's a professional when it comes to managing incunabula. Hours and hours spent on it every week...
KC, you're going to that Eastwood Convention right? I'll be there, and I'll bring along some incunabula of my own for you to file... you know, so you don't miss work too much. (http://home.swfla.rr.com/mattreigns/instantshock.gif) ;D
-
Incunabula ... drool ... (http://forums.nyyfans.com/images/smilies/drool.gif) ;)
-
To answer the question - again: Dougie has a walk on - uncredited - in Chase a Crooked Shadow (1957); down the cast list is British actor Alan Tilvern and he played "Air Marshal Kutuzov" in Firefox.
Does that do it? The fact that Fairbanks' connection is an uncredited walk-on is a little unsatisfying. It's driving me bonkers! ???
-
Aha!!!!! :D
(http://www.whereeaglesdare.com/images/ports/port_08.gif)
That great player of Nazis Anton Diffring who sneers and menaces through countless war movies - including Where Eagles Dare! - appeared with Dougie in a flick called State Secret in 1950.
I did it! I finally did it... :'( :-[
-
Good work, Daisy! 8)
There's another connection via the same two movies ... Olga Lowe played "Lt. Anne-Marie Kernitser" in Where Eagles Dare, and she was also in State Secret with "Dougie." That was the one I had in mind, but yours was just as good, so you're up! :D
*I note that Diffring was born in 1918 in my namesake town, Koblenz, Germany (once spelled Coblentz).
-
Susannah York is another one-stepper...
-
Susannah York was in Superman 1 & 2 with Gene Hackman.
Here's another easy one..Zouzou
-
Zouzou was in the execrable S*P*I*E*S which Donald Sutherland should have been ashamed of starring in.
Uncle Don is of course a two time Eastwood co-star - to date!
New one: Sophia Loren
-
Sophia Loren was in "Prêt-à-Porter", which also included Kim Basinger (http://www.smilies.nl/love.gif) :-*
Kim Basinger was in "The Man Who Loved Women" with Burt Reynolds, who was in "City Heat".
Next one: Gloria Grahame
-
Xichado, you didn't need to go so far with Sophia Loren (though I'm sure you didn't mind! :o ;) )
Sophia was in Brass Target (1978) with both George Kennedy (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction) and Patrick McGoohan (Escape from Alcatraz). ;)
-
Gloria was the dame that got the hot coffee in the kisser from a snarling Lee "Wandrin' Star" Marvin in Lang's The Big Heat.
A great movie.
New one: Raymond Burr
-
Burr played a character with the irresistible name of "Cash Larsen" in Secret of Treasure Mountain (1956) with William Prince (The Gauntlet, Bronco Billy).
Be back with a new one shortly, I've got a bottom of the ninth, tie game to attend to ... :o
-
For a new one ... Gloria Grahame!
(http://ia.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/64/65/22m.jpg)
-
???
Didn't I just do her, KC?
You want her done again, but differently?
???
-
Oops ... I'm sorry, Daisy, guess I'm not paying attention. I think we've done most of the great old time movie stars by now, and the new ones are just too easy.
How about Sidney Poitier? There are a couple of one steppers for him I found right off the bat. I wonder if anyone will find those, or others?
(And no fair using his daughter ... Sydney Tamiia Poitier ... and her appearance in True Crime as a link. ;) )
-
That's ok, KC - old age catches up with us all, I guess! ;D ;)
The one that springs to mind straight off is Duel at Diablo, that savage spaghetti influenced western starring Sid and Jimmy Garner. Also featured is Dennis Weaver - coincidently TVs version of Coogan!
The other one needs checking...
-
The other one needs checking...
And I was right! Andrew Robinson appears in lovely Sid's comeback movie from the late eighties: Deadly Pursuit.
New one: Roy Kinnear (very easy!)
-
Roy Kinnear was in Juggernaut (1974) with Richard 'English Bob' Harris, who was in Unforgiven (1992).
Next: Monica Bellucci
-
Nobody wants to take a shot?
Monica Bellucci
-
(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00004ZDFL.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg) ;)
New one: Annabella
(http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Mptv/1199/10455_0002.jpg)
-
I clearly dont see a connection there KC. ::)
:D ;D 8) :P
-
I thought I heard someone say that both Hackman and Freeman were in some Eastwood movie or other! ;D
Of course ... I could be wrong! :o ;)
-
I dont know... seems pretty ify to me. I know there was some guys in Unforgiven who looked like Gene Hackman and Morgan Freeman, but I highly doubt it was them. And Absolute Power? That didnt look like Hackman at all.
Im thinking your cheating your way outta this one... but I'll give it to you anyway.
-
"In a world of secrets, the truth is never what it seems!" :o ;)
-
Annabella was in "13 Rue Madeleine" with E.G. Marshall (Absolute Power)
(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008AOTF.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)
-
Very good, Sport! 8)
Got a new one? :D
-
What about Jonhy Mack Brown? ;)
(http://www.surfnetinc.com/chuck/brown6.jpg)
I can think about a few one steppers for Jonhy M. Brown, and any will be fine...
... but the one I have in mind involves a character named "Clint" (extra peanuts for this one) :)
-
I believe the film you are referring to would be Prairie Express made in 1947 and starring Johnny Mack Brown. Down the cast list and playing a character named Deputy Clint is Hank Worden who was in Every which way but loose and Bronco Billy.
Can I have Macadamia nuts please........ ;D
Next.....have we had Greta Garbo yet?
-

Well done.
-
The last starring role for "Den gudomliga" (as the Swedes call her: the Divine One) was in Cukor's underappreciated Two-Faced Woman (1941). Playing "Miss Ruth Ellis, Larry's Secretary" ("Larry" was the Melvyn Douglas role) was none other than Ruth Gordon ... "Ma" in Every Which Way but Loose and Any Which Way You Can.
New one coming up shortly. :D
-
Try Frank Gorshin.
-
Frank Gorshins first big screen role was in The Proud and Profane in 1956 which starred William Holden (Breezy).
He was also in Ring of Fire in 1961 with David Janssen (Lafayette Escadrille) and Uphill all the Way in 1986 with Glen Campbell (Any which way you can).
Recently he was in Luck of the draw with Dennis Hopper (Hang 'em High).
Next .. Kris Kristofferson
-
Kris Kristofferson was in Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973), Fire Down Below (1997), Cisco Pike (1972) with Harry Dean Stanton who was in Kelly's Heroes.
NEXT: Amanda Peet
-
Amanda Peet was in High Crimes with Morgan Freeman (Unforgiven). She also had parts in Simply Irresistible and Playing by Heart both with Patricia Clarkson (The Dead Pool).
Next....Hulk Hogan
-
Yes she was. And my, oh my, was she ever looking good in that.
Anyway, The Hulkster was in Muppets From Space (1999) with Pat Hingle (Hang 'em High (1968), The Gauntlet (1977), Sudden Impact (1983))
NEXT: Hugh Jackman
-
easy...hugh jackman was in Swordfish with Don Cheadle who was in boogie nights with burt reynolds who was in cityheat with Clinty E. ;D
-
True, true, but usaully we go for one steppers. Can you find a one stepper linking Hugh Jackman to Clint Eastwood? It cant be THAT hard...
-
you are right Nightwing...how about hugh jackman was in someone like you with ashley judd who was in Kiss the girls with Morgan Freman who was in unforgiven with Clinty E..wait...damn that's still to many moves..hmmmm...must think harder
-
Got it!! Hugh jackman was in "someone like you" with Bradley whitford...who was in Perfect world.....yeeee haaaaa..now i can go to bed peacefully...hehehehe ;D
-
Wait...correction...sorry..hugh jackman was in kAte and Leopold with Bradley Whitford..who appeared in "a perferct world"..whooo..saved that God the embarrassement...lol
-
scootyes89 you got another one for us?
-
ok...how about Patrick Stewart.
-
I just watched an episode of Enterpise that featured Zefram Cochrane who was played James Cromwell in Star Trek: First Contact (1996) which Patrick Stewart was in, obviously so, since he played the man, Captian Picard. Anyway, James Cromwell was also in Space Cowboys (2000).
NEXT: Amanda Bynes
-
Amanda Bynes, whoever she is, was one of the voice performers in the direct-to-video Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure. Another was Pamelyn Ferdin (of Beguiled fame).
Direct-to-video films, like made-for-TV films, really ought to be out of bounds here, but young Ms. Bynes doesn't seem to have been in much of anything, so I'll let it go. ;)
Be back with a new one shortly. :)
-
Its ok KC ;D, I'll accept it and wont bother fighting it like that Monica Belluci one. I still dont see the connection.... :P
-
Be back with a new one shortly. :)
Have you run out of Swedish Actors KC ? ;D
-
Oooooooops ... :o
How about the great Peter Stormare?
-
Peter Stormare was in The Big Lebowski (1998) with Jeff Bridges who was in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974).

-
Trey Parker was in Newsies (1992) with Jo Ann Harris of Beguiled fame ... or infamy ... ;) ... and Robert Duvall (Joe Kidd).
How about Bobby Darin?
-
Bobby Darin was in Captain Newman, M.D. (1963) with Robert Duvall who was in Joe Kidd.
NEXT: Bryan Singer (let me know if this one is ok. ;))
-
NEXT: Bryan Singer (let me know if this one is ok. ;))
Do you mean because he's a director, not an actor? (Aside from an uncredited bit in some Star Trek thingie or other.)
I guess it's OK, Nightwing ... but then there has to be a connection to a film that Clint directed, and didn't act in! ;)
And ... there is. Singer directed The Usual Suspects (1995), which featured Kevin Spacey (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil) ... and just for good measure, Dan Hedaya (Tightrope).
Is that OK?
-
Actually I was going with an acting credit. But I figured there would be nothing there. If you want you can take this one, or I'll get another one.
-
Hmmmm, well, he doesn't have any acting credits, except for the one Star Trek role, for which he strictly speaking doesn't have an acting credit either, since he was ... "uncredited" ... and a few turns as "himself," which isn't acting ... is it?
However that may be ... Bryan Singer played "himself" in Cannes Man (1996), which starred Seymour Cassel ("Joe," the punk who annoyed Julie, in Coogan's Bluff) ... and a long string of other "Himselfs" and "Herselfs" with Eastwood credits, namely: Lara Flynn Boyle (The Rookie), Ann Cusack (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil), Dennis Hopper (Hang 'em High), John Malkovich (In the Line of Fire), Chris Penn (Pale Rider) ... and Nino Cerruti, who's done most of Clint's costumes since In the Line of Fire.
-
Ah... yah, you can have it. :D

He's still going strong BTW - spotted this year in an episode of Midsommer Murders. :)

Thanks, Daisy! That's good to know. Was The Long, the Short and the Tall the prequel to The Good, the Bad and the Ugly? ;)

-
Nice work, Nightwing. That wasn't the one I found, but it's just as good.
Got a new one?
-
Lets try...
Huey Lewis ;D
But one condition. Try and find an actress this time. ;)
-
??? Who the Sam Hill is Huey Lewis? Anyways, I've found a few guys who can make the link from Huey to Clint, but no gals, as yet. Is this another thing where we have to look into the movies where he played "himself" (whoever he is)?
-
You've never heard of Huey Lewis and the News KC? :o
They provided the theme song The power of Love for the first Back to the Future movie in which Huey had a one line uncredited part. Also in BTTF was Frances Lee McCain who was way down the cast list in True Crime.
-
If that's acceptable let's try and find;
Thora Hird
-
Good enough for me Red.
KC, Huey Lewis is pop singer from the 80's and 90's. I cant beleive you havent heard of Huey Lewis and The News. Wow.
Anyway, he was in several movies. Back to the Future (1985), Short Cuts (1993), Duets (2000), Amazon Women on the Moon (1987), Shadow of Doubt (1998), Sphere (1998), .com for Murder (2001)
-
As I've said more than once in this context, I don't listen to "audio product" ... just music. ;)

Does it involves a couple of immortal characters and an uncredited actor in In The Line Of Fire?
???
-
Does it involves a couple of immortal characters and an uncredited actor in In The Line Of Fire?
???
Geeze, I forgot about this.
Ah... sure?
If you want Xichado, you can just post another actor/actresses name and bring this game back into the limelight. ;) :)
-
Hey Brendan, :)
I was only able to find the following link
Donnie Yen was in Highlander: Endgame (I love the tv show but the movies just put me to sleep >:( ) with Ian Paul Cassidy. And he is listed at IMDB as a Secret Service Agent (uncredited) in In The Line Of Fire.
What about Bela Lugosi?
-
Hey its "good enough too pass". Inside joke.
But really, its cool someone got this. Good job.
-
Ooh! Ooh! I know Bela Legosi without looking it up! (But I will to check the details.)
Legosi was in the allegedly "worst movie ever made" ... and cult fave ... Plan 9 from Outer Space (1959), directed by the immortal Ed Wood. Receiving top billing in this classic of ineptitude was none other than Eastwood "ensemble" member Gregory Walcott (Joe Kidd, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction, Every Which Way But Loose).
-
For a new one, how about Nastassja Kinski?
Sorry if she's been used before ... It's hard to remember 'em all!
-
Nastassja Kinski was in Paris, Texas with Harry Dean Stanton and he was in Kelly's Heroes.
Was that the one you had in mind, KC? :D
-
No, but ... in the nature of this game ... it will work just as well! ;D
Got a new one, Xichado?

Maybe Certain Fury (1985) with Irene Cara from City Heat?

-
Well I'll have to look it it up rather than go by memory.

I am going to assume that is correct and say....
Paul Newman

R. Lee Ermey... going once, going twice...

-
Boris Karloff.......... ;D

Gots me one:
Jurgen Prochnow was in Dune (1984) with Everett McGill who was in Heartbreak Ridge.

-
Next one:
Amália Rodrigues :)
-
Xichado, are you looking for a one-stepper? I can find two-steppers, but I haven't found a one-stepper yet ... :-[
-
Hey KC,
There is a one-stepper, which can be found in Clin't early days as a movie actor. ;)
-
I gots it!
The link is Kuniko Miyake ... who was in both Wim Wenders's Bis ans Ende der Welt (1991), in which Amália had a bit as a "Woman in Street Car," and Escapade in Japan (1957), the next to last of ten films Eastwood had insignificant roles in before he landed a fairly major part in Ambush in Cimarron Pass ...
Good one, Xichado (even if we "usually" exclude those early films when playing this game)! You connected Portugal, Japan and Clint in one easy step ...
I'm afraid my knowledge of fado is woefully small ... I take it Amália Rodrigues is a legend in that art form?
-
For a new one ... how about the German star of the 50s and 60s (and one-time wife of singer Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau) ... Ruth Leuwerik?
(http://www.prisma-online.de/image/58/mmfroebus_01165358.jpeg)
There is at least one one-stepper, and it's not via Clint's "early days"! ;)
-
You're GREAT!
The one-stepper I had in mind was a different one though ;). Amália Rodrigues was in Les Amants du Tage (1955) with Marcel Dalio and he had a role in Lafayette Escadrille (1958) with Clint.
even if we "usually" exclude those early films when playing this game
:o ooops! Sorry, I didn't know. I'll keep it in mind :).
Amália was/is a legend. She is the soul, the heart and the voice of Fado and of the portuguese soul. Her (small) movie career was also very good.
-
Gee, so I guess I'M the one who connected Portugal, Japan and Clint in a single step! :o
Have you seen Les Amants du Tage? I noticed someone on the IMDb plaintively remarking that he had seen it some forty years ago and had been searching for it ever since ... "hoping to find out if it is as good as I remember."
-
Ruth Leuwerik was in Ludwig II (1955) with Marianne Koch, who was in A Fistful of Dollars.
NEXT: Michael Madsen
-
That one's pretty easy, Brendan ... Madsen is in Kill Bill with Lucy Liu, who was in True Crime.
-
New one: Lila Kedrova.
-
Lila Kedrova was in Testament, along with Butch Haines himself, Kevin Costner (A Perfect World) :)
How about Gregory Peck?
-
No fewer than three once or future Clint co-stars joined Gregory Peck in Mackenna's Gold (1969) ... a project Eastwood himself had been sought for, but that he turned down in favor of Hang 'em High. They are: Telly Savalas (Kelly's Heroes), Lee J. Cobb (Coogan's Bluff) ... and old Tuco himself, Eli Wallach.
-
New one: Richard Jaeckel.
-
Richard Jaeckel was in Twighlights Last Gleaming with Charles McGraw who was in Hang em High.
Norman Wisdom
-
Norman Wisdom was in Double X: The Name of the Game (1992) with Bernard Hill, who played the troubled Warden in True Crime.
-
New one: Toshirô Mifune, who starred in Yojimbo, the film that indirectly launched Eastwood's career. There are at least two one-steppers.
-
Toshiro Mifune was in Grand Prix with James Garner who went into space with Clint in Space Cowboys..
Thats one of em....
-
Stephen Rea
You a Wisdom fan KC ?
-
Sorry to say, I'm not, Gant ... :o
Stephen Ray was in Michael Collins (1996), which starred Liam Neeson (The Dead Pool). He was also in The Crying Game (1992), which undeservedly won the Best Original Screenplay Oscar over Unforgiven, with Forest Whitaker, who starred in Bird, but I guess we aren't including Eastwood's "director-only" efforts in this game.
Gant, why don't you go again? I'm still feeling down from last night's World Series loss. Going out to drown my sorrows in a cup of coffee.
-
Well done... different to mine, I was going from Rea to Timothy Spall in the excellent Life is Sweet and then on to White Hunter..
Sorry to hear your team aint doin' so well. Mine drew today making us top of the premiership ;D so am in celebratory mood...
I strongly urge you to check out Wisdom.. the true king of comedy ;D

Anyone got a one-stepper? :)
-
Anyone got a one-stepper? :)
I do!!
Dean Jagger was in Dark City (1950) and Firecreek (1968) with Ed Begley who was in Hang 'Em High.
You can take it though eustressor. ;) 8)
-
Um, OK. Bob Hope :)
-
Bob Hope makes an uncredited appearance as himself in The Five Pennies which also features Harry Guardino who was in Dirty Harry amongst others...
can I have that...... ;)
-
Nice. That's fine with me Gant, lay it on us :)
-
Jack Nance
-
You'll have to do better than that, Gant! Jack Nance was in City Heat .... he played Aram Strossell, the bookkeeper. So, NO degrees of separation! :o
-
ooops ! :-[
Shucks..if you wern't such a big fan of City Heat I might have gotten away with it. :)
-
ok........ Ringo Starr.
-
Starr was in Caveman (1981) with Evan C. Kim, who was Harry's partner in The Dead Pool.
-
How about Elisabeth Flickenschildt?

Liz was in a Nuit d'or with Klaus Kinski who was in 47 million movies. One of em being For A Few Dollars More with our man.
-
Peter Cushing
-
Cushing played Memnon in Alexander the Great (1956) with Richard "Alex" Burton (Where Eagles Dare) ... oh, and Michael Hordern (Demosthenes) was there too ... ;)
-
How about that French heartthrob of the 40s and 50s ... Gérard Philipe? There's at least one one-stepper.
-
gee this ones tough......... ???
-
Gee, Gant, I didn't think I could stump you! :o
I'll give you a hint: the person who forms the "link" is not French ...
-
I am most definitely stumped on this one..
Jeees.. I feel like I know the guys career inside and out.
-
We're looking for a one-stepper with the great Gérard Philipe ...
(http://frenchfilms.topcities.com/gphilipe_1.jpg)
Would anyone like another hint here?
-
Okay, it's my first post in this thread... let's see if I do this right.
The connection is La Fièvre monte à El Pao which co-starred José Chávez who was also Horatio in Two Mules for Sister Sara.
-
That's great, Matt! That wasn't the one I found, but it works just as well.
For fun ... can anyone find an Italian actor who was in a single Eastwood film (yes, a Western) ... and in a film with Philipe?
Matt, you get to post a new one, in any case. :D
-
Cool, I did it right. ;D
If anyone can come up with KC's answer, post away. Until then, here's the next:
Tilda Swinton :-*
-
You a Tilda fan, Matt? ;) I found a couple one steppers for her, but I'll let someone else have a go ... Gant? :D
-
Yup, I like her. :)
I also had a feeling she wouldn't have been used before in this thread, and I didn't want to read through the previous 20 or so pages to make sure I didn't repeat someone.
You found a few one-steppers already? :o Man, you're good.
-
Tilda Swinton was in Adaptation with Meryl "Francesca" Streep, of Bridges of Madison County fame.
I'll have to leave further one-steppers with the great Gérard Phillipe to those greater than myself. I have to echo Gant's remarks, as I've been through a fair share of his catalog already to no avail. Kudos to you both, KC and Matt, for coming up with and solving that one, respectively...
"Game over, Man!"
Bill Paxton
-
That works! I had found a link to Tilda with Toby Stephens of Space Cowboys, who was in Orlando with her. I've been meaning to see Adaptation for a while now. Maybe now that baseball season is over, I'll be visiting Blockbuster more often.
Bill Paxton was in Titanic with Bernard Hill, who was the Warden in True Crime.
If that's good, I'll need a few minutes to find another actor. They're harder than answering.
-
Okay, here's the next. This young lady is never far from mind:
Penélope Cruz :-*
(Sorry if someone has already asked for this connection.)
-
I cant make a two degree seperation, but i got one here.
Penelope Cruz was in Vanilla Sky with Cameron Diaz who was in The Mask with Jim Carrey who was in the Dead pool.
Brían Blessed
-
"Third wave... DIVE!" ;) Brian Blessed was in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves with Kevin Costner (A Perfect World). However, it appears Penelope Cruz was in Masked and Anonymous with Jeff "Lightfoot" Bridges (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot).
How about that smoldering, dark-haired Swede with the exhilarating smile:
(http://lenaolin.net/por/ibl02.jpg)
Lena Olin :P

And now, how about a Norwegian muse (of the Swedish master, Ingmar Bergman) .... Liv Ullman?
-
Liv Ullman was in Lost Horizon (1973) with George Kennedy and he was in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot and The Eiger Sanction.
Next one: L'enfant sauvage's Françoise Seigner
-
I'm glad that Gerard Philipe one has gone. I was spending way too much time on that one.
OK.. Francoise was in the '82 version of Les Miserables with Jean Piere Bernard who was in The Eiger Sanction..
Ok.. :)
-
Jean-Paul Belmondo
-
Jean-Paul Belmondo was in Il Giorno più corto with Toto who was also in Le Streghe (The Witches). Another one stepper is Les Cent et une nuits de Simon Cinéma with Francisco Rabal who was in Le Streghe as well.
Les Cent et une nuits de Simon Cinéma (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0112654/fullcredits) also includes a cameo of Clint himself! Don't know if that would count as a zero stepper or not. ???
-
Okay, I hope (again) I'm not repeating an actor that's already come up here.
How about.... David Bowie
-
David Bowie played Pontius Pilate in The Last Temptation of Christ (1988), Verna Bloom also had a role in that movie and she was in High Plains Drifter and Honkytonk Man
-
Next one... Judith Anderson
-
Dame Judith was in A Man Called Horse (1970) ... playing, believe it or not, "Buffalo Cow Head (mother of Yellow Hand)." Also in that film were ...
- Richard Harris (Unforgiven)
- Dub Taylor (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot)
- Eddie Little Sky (Paint Your Wagon)
-
How about the controversial German star of stage and screen ... and one-time son-in-law of Thomas Mann ... Gustaf Gründgens? There's at least one one-stepper. ;)
-
Gustaf Gründgens was in Ohm Krüger with Wolfgang Lukschy who played John Baxter in A Fistful of Dollars.
JOHN BAXTER: I saw the whole thing. You killed all four of them. You'll pay all right. You'll be strung up.
JOE: Who are you?
JOHN BAXTER: I'm John Baxter, sheriff.
JOE: Yeah, well, if you're the sheriff, you'd better get those men underground.
Here's an interesting little tidbit I learned about Lukschy from his IMDb page (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0525742/)
He was the German dubbing voice of Gary Cooper and John Wayne.
That's pretty cool to know. 8)
For the next one, I did a forum search for this actress and she didn't come up in this thread, so I hope that's reliable (the search function seldom is) and I hope I'm not repeating one. She's another favorite of mine, Ms. Katharine Hepburn.
-
Hepburn was in The Trojan Women (1970) with Geneviève Bujold and she was in one of Matt's favourites... Tightrope ;D
-
Next one... Ruth Roman
-
I`m not sure if this is right way to play this but Ruth Roman was in film Rebel In Town(1956)with Ben Johnson in small part and Ben Johnson was with Eastwood in Hang`Em high.
Did I get this right ???
-
Oh and if I got it right here`s next one Sean Connery
-
I'll bet there's more than one way to solve this one, but Sir Sean was in Hunt For Red October with the talented character actor Fred Dalton Thompson, a sometime senator from Tennessee who also appeared in In The Line Of Fire :D
Remember the early days of MTV? How about Mickey's unrequited cheerleading paramour, Toni Basil?
-
I remember those days... but I wish I could forget that song. :-\
Toni Basil was in Village of the Giants with a young Tisha Sterling who went on to portraying the teenage hippy, Linny Raven, in Coogan's Bluff.
Will be back soon with the next.
-
Speaking of the old days... how about the guy who played Starsky in my favorite TV show, Starsky and Hutch, Paul Michael Glaser. (No using the David Soul connection, since that's TV)
-
They had the coolest music and the coolest car. Starsky starred in 1980's Phobia alongside Kenneth Welsh, who was in Absolute Power.
If you liked "Mickey", you must have loved... "Ricky" ;)
Weird Al Yankovic
-
Weird Al Yankovic was in The Naked Gun films as was George Kennedy and ofcourse George Kennedy was in Clint`s Eiger Sanction and The Thunderbolt And The Lightfoot.
-
Here`s the next one Yaphet Kotto
-
Yaphet Kotto was in Brubaker with the following Eastwood co-stars:
Morgan Freeman (Unforgiven)
Jane Alexander (City Heat)
Matt Clark (The Beguiled, The Outlaw Josey Wales and Honkytonk Man)
J.C. Quinn (Heartbreak Ridge)
James Dukas (Uncredited role as hospital doctor in Coogan's Bluff)
-
Next....
(http://home.swfla.rr.com/mattreigns/marilyn.jpeg)
Marilyn Monroe
-
Marilyn Monroe was in John huston`s Misfits with Eli Wallach who was in GBU as Tuco.
Next Paul Newman ???
-
Instead of using George Kennedy again, who was in Cool Hand Luke with Paul Newman, I'll use the Scorpio connection. :o
Paul Newman was in The Drowning Pool with Andy Robinson of Dirty Harry.
-
Next...
Benicio Del Toro
-
Instead of using George Kennedy again, who was in Cool Hand Luke with Paul Newman, I'll use the Scorpio connection. :o
Paul Newman was in The Drowning Pool with Andy Robinson of Dirty Harry.
As allways you`re right Matt but the answer I was looking for was Lee J Cobb.He was with Eastwood in Coogan`s Bluff and with Newman in Exodus.
-
Benicio Del Toro was in The Hunted with Tommy Lee Jones who was in Eastwood`s Spacecowboys.
-
Next Ellen Barkin ???
-
Ellen Barkin played Calamity Jane in Walter Hill's Wild Bill (1995), opposite Jeff Bridges (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot) as Wild Bill hisself. Also in the cast was Bruce Dern (Hang 'em High).
-
How about another famous Calamity Jane ... Jane Russell? (See Bob Hope's The Paleface (1948). ;)
-
How about another famous Calamity Jane ... Jane Russell? (See Bob Hope's The Paleface (1948). ;)
Jane Russell was in film named Waco(1966)with John Agar who was with Eastwood in Tarantula and Revenge Of The Creature...those must be great films ;D
-
James Caan was in Godfather III with Eli "Tuco" Wallach.
No he wasn`t.James Caan was only in Godfather I and Godfather II.
I was reading earlier pages of this thread and found out that Paul Newman was already used(page 14)before me :-[
Anyway here`s next one...STEVE MARTIN
-
Jane Russell was in film named Waco(1966)with John Agar who was with Eastwood in Tarantula and Revenge Of The Creature...those must be great films ;D
That's great, Hemlock! Actually, I was hoping someone would find a connection via an actor other than Agar. We've got a semi-serious rule around here not to use those pre-stardom films of Clint's. But anyway ... Steve Martin was in the wonderfully titled Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982) with Reni "Chico" Santoni of Dirty Harry fame.
-
KC, for some bonus peanuts I'll give you another connection for the voluptuous Ms. Russell. :)
(http://www.soltec.net/~java/jr01.jpg)
The not-so-plain-Jane was in Foxfire with Mara Corday who was in Tarantula that same year (1955) with a barely recognizable Clint. (I know... I'm getting to the post-Dollars films now ;) ) as well as the following:
The Gauntlet
Sudden Impact (In her most memorable performance in an Eastwood film as the diner waitress who pours the sugar)
Pink Cadillac
The Rookie
I'd like to post a picture of Ms. Corday, who was every bit as beautiful as Jane back in her day, but... I don't think the picture would make it through the censors. Wow! :o :-* Pour some sugar on me.... :D
Forget the peanuts, KC. A glass of ice water might be better. :-[
-
Good work, Matt! I was looking for the Mara Corday connection. :D
(http://www.crwater.com/image/ice%20water%20pour.jpg)
Why don't you post the next one? ;)
-
Thanks, KC, I needed that. I think I've recovered enough to post the next. A forum search for this actress came up empty, so here's hoping I'm not repeating her:
Bette Davis
-
Guess you don't need any ice water for her, huh? One of Ms. Davis's final roles was in The Whales of August (1987) and also in that one was Tisha Sterling (Coogan's Bluff) ... playing, oddly, a character called "Young Tisha."
-
How about a frequent Davis co-star (Jezebel and Dark Victory, to mention two) ... George Brent? Looking for a one-stepper, so no fair going via Bette. ;)
-
As attractive as Bette was as a young woman, after seeing What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? .... no ice water, or even tap water, will ever be necessary. :o
Good work, KC, with the Tisha Sterling connection. :D
-
This probably isn't the one you're looking for, but here goes anyway:
George Brent was in Illegal Entry with James Nolan, who is the unfortunate liquor store owner who is beaten and robbed by Scorpio in Dirty Harry.
-
That works just fine, Matt ...
Do you have some sort of master list of all Clint's co-stars? You seem to come up with these really fast lately! :o :D ;)
-
Nope, but I've seen the cast lists often enough to know a lot of them.... and other times, a name just looks more familiar than the others, and sure enough.... they turn out to be in one of the films.
Okay, here's the next... the beautiful Claire Forlani
-
Claire Forlani was in The Rock with Ed Harris (Absolute Power)
-
(Gee, I'm running out of names :D...)
What about the great Rossy de Palma?
-
Almodóvar favorite Rossy De Palma was in Mike Figgis's The Loss of Sexual Innocence (1999) with Bernard Hill (True Crime). I was hoping I'd be able to link her via one of Clint's Spanish or Italian co-stars from the Leone films, but that's the best I can do ...
How about a Fassbinder favorite ... Irm Hermann?
-
She's in the 1978 Woyzeck directed by Werner Herzog. It stars Herzog regular Klaus Kinski - ol' hunchback from AFOD.
-
Nice going, Daisy! Have you got a new one for us? :D
-
Hi KC. :)
Just been watching him in a movie, so...
How about John Phillip Law?
-
John Phillip Law played Baron Manfred von Richthofen in Roger Corman's The Red Baron (1971). Also along for the ride was Don Stroud (Coogan's Bluff, Joe Kidd).
It's nice to hear from you again, Daisy! :D
-
New one: Irene Dunne.
-
New one: Irene Dunne.
She was in It Grows On Trees(1952)with Richard Crenna who was in Hot Shots-Part Deux(1993)with Charlie Sheen(The Rookie).
-
Here`s the next one Jim Hutton ???
-
How about this one....
Jim Hutton was in Major Dundee with Richard Harris, who was in Unforgiven.
(I first ran along Never Too Late where Jim Hutton was in the cast with Pamelyn Ferdin (Amy in The Beguiled) but since she was listed as "uncredited" I didn't figure that was a very strong connection. I do like using those actors that aren't among the more commonly connected in this game.)
Next...
Burgess Meredith
-
Burgess Meredith was in Clay Pigeon (1972) with Telly Savalas (Kelly's Heroes)
New one: Paul Douglas, saw him today in Clash by Night (1952)
-
Ignorant armies, Xichado? ;)
Paul Douglas was in the baseball flick It Happens Every Spring with two future Hang 'Em High cast members: Ed Begley and Alan Hale Jr.
Anyone ever see It Happens Every Spring? Right about now I'd take anything having to do with baseball ... :-\
-
For a new one, how about Leslie Nielsen? Just saw him play the President of the United States in Silly Movie 3, I mean Scary Movie 3. ;)
-
Leslie Nielson was the ill-fated skipper of the U.S.S. Poseidon in The Poseidon Adventure, starring Gene Hackman, Unforgiven's Little Bill Daggett.
This is at least the second connection I can remember finding through The Poseidon Adventure. Gotta love those all-star cast 70's disaster flicks :D
-
How about my favorite Moroccan/Spanish/French actor?
Jean Reno.
-
Jean Reno was in the Michelangelo Antonioni-Wim Wenders collaboration Al di là delle nuvole (Beyond the Clouds, 1995) with John (In the Line of Fire) Malkovich.
-
How about British leading man Robert Donat?
-
I found a two-stepper. Is there a one-step solution you know about, KC?
Robert Donat was in Perfect Strangers with Glynis Johns, who appeared in that great Christmas movie, The Ref with Judy Davis, who was in Absolute Power.
Completely OT, but I watch The Ref every Christmas :o :)
Can anyone beat two?
-
There is at least one one-stepper ... can anyone find it? ???
Donat didn't make that many films, so it shouldn't be too hard. ;)
Oops, turned the page, didn't we ... The actor in question is Robert Donat!
-
Found it! :D
Robert Donat was in The Count of Monte Cristo (1934) with Irene Hervey (Play Misty For Me)
-
Very good, Sport!
-
Thanks ;)
Next one: Claudia Cardinale (http://mysmilies.creativesell.net/otn/love/luvlove.gif)
-
That one's not up to your usual standards, Xichado (not the woman :-* , but the degree of difficulty). Without even looking in the IMDb I know La Cardinale starred in Once Upon a Time in the West, and accordingly she shared the screen with quite a few Leone "regulars." Also, I seem to recall she was in Fitzcarraldo (by Werner Herzog) with good ol' FAFDM hunchback Klaus Kinski ...
And sure enough, a glance at the cast list for Once Upon the Time in the West yields these characters who were in OUATITW and also in one or more of the three Leone films that starred Clint: Frank Braña, Antonio Molino Rojo, Al Mulock, Aldo Sambrell, Benito Stefanelli. The Kinski connection via Fitzcarraldo also proves true to my memory of it ... ;)
-
Shucks! You're right.
I had OUATITW in mind as a starting point but I guess the thought of her obscured the rest of the cast and the Leone connections from my mind ::) (I must be having a late 20's hormonal crises... it's just me or it's getting hot in here)
-
Well, most of those guys I named from the cast of OUATITW had pretty small parts, so I could have said I wouldn't count 'em ... and I still would have gotten it with Fitzcarraldo. ;)
New one: Otto Kruger .
-
He was in Cash McCall (1960) with James Garner (Space Cowboys)
Most likely, this is also an easy one: Elsa Lanchester
(http://afm.infinit.net/chro/queens/lanchester003.jpg)
-
Elsa was in Murder by Death with James Cromwell who was taller than Clint in Space Cowboys.... :)
-
OK..howsabout Frank Puglia.....
-
OK..howsabout Frank Puglia.....
He was in The spy In the Green Hat(`66)with Rip Torn(Primo Pitt from City Heat) but that was part of the The Man From U.N.C.L.E series so I`m not sure if it counts.
There`s also film Cry Tough(`59)where Frank Puglia is with John Saxon(Luis Chama from Joe Kidd)
-
This might be easy but here it comes...William Fichtner ???
-
Where has William Fichtner been all my life? He's pushing fifty, and I never heard of him. ???
Anyway, he was in Michael Mann's Heat (1995) with Diane Venora (True Crime) and Dennis Haysbert (Absolute Power).
-
What about the fellow who rejoices in the name of Efrem Zimbalist Jr.?
-
Efrem Zimbalist Jr.?
He was in Hot Shots!(`91)with Charlie Sheen(The Rookie).
Next Frank Sinatra
-
Frankie was in Come Blow Your Horn (1963) with Lee J. Cobb (Coogan's Bluff) ... in The Detective (1968) with Robert Duvall (Joe Kidd) ... and in Some Came Running (1958) and Can-Can (1960) with Shirley MacLaine (Two Mules for Sister Sara) (he was also in several documentaries with Shirley, and she had an uncredited bit as a "Tipsy Girl" in the 1960 Sinatra starrer Ocean's Eleven) ...
And Cannonball Run II (1984), which featured Sinatra as a character called "Frank Sinatra," also included the following Eastwood co-stars: Burt Reynolds (City Heat), Telly Savalas (Kelly's Heroes), Shirley MacLaine again, Catherine Bach (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot). Richard Kiel (Pale Rider), Mel Tillis (Every Which Way But Loose), Dub Taylor (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot) ... I think that's most of them.
-
For a new one, how about that accomplished German actress ... and even more accomplished director, Margarethe von Trotta? (Unlike Clint, I believe she has never directed herself in a film.)
Since many German films are made for TV but released theatrically and/or shown in festivals abroad, I'll allow films labeled "TV" in the IMDb. And there is at least one one-stepper featuring Trotta as an actress ... There may be more among her films as director. ;)
-
Frankie was in Come Blow Your Horn (1963) with Lee J. Cobb (Coogan's Bluff) ... in The Detective (1968) with Robert Duvall (Joe Kidd) ... and in Some Came Running (1958) and Can-Can (1960) with Shirley MacLaine (Two Mules for Sister Sara) (he was also in several documentaries with Shirley, and she had an uncredited bit as a "Tipsy Girl" in the 1960 Sinatra starrer Ocean's Eleven) ...
And Cannonball Run II (1984), which featured Sinatra as a character called "Frank Sinatra," also included the following Eastwood co-stars: Burt Reynolds (City Heat), Telly Savalas (Kelly's Heroes), Shirley MacLaine again, Catherine Bach (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot). Richard Kiel (Pale Rider), Mel Tillis (Every Which Way But Loose), Dub Taylor (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot) ... I think that's most of them.
So the Old blue eyes was too easy ??? ;D ;D
-
Margarethe von Trotta?
She was in movie called Desaster(`73)with Klaus Löwitsch who was General Vladimirov in Firefox.
I`ll have to admit that this was a bit harder than my Sinatra ;D
-
That's what I was looking for, Hemlock ... good work! Next? :D
-
How about Rutger Hauer ???I`ve allways liked him but he has done quite a bit terrible films.
-
Rutger was in Buffy The Vampire Slayer with Donald Sutherland (Kelly's Heroes, Space Cowboys) :)
How about the lovable Irishman, Peter O'Toole?
-
Peter O'Toole was in Becket (which I remember watching in school) with Richard Burton who starred in Where Eagles Dare.
-
The next one:
Wes Craven
-
As an actor, Chris? ???
-
Yeah, and I'm not counting the uncredited cameos he's done from time to time.
-
Hmmm ... according to the IMDb, he only acted in two films that weren't made-for-TV ventures, and I'm not finding a one-stepper there. But he was in the made-for-TV anthology film Body Bags (1993); he appeared in one of the John Carpenter segments, "The Gas Station." And appearing in another segment ("Eye," directed by Tobe Hooper) was John Agar ... he starred in three of Eastwood's "incunabula," namely Revenge of the Creature (1955), Tarantula (1955) and Star in the Dust (1956). (We also have a sort of, kind of rule not to use those pre-starring vehicles in this game ... though it's been broken before. ;) )
Was that what you were looking for, Chris? ???
-
I think I know the one stepper that Chris has in mind... that's because I remember him mentioning the movie (which I also like) but, at IMDB, the movie does not appear listed in Wes Craven's acting career (maybe because he's "playing" himself ???)
The movie is New Nightmare (1994) which also includes John Saxon (Joe Kidd)
-
That might be it ... the IMDb now puts people's appearances as "himself"/"herself" in a separate category (good idea, that).
I noticed that Saxon was in the original Nightmare on Elm Street, but I eliminated that from consideration after Chris said he was looking for him "as an actor." If that's right ... good one, Chris.
-
That's the one, Xichado!
If you look at John Saxon's page, I don't think it lists New Nightmare either. And that credit is lacking from Heather Langenkamps as well. Do you suppose it's because they are playing themselves (even though they're still acting)? Maybe someone oughta let the IMDb in on this.
I see what you're referring to now, KC, how they have the "himself/herself" listed separately.
-
In that case ... we need a new one, Xichado!
-
What about:
Mr. Bill "Bojangles" Robinson? :)
-
Are you looking for a one-stepper? And if so ... are you allowing "archive footage"? Because so far that's the only way I can find one .... :o
-
There`s one-stepper and two-stepper.
Bill"The Bojangles"Robinson was in film named Dixiana(`30)as an "specialty dancer"with E.G.Marshall who was with Eastwood in Absolute Power.
Is this the"archive footage"that you mentioned KC ???
Anyway there´s two-stepper also.Bill Robinson was in film Rebecca Of Sunnybrook(`38)with Shirley Temple and Randolph Scott who was in Ride The High Country(`62)and Buchanan Rides Alone(`58)with L.Q.Jones(Hang`Em High)and in Ride Lonesome(`59) with Lee Van Cleef(GBU,FAFDM)and Lee Marvin(Paint Your Wagon).
-
There`s one-stepper and two-stepper.
Bill"The Bojangles"Robinson was in film named Dixiana(`30)as an "specialty dancer"with E.G.Marshall who was with Eastwood in Absolute Power.
Is this the"archive footage"that you mentioned KC ???
If the IMDb is correct, the Marshall in 1930's Dixiana was not E. G. (forenames possibly Everett Gunnar), born 1910, or as he insisted, 1914 ... who made his film debut in 1945's The House on 92nd Street, according to that same IMDb. Rather, it was Everett Marshall (1901-1965), whom the IMDb credits with only two film roles (the other was in 1935's I Live for Love). So, that's not a one-stepper.
The one I had in mind was via That's Dancing! (1985), which featured archival footage of Robinson and also of Shirley (Two Mules) MacLaine. I really think archival footage shouldn't "count" in this game, however.
I'm sure there are plenty of two-steppers ... there always are ... ;)
-
Are you looking for a one-stepper? And if so ... are you allowing "archive footage"?
Yes, I am looking for a one-stepper and no, not thru "archive footage". :)
Clue: Clint's hairy co-star.
Mr. Bojangles aside. Are we allowed to use Le Streghe (1967) in the game? ???
Yesterday, for about a hour, I tried to find a one-stepper between Clint and Giulietta Masina... I found many two-steppers and the only one-stepper I could find was thru Le Streghe... it almost drove me nut (I mean, just added to my insanity :D).
-
Well, I'm pretty sure Clyde wasn't old enough to have appeared in a picture with Robinson ... but George Chandler (clerk at the DMV in Every Which Way but Loose) was! He appeared (uncredited) in Alan Dwan's One Mile From Heaven (1937) ... which featured "Bojangles" as "Officer Joe."
How about if we say you can use Le Streghe ... but only the segment Clint was in, "Una Sera come le altre"? ;)
-
Oops, guess we need a new one here ... how about the lovely and talented Ida Lupino ... one of the few women directors in the pre-modern era ... or any era, come to think of it. I just saw her excellent The Hitchhiker, a virtually womanless noir chiller, on TCM last night.
(http://www.reelwomen.com/Lupino2.jpg)
For this game, however, I'm looking for a one stepper using her as an actress. 8)
-
Gots one ;D
Ida Lupino was in Lust for Gold (1944) with William Prince (The Gauntlet)
-
New One:
Gloria Hope (1899-1976)
-
Gloria Hope! ??? :o
Are you looking for a one stepper? Because I sure can't find one ... look to be a couple of two steppers, though ...
-
Are you looking for a one stepper? Because I sure can't find one
Yes, always looking for a one-stepper. ;)
Clue (regarding Gloria Hope): The reason why Santa checks his list (http://smilies.crowd9.com/contrib/ruinkai/biggrinsanta.gif)
-
I found a one-stepper through Tarantula, but that doesn't seem to go with your clue ... and we're not using those "incunabula," right? ???
Anyway, it's too nice a day out to ponder this much longer just now ... I'm going out! If someone else can solve it, you are welcome! :-\
-
Oh wait! I found it! One more glance at Ms. Hope's filmography, plus Xichado's clue, did it ... the answer had to be found in Naughty, Naughty! (1918), in which Gloria Hope played "Judith Holmes." Also appearing, as "Prudence Sampson," was Marjorie Bennett ... and fifty years later, she had a memorable cameo as "Mrs. Fowler" (the little old lady who cried rape) in Coogan's Bluff! :o
Whew ... great one, Xichado! I still have to go out and take the air, though, so I won't get around to posting a new one for a little while. :D
-
New one ... Austrian star of stage and screen, Hermann Thimig!
(http://www.cyranos.ch/smthimig.jpg)
-
New one ... Austrian star of stage and screen, Hermann Thimig!
(http://www.cyranos.ch/smthimig.jpg)
Is this too hard? :o
Anyone want a hint? ???
-
Is this too hard? :o
Anyone want a hint? ???
I`ll try this one ;DIt`s not one-stepper(should it be ???)but here it comes:Thimig was in film called Ewiger Walzeger(`54)with Bernhard Wicki who was in Paris,Texas(`83)with Harry Dean Stanton(Kelly`s Heroes).In Ewiger Walzeger was also actor Gert"Goldfinger"Fröbe who was in The Longest Day(`62)with Richard Burton(Where Eagles Dare)
-
Nice try, Hemlock, but there IS a one-stepper ... hint ... it goes through another musical, or actually an operetta.
And that's "Ewiger Walzer" ("The Eternal Waltz") not ... what you said. ;)
-
And that's "Ewiger Walzer" ("The Eternal Waltz") not ... what you said. ;)
OOOPS!I don`t know how those extra G and E got there :-[
Anyway got to try again...and I`ll try to be more careful with my spelling ;D
-
I give up!I found another two stepper but not one-stepper :(
Here it is:Thimig was in The Threepenny Opera(`31)with Vladimir Sokoloff who was in The Magnificent Seven(`60) with Eli Wallach(GBU)and he was also in Cimarron(`60)with L.Q.Jones(Hang`Em High).
I`m a bit curious to know what I have missed since I went through all the films of Hermann Thimig and couln`t found the one you are after KC.
-
There's another two-stepper via Die Dreigroschenoper (The Threepenny Opera) and it involves the great Lotte Lenya ... anyone?
But ... I'd really like to see someone come up with that one-stepper. Another hint: The actor I'm looking for is also Austrian, and he was in two of Clint's earliest films as a star.
-
There's another two-stepper via Die Dreigroschenoper (The Threepenny Opera) and it involves the great Lotte Lenya ... anyone?
Lotte Lenya from Thee Threepenny opera was in Semi-Tough(`77)with Burt Reynolds(City Heat).
So I didn`t give up after all but I still can`t find the actor you´re looking for KC...actually I`m starting to think that you made him up ;D
-
I'm back and I gots it !!! ;D
Hermann Thimig was in Der Fünfminutenvater (1951) with Joseph Egger and he was in A Fistful of Dollars (1964) and For a Few Dollars More (1965). :)
-
FINALLY!!!
Thimig and Egger were also together in no fewer than three other pictures ... the one I found first is Im weißen Rößl (1935) ... which is one of several film versions of an operetta by Ralph Benatzky known in English as The White Horse Inn ... and the other two are Die Goldene Fessel (1944) and another musical film, Eine Nacht in Venedig (1953).
Got a new one, Xichado? Make it hard this time! ;)
-
Next One...
Richard Benedict
-
Richard Benedict was in Winged Victory (1944) with"Lt. McElroy" from Coogan's Bluff ... Lee J. Cobb.
He was also in Ocean's Eleven (1960) with another "star" of Coogan's Bluff ... Marjorie Bennett once again, the "little old lady charging rape." ;)
-
This one shouldn't be too hard ... she didn't make very many movies. The indelible ... Tallulah Bankhead.
-
Got it.. ;D
She's in 1965's Fanatic with a young Donald Sutherland who was also in Kellys Heros and Space Cowboys. I've seen Fanatic and its good fun.....
This reminded me that Sutherland was interviewed on the radio here when Space Cowboys was released and he reminiced about sharing a room with Clint whilst filming Kelly's..... and they both watched the moon landings together....
The right answer plus trivia... too much. ;)
I'll be back with a new one soon.
-
OK......
Victor Jory
have at it..... :)
-
Victor Jory was the narrator for that treasure trove of Eastwoodites, Mackenna's Gold ... but I've already used that one in this game ...
No fewer than three once or future Clint co-stars joined Gregory Peck in Mackenna's Gold (1969) ... a project Eastwood himself had been sought for, but that he turned down in favor of Hang 'em High. They are: Telly Savalas (Kelly's Heroes), Lee J. Cobb (Coogan's Bluff) ... and old Tuco himself, Eli Wallach.
So how about taking an alternate tack? Jory was in Jigsaw (1968) with ...
- Harry Guardino (Dirty Harry, The Enforcer, Any Which Way You Can)
- Bradford Dillman (The Enforcer, Sudden Impact)
- Pat Hingle (Hang 'Em High, The Gauntlet, Sudden Impact)
- Roy Jenson (Paint Your Wagon, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose, Any Which Way You Can, Honkytonk Man)
-
New one: The Asian-American actor, James Hong.
There's actually at least one very easy one-stepper here, but I didn't see it at first ... so if anyone can find the obscure one I originally had in mind, via an actor who played a very small part in one Eastwood film ... extra points, and peanuts. ;)
-
Well Vic Jory didn't present too many problems.. ::)
I was going through Papillon with John Quade
Right.. time for Mr Hong..... :)
-
James Hong was in true confession with Robert Duvall (joe kidd)
-
Lets see who comes up with a two-stepper for the one and only ROWAN ATKINSON. The black dagger!!!
-
I don't know about a two-stepper, but there is a one-stepper.
Rowan Atkinson starred in Bean (naturally!), with Burt Reynolds (City Heat).
Dane, do you want someone to find a two stepper for Atkinson?
-
Not necessarily ;). A two-stepper was the nearest i could figure to him and clint. So you just go ahead and post a new name Christopher, and nice connection by the way. it went completely under radar for my part ;D
-
Okay, the next one:
Cameron Mitchell
-
Cameron Mitchell was in the "B" horror flick The Swarm (1978) with rare Ben Johnson (Hang 'em High) and common Bradford Dillman (The Enforcer, Sudden Impact). ;)
-
Speaking of bees ... how about Bea Lillie? I think there's only one of her handful of films that will yield a one-stepper, though maybe one of you geniuses out there will find another ... ;)
-
how about Bea Lillie[/b
Beatrice Lillie was in Around The World In 80 Days(`56) with Shirley Maclaine(Two Mules For Sister Sara).
She was also in Thoroughly Modern Millie(`67)with Carol Channing who was with Eastwood in The First Travelling Saleslady(`56).
-
Very good, Hemlock! I saw the Carol Channing connection but I wasn't counting it because we decided to stay away from those early films of Eastwood, even if in this case they did actually have a couple of nice little scenes together.
Shirley in Around the World in Eighty Days was the one I was thinking of.
Have you got another one for us?
-
Since it`s our independence day,how about great finnish actor/director Åke Lindman ???
-
Howsabout Don Siegals Telefon... Ake was in it with Tyne Daily who Harry fell for in The Enforcer... :)
-
Alfie Bass
-
Alfie was in I Was Monty's Double (1958) with the eternal Michael Hordern (Where Eagles Dare).
New one: Christopher Plummer.
-
Plummer was Sherlock Holmes in Murder by Decree with our old friend Donald Sutherland... who was in Kelly's Heroes and Space Cowboys.... :)
Hey.. it's a twosie.. Also in Murder by Decree was the lovely Genevieve Bujold... Do I get double peanuts for that.
-
Tom Courtenay
-
Tom Courtenay
He was in Doctor Zhivago(`65)with Klaus Kinski(FAFDM).
Next

By the Åke Lindman was also in Warren Beatty`s Reds with Gene Hackman.

Ellen was in The Exorcist with Lee J Cobb who was great in Coogans Bluff. :)
OK.. how about Brit likely lad....
James Bolam
-
Got ya at last huh........... :) ;)
-
James Bolam was in Otley (1968) with Freddie Jones (Firefox). He also was the voice of "The Tod" in the animated feature The Plague Dogs (1982), in which Nigel Hawthorne (also Firefox) was the voice of Dr. Robert Boycott.
Have we had the lovely Isabelle Huppert?
-
Well done. Not my route but just as good..
Isabelle was in The Bedroom Window 1987 with Carl Lumbly who played a con in Escape From Alcatraz.
That was a toughie, think I got a little lucky there..... ;)
Lets see how we get on with English stalwart and fairest cop in the land....
Jack Warner.
-
Very seasonal, Gant! Warner had the part of Mr. Jorkin in Scrooge (1951) ... in which your fave Michael Hordern (Where Eagles Dare) was Marley (and Marley's ghost). :D
-
New one: Olivia Hussey.
-
Olivia was in that well known turkey (very seasonal of you KC) Lost Horizon (1973) with George Kennedy who is in just about every film ever made.... including The Eiger Sanction and Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
Lets see if I can avoid Michael Horndon this time....
English pop singer/actor Tommy Steele.
-
Tommy Steele was in The Happiest Millionaire (1967) with Geraldine Page ... Miss Farnsworth herself in The Beguiled! :o
How about Curd Jürgens?
-
Curd/Curt is in The Memphisto Waltz 1971 with Bradford Dillman who went on to be a pain in the a** for Inspecter Callahan as McCay and Briggs in The Enforcer and Sudden Impact.
He was also in The Spy Who Loved me with Richard Kiel who took a rather nasty blow to the **** in Pale Rider... :D
...and 62's The Longest Day with Richard Burton who talked a lot in Where Eagles Dare with Clint and Michael Hordon.
OK... Next up............Molly Ringwald
-
That's easy, and the one I was going to post myself, if I ever got the chance. Molly starred in 16 Candles, which features a very young John Cusack, who was in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
I don't know if that means I get to post one now, but just in case, how about....
Rachel Griffiths?
-
Molly was also in Paul Mazursky's Tempest (1982) with Raul Julia (The Rookie) and Jerry Hardin (Honkytonk Man) ... just in case someone is tempted to say it's no fair using actors who have never been IN a film with Clint. ;)
Have you got a new one for us, robluvsnic? :)
EDIT: I see you posted one already ... Yes, you're entitled! ;D
-
Molly was also in Paul Mazursky's Tempest (1982) with Raul Julia (The Rookie) and Jerry Hardin (Honkytonk Man) ... just in case someone is tempted to say it's no fair using actors who have never been IN a film with Clint. ;)
Er, well, yes. I was wondering whether it was against the rules to use movies only directed by Clint, but when I say Molly's name I thought it must be okay -- since 'obviously' Gant was thinking along the same lines as I was :P
-
"Six Feet Under" fan?
Rachel Griffiths was in Children Of The Revolution with Judy "Absolute Power" Davis.
Hows about... wow, I didn't realize he was dead!
James Franciscus, R.I.P. :(
-
"Six Feet Under" fan?
Meh. The first series was great, but the show went downhill (and into a bottomless pit) after that.
Rachel Griffiths was in Children Of The Revolution with Judy "Absolute Power" Davis.
You are right, of course :) Aaaaah. Children Of The Revolution -- what a great movie.
-
James Franciscus dead.... wow.. I didn't know that either..
OK, to work
Oh and I was going from Riingwald thru' Alexa Kenin from Honkytonk Man..... :)
-
I got Franciscus in 1969's Marooned with Gene Hackman who popped up in Clints Unforgiven and Absolute Power.
Next up... English comic Benny Hill.
(popular in America for a while I believe...shame you only got the censored version ;))
-
Gant, I may need a hint on this ... You're looking for a one-stepper, as usual? ???
-
Yup.. A one stepper it is....
Hill wasn't in many movies... ya may wanna check out any all star casts.... ;)
-
Hmmm ... that suggests Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines (1965) ... Hill was in that with Alberto Sordi, and Sordi was in Le streghe ... however, he was in the segment "Senso Civico," directed by Mauro Bolognini, not the one Clint was in, "Una sera come le altre," directed by Vittorio De Sica. When Xichado asked whether Le streghe was "legal" for the purposes of this game, I said we'd make it a rule that you could use it only if the actor in question was in Clint's segment.
Was that the one you had in mind, Gant? ???
-
Uh uh........ ;D
Keep trying.. your gettin' closer :)
-
Gots it at last! :D
Ferdy Mayne, who was born into a German Jewish family in Mainz, Germany, played a "French official" in (to give it its full title) Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines, or How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 hours 11 minutes ... and he was "Gen. Rosemeyer" in Where Eagles Dare.
-
How about the late Jeanne Crain (d. Dec. 14, 2003) ... the "winsome" actress whose obituary I just read in The New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2003/12/16/movies/16CRAI.html)? :'(
(http://graphics7.nytimes.com/images/2003/12/16/arts/crain.jpg)
-
"The games afoot" Sherlock (Gant) Holmes... :)
-
Very, very tricky KC......... ;)
Luckily ole Gant was equal to the task.... ;) ;D
I got Jeanne in 55's Gentleman Marry Brunettes with our old Pal Ferdy Mayne of Where Eagles Dare fame...
Is this the one you had in mind.... I gotsta know... 8)
-
That's even better than the one I found, Gant ... I was going through Nefertiti, regina del Nilo (I'd love to see that some time) in the cast of which I found Raf Baldassarre, who played some tough hombre or other (uncredited) in A Fistful of Dollars.
So ... who's next? :D
-
Tim Pigott-Smith
-
Tim Pigott-Smith was in 1981's Victory with Clive Merrison, who appeared one year later in Firefox :)
Back with a new one shortly...
-
How about:
(http://www.petersellers.com/images/selp023.jpg)
Peter Sellers?
-
There's one I know without the help of the IMDb ... Sellers starred as the mysterious "Chance, the gardener," AKA "Chauncey Gardner," in Hal Ashby's 1979 adaptation of Jerzy Kosinski's satirical novel Being There. Co-starring as Eve Rand, who gets to put on quite a show in an attempt to please Chauncey, who only knows one thing about life in general ... "I like to watch" ... :o ... was Shirley MacLaine (Two Mules for Sister Sara).
-
How about the one-time child star Nova Pilbeam ... best remembered for her two appearances in Hitchcock films?
(http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B00004WIAD.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)
-
Nova Pilbeam was in film The Three Weird sisters(`48)with actors:
HUGH GRIFFITH who was in Exodus(`60) with Lee J Cobb(Googan`s Bluff)
DAVID DAVIES who wasi in The Heroes Of Telemark(`65) with Richard Harris(Unforgiven)
ELISABETH ALLAN who was in Donovan`s Reef(`63) with Lee Marvin(Paint Your Wagon)
There were more two-steppers in other Pilbeam`s films but I couldn`t find one stepper.Is there aa one stepper KC ???
-
Yes. ;)
Nova didn't make too many films, so you should be able to find it. The actor was in only one Eastwood film and it isn't a well-known name. Good luck!
-
Ok KC how about this
ROBERT BEATTY was with Pilbeam in film called Counterblast(`48) and he was also with Eastwood in Where Eagles Dare as Cartwright-Jones.

-
Who's next? :D
Peter O`Toole ???
-
Another one I know without looking it up! O'Toole was in Becket (1964) ... playing King Henry II to the "meddlesome priest" of Richard "Where Eagles Dare" Burton.

NEXT: Since I just finished another CSI book how's about William Peterson, not sure though if I and/or someone else used him already, but what the heck? :-\
-

That is indeed him. He has, at times, been credited as William Peterson.

A man of many identities he is. :D
-
Whoever he is, he played Gov. Jack Hathaway in The Contender (2000) ... also starring Jeff "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" Bridges as President Jackson Evans and Saul "Unforgiven" Rubinek as Jerry Tolliver.
-
How about Raymond Burr? Please, nothing with "Perry Mason" in the title! :o
-
Raymond Burr was in Airplane 2:The Sequel(`82)with Rip Torn(City Heat).
Burr was also in film Out Of The Blue(`81)with Dennis Hopper(Hang`Em High)who also directed the film.
Next PAM GRIER ???
-
Pam was in something called Original Gangstas in 1996. According to the IMDb, that film is also known as Hot City, which is appropriate, because starring with Pam was Richard Roundtree ... who played Burt Reynolds's partner Dehl Swift in City Heat.
-

Angie Dickinson was in Point Blank with Lee Marvin (Paint Your Wagon), Carroll O'Connor (Kelly's Heroes) and John Vernon (Dirty Harry, The Outlaw Josey Wales). The Lee Marvin connection I thought of right away from when I watched this movie, but I hadn't remembered there were a few others as well.

(http://www.reelclassics.com/Actresses/Tierney/images7/tierney_faceshot.jpg)
-
The barely prettier Gene was in 1963's Toys in the Attic with The Beguiled's Geraldine Page.....
Dick Miller
-
Dick Miller was in It Conquered the World (1956) with the future Col. Mortimer (For a Few Dollars More) and Angel Eyes (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly), Lee Van Cleef himself. I can't resist quoting the summary of this film from the IMDb (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0049370/plotsummary) ...
One of several remaining members of its race, an alien from Venus is guided to Earth by disgruntled scientist Tom Anderson [Van Cleef], who tells it which humans it should attach mind control devices to. Among them is his old friend, fellow scientist Paul Nelson. Nelson, after killing a flying bat-thing which carries the device, finally persuades the paranoid Anderson that he's been wrong to ally himself with an alien bent on world domination. They hurriedly leave when they discover Tom's wife has picked up a rifle and gone to the alien's cave to try to kill it.
-
How about Dominique Sanda?
-
Dominique was in the classic 1971 flick Damnation Ally with Robert Donner who had a small part in High Plains Drifter.
He's also in a 1967 film called El Magnifico Extranjero with Paul Brinigar and Clint Eastwood. Whats this all about. Know anything about this one KC? Have I stumbled across a great lost Eastwood movie.... :)
Next up... The gorgeous Yvonne De Carlo.
-
El magnifico extranjero (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0368852/) isn't a film, properly speaking, at all. It's a couple of episodes of Rawhide strung together, which was marketed in Europe in 1967 as if it were a new Clint Eastwood film, just when Eastwood's popularity as the star of the "Dollars" films was at its international peak. Eastwood had to take legal action against Jolly Film (producers of A Fistful of Dollars), who had licensed the episodes and were attempting to distribute the resulting product; see Schickel's Clint Eastwood, p. 175. I'm not sure whether the film was actually shown in theaters, but publicity materials for it certainly exist and can sometimes be found in places like eBay.
Gant, I'd have thought you'd pick The Mackintosh Man as your choice of film to link Sanda and Eastwood ... ;)
-
Thanks for clearing that up.....
Ah yes..The Mackintosh Man featuring our old fave Michael Hordern. A much better link. :)
OK..c'mon, what ya got for Mrs Munster.
-
Doesn't anyone want to play anymore?
Yvonne De Carlo was in Hostile Guns (1967) with John Russell, who was in three Eastwood films, most memorably as Stockburn in Pale Rider, and Roy Jensen, who was in SIX Eastwood films ... Paint Your Wagon, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose, Any Which Way You Can, and Honkytonk Man.
I have a feeling there's a more obvious link, but I didn't find it right away.
-
New one: Buster Keaton ... with whose deadpan acting style Eastwood's has sometimes been compared. ;)
-
Buster's last movie was called A Funny Thing Happened to me on the way to the Forum.
Also staring...........
MICHAEL HORDERN. ( Eagles Dare)
Who I'm starting to think has been in more films than George Kennedy and Christopher Lee combined. ;D

Next HARDY KRUEGER...
-
Ah, Hardy Krueger ... or Krüger, as some of us prefer to spell it ... best known for obscure Euro art films, the kind I used to view catch as catch can in small cramped repertory theaters ... espresso in the lobby ... but he also worked in Hollywood occasionally, and almost every one of his English-language films that I clicked on had a Clint connection or two ...
- Aldrich's The Flight of the Phoenix (1965) ... with George Kennedy (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction)
- Kubrick's Barry Lyndon (1975) ... with Marisa Berenson (White Hunter, Black Heart), and (as narrator), the eternal Michael Hordern (Where Eagles Dare)

Horst was in 83's Sahara with Ronald Lacey who was in Firefox.....
Ok.. legendary English dj..... Alan Freeman.

Gene and Madeline also shared screen time in Blazing Saddles!
-
New one: French screen diva Danielle Darrieux.
(http://perso.club-internet.fr/garzanda/artistes1940/photos/danielle_darrieux.jpg)
-
Danielle Darrieux was in film Les Oiseaux Vont Mourir Au Peru(Birds come To Die In Peru `68)with Jean Seberg(Paint Your Wagon).
How about another french actress JEAN MOREAU ???
By the way I completly forgot Madeline Kahn earlier.I was thinking Gene Wilder in films with Gene Hackman:Young Frankenstein and Bonnie And Clyde.
-
I forgot that Gene Hackman was in Young Frankenstein. And, I forgot Gene Wilder was in Bonnie and Clyde! :o
Jeanne Moreau (I assume that's who you meant, Hemlock) was in Monte Walsh (1970) with Lee "Paint Your Wagon" Marvin and Matt Clark, who had small roles in three Eastwood films ... The Beguiled, The Outlaw Josey Wales and Honkytonk Man. Richard Farnsworth, who had a bit part in The Outlaw Josey Wales, was also in that one. :D
-
How about Bill Cosby? No TV stuff, now!
-
Bill Cosby was in Leonard Part 6 with Moses Gunn from Heartbreak Ridge.
-
Next one:
Sonny Bono
-
Next one:
Sonny Bono
That bad downhillskier was in George Pan Cosmato`s Escape From Athena(`79) with Telly Savalas(Kelly`s Heroes).
...and yes KC it was Jeanne Moreau that I meant :-[
Next HUMPHREY BOGART ???
-
What a coincidence, Hemlock, I was just on Bogie's IMDb page!
I should let D'Amb do this one, but, oh well ... It'd be nice if I could find a link in the Bogart starring vehicle The Enforcer (1951) ... or in The African Queen ... but I don't see one. But what about The Caine Mutiny (1954)? Starring Bogie as Lt. Cmdr. Philip Francis Queeg, and featuring no fewer than three future Eastwood co-stars: Tom Tully (Coogan's Bluff), E.G. Marshall (Absolute Power), and Lee Marvin (Paint Your Wagon).
-
Next: Debbie Reynolds.
-
I got Debbie in Oliver Stones 1993 Heaven and earth with future Space Cowboy Tommy Lee Jones....
STEVEN BERKOFF
-
Steven Berkoff was in Hugh Hudson`s Revolution(`85)with Donald Sutherland(Kelly`s Heroes and Spacecowboys).
KC againI was thinking completly diffrent film than you earlier with Bogie-question ;DI) Bogart was with Lee J.Cobb in The Left Hand Of God(`55).
Now really easy JAMES STEWART ???
-
Jimmy Stewart is another one I know without looking it up ... he played the man who DIDN'T shoot Liberty Valence in John Ford's classic Western (The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence, for those of you who are a little slow on the draw ;) ), and the eponymous villain was played by Lee "Paint Your Wagon" Marvin. Lee Van Cleef also had a small role in that one. 8)
-
Here's another one that should be pretty easy ... the late great Cary Grant.
(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/0790749815.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)
-
Well KC I was again thinking completly diffrent film than what you find/remembered ;DI didn`t even remember THe Man Who Shot Liberty Valance :-[ :-[
In film Call Northside 777(`48)Stewart was with Lee J.Cobb(Coogan),E.G.Marshall(Absolute)and John McIntire(Honky Tonk).
Anyway Cary Grant was in Stanley Done`s Charade(`63)with George Kennedy(The Eiger Sanction,Thunderbolt and Lightfood).
There`s a very lame remake of Charade made by Jonathan Demme called The Truth About Charlie starring Mark Wahlberg,Tim Robbins and Lisa Gay Hamilton.
Next GEORGE HAMILTON ???
-
This is the West, Hemlock. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend. ;)
-
How about the one and only Harry Guardino who plays along side of Grant in Houseboat...Guardino plays Lt. Bressler in both Dirty Harry and The Enforcer as well as a part in Any Which Way You Can...
Will that do?
-
D'Amb, I think Hemlock already answered the Grant one with Charade ... yours is a good one, though.
Anybody got George Hamilton? ;)
-
Hamilton was in Godfather pt 3 along with Tuco "Wallach"
I nearly made Casper the ghost the link till I realised it was a tv movie.... ;D
Next..... the delectable Patsy Kensit
-
Patsy Kensit, as a babe in arms (figuratively speaking) of six years, played Daisy Buchanan's daughter Pamela in Francis Ford Coppola's 1974 version of The Great Gatsby. Daisy's husband Tom was played by Bruce Dern (Hang 'em High), and Roberts Blossom (Escape from Alcatraz) had the small part of Mr. Gatz.
-
Next ... speaking of moppets ... Shirley Temple.
-
Phew .. that wasn't easy...
I got Shirl in a 1944 flick called I'll be seeing you (shades of The Prisoner) with Tom Tully who was Sheriff McCrea in Coogans Bluff. Is that your link ?
Mandy Rice-Davies
-
That was the connection I had in mind, but I found Shirley and Tom together in a different film ... A Kiss for Corliss (1949). Good work.
Mandy Rice-Davies, eh? Wasn't she sort of the Monica Lewinsky of her day? Anyway, she was in something called The Seven Magnificent Gladiators (1983) ... now there's a title ... along with Dan Vadis, who was in five Eastwood films:
- High Plains Drifter
- The Gauntlet
- Every Which Way But Loose
- Bronco Billy
- Any Which Way You Can
-
Your good you...... ;D ;)
That is a much stronger link than my one.. Yeah Mandy was what we call.. a good time gal.... :D
Your up....
-
For the next one, how about another woman who was famous for her relationship with a powerful man ... Marion Davies?
This may be difficult. If there is a "traditional" one- stepper, I didn't find it. (There are plenty of two-steppers). What I found was a one-step connection via an actor who worked on a number of Eastwood films ... but not as an actor. ??? ;)
If anyone can do better ... be my guest! :)
-
Do we need a hint here?
Marion Davies was in a movie with an actor (who was very young at the time) who later on worked on several Eastwood movies ... as a screenwriter.
Does that help? ;)
-
Wow KC it could be that you killed this thread ;D ;D
However I`ll try to answer to this one:
Dean Riesner(screenwriter of Coogan`s Bluff,Dirty Harry and The Enforcer)was with Marion Davies in Charlie Chaplin`s The Pilgrim(`23).
If I got this right here`s a next one...Dan Aykroyd ???
-
Dan Aykroyd was in Conehaeds (1993) with Michael "True Crime" McKean.
NEXT: Clark Gable
-
Gable starred alongside Eli "Tuco" Wallach in 61's The Misfits.
New one comin' soon.....
-
Wow KC it could be that you killed this thread ;D ;D
However I`ll try to answer to this one:
Dean Riesner(screenwriter of Coogan`s Bluff,Dirty Harry and The Enforcer)was with Marion Davies in Charlie Chaplin`s The Pilgrim(`23).
If I got this right here`s a next one...Dan Aykroyd ???
Wow, Hemlock, I was beginning to think I had killed it too! :o
You are of course correct! Riesner also helped out on several other Eastwood screenplays, including The Outlaw Josey Wales. When he played a "little boy" in The Pilgrim starring Marion Davies, he was five years old and billed as "Dinky Riesner" (or "Reisner," if the IMDb is correct).
-
Here it is....
Red Skelton
-
Here it is....
Red Skelton
He was in Ocean`s Eleven(`60)with Shirley Maclaine(Two Mules For Sister Sara).
Next...BEN STILLER
-

- Gene Hackman (Unforgiven, Absolute Power)
- Anjelica Huston (Blood Work)
- Danny Glover (Escape from Alcatraz)
- Seymour Cassel (Coogan's Bluff)
- Greg Goossen (Unforgiven)
-

- Gene Hackman (Unforgiven, Absolute Power)
- Anjelica Huston (Blood Work)
- Danny Glover (Escape from Alcatraz)
- Seymour Cassel (Coogan's Bluff)
- Greg Goossen (Unforgiven)
Damn I forgot this one >:(Stiller was way too easy anyway.I was thinking the film Keeping The Faith where Stiller was with Eli Wallach but then there are films Empire Of The Sun with Malkovich and The Gable guy with Jim Carrey :-[
Anyway give us a next one vik.
-
liza kudrow
-
Lisa Kudrow was in Impulse (1990) with Jeff Fahey.
NEXT: Vincent D'Onofrio (one of the most under-rated actors out there today.)
-
Jeff "White Hunter Black Heart" Fahey, that is ... ;)
-
I got Vinnie in Strange Days with Juliette Lewis who I think made an uncredited apperance in Bronco Billy...?
If not he's in Ed Wood with Gregory Walcot who was in Every Which Way but Loose and The Eiger Sanction..
Failing that I got him in J.F.K with future Space Cowboy Tommy Lee and Perfect Worlds Kevin Costner.... :)
OK........... here we go
John Lennon ;D ;D ;D
-
Gregory Walcott (two ts ... ;) ) was also in Joe Kidd (Sheriff Bob Mitchell) and Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (Used Car Salesman).
I hadn't heard that Geoffrey Lewis's daughter was in Bronco Billy ... do you recall where you saw that, Gant? Wonder which scene she was in? She'd have been around six or seven years old. She's a year younger than Alison Eastwood.
-
I've been wracking my brains but I just can't remember where I heard this. For some reason I've always thought she was one of the kids hangin' round Billys car when he makes the "brains kinda fuzy" speach....
Someone out there put me out of my misery please.. Was she or wasn't she... ;D ??? ;D
-
Hmmm, Gant ... I'd say it's a distinct possibility ...
(http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/BBPards.JPG) (http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/BBPardsJL.JPG)
(http://village.infoweb.ne.jp/~mtok/movie/juliette-lewis21.jpg) (http://user.chollian.net/~movieland/html/actlinks/lewis.jpg)
-
Back to the game! John Lennon, who I hear had some success as a singer/songwriter besides being a movie star, was in How I Won the War (1967) with the eternal Michael Hordern (Where Eagles Dare).
Next one: Marthe Keller
EDIT: We turned the page ... Gant, check back on the last page and see if you think that little "pard" is Juliette Lewis. ;)
-
Top work KC... :)
I think it's her.. just wish I could remember where I heard it.. In an interview I think...
-
Marthe Keller was in Marathon Man with William Devane who was in Space Cowboys.... :)
Madeline Smith
-
Madeline Smith
Good one Gant.Another thread killer ;D
I could find only two steppers through All Movie Guide.
-
Heck, Hemlock, I found a one stepper in the first film I clicked on in the IMDb ... Theatre of Blood (1973), starring Vincent Price as "a Shakespearean actor [who] takes poetic revenge on the critics who denied him recognition." Among the others in the cast are Madeline, and ... yet again ... Where Eagles Dare's own Michael Hordern.
-
New one: Anouk Aimée.
-

Heck.heck and heck!You`re right KC as usually.Maybe I was too tired(I`m at the nightshift)when I went through of her films :-[ :-[
By the way I have seen this Theatre Of Blood.It was quite amusing sort of a horror film.
Anyway I´ll try to be sharper next time...Anouk Aimèe...hmmm ???
-
Anouk Aimèe was in Mika(Finnish director)Kaurismäki`s L.A.Without A Map with Robert Davi(City Heat).
Hopefully I saved my face with this one.
Next Monica Belluci ???
-
Next Monica Belluci ???
Beat yah to it Hemlock. I already used her (http://www.clinteastwood.org/forums/index.php?board=6;action=display;threadid=173;start=120). ;)
-
Good work gang......
I just can't seem to shake thesp Michael Horndon can I.... :D

-
Beat yah to it Hemlock. I already used her (http://www.clinteastwood.org/forums/index.php?board=6;action=display;threadid=173;start=120). ;)
Damn,damn,damn >:( :-[Hopefully it wasn`t me who answered that time ;D
Is it still my turn ???If so next Terence Hill...or did we use him already too ??? ;D
-
I got him in '77's March or Die with Unforgiven/Absolute Power's Gene Hackman.....
Another Godess........ Angie Dickinson
-
Another one I know without looking it up! Angie Dickinson was in 1964's The Killers with Paint Your Wagon's Lee Marvin. On checking in the IMDb, I find that Seymour Cassel (Coogan's Bluff) was also in the cast ... Don Siegel directed.
-
Superb... your up ;D
-
Oops ... I almost forgot! :o
Since it's the first Yankee "home" Spring Training game ... how about Derek Jeter? ;D
(http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/30504JeteInField.JPG)
There's a one-stepper ... ;)
-
I found him.....
Derek's only been in one movie, a favorite of mine... Anger Management (funny part, too!). But it took a while to track down who from that film worked with Clint. Turns out that an actor by the name of Jeff Morris played the desk sergeant in The Gauntlet. I guess that would be the fellow who tried to pull one over on Shockley by saying he didn't have a guy by the name of Gus Malley at the jail.
-
I'll be darned, Matt! So there were TWO guys in a movie with Derek who had also been in a movie with Clint!
Don't you know who the other one is?
(By the way, Jeff Morris was in another Eastwood movie, too! ;) )
-
Oh geez.... I have to go back to the cast list again.... okay, lemme look around some more.
-
I found the other one! Also in Anger Management was Nils Allen Stewart who played the not-so-tiny "Tiny" the bouncer in Space Cowboys. Actually, he had the same name in both roles... "Tiny".
And I see that Jeff Morris was also in Kelly's Heroes as "Cowboy". Once I saw he was in The Gauntlet, I stopped searching his IMDb page. :-\
I'll be back with the next one in a few minutes.
-
So there were THREE former Clint co-stars in that movie with Derek! Amazing! :o ;D
-
You've gotta be kidding me. I've gotta keep looking? :-[
And what do I get if I find four? I might need some incentive to keep working on this.
-
I know who the fourth is, but I'll let Matt search some more. ;) :D
-
Here goes KC....
Harry Dean Stanton was in Anger Management AND played Private Willard in Kelly's Heroes.
Whew.
Am I done now? :)
-
Derek and A-Rod thought that was so funny! Matt spending a half hour scrounging around in the cast list of Anger Management ... (http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/Lol.GIF)
(http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/30504DerekArodDugout.JPG)
-
They can laugh all they want.... so long as they both get some hits on Sunday when I see them play. Otherwise... someone else might be needing some anger management besides Roger Clemens. ;)
I looked through the remainder of the cast, and there wasn't a fourth. Too bad for me... I was actually starting to come up with some good ideas for rewards. :D
Okay, now I suppose I can finally go about finding a new one to post.
-
Next, another Adam Sandler co-star.....
Carl Weathers (unless he's already been done?)
-
Carl Weathers was in Semi-Tough (1977) with Burt Reynolds.
NEXT: Edge ???
-
That's Burt "City Heat" Reynolds to you, Brendan! ;)
-
And, it's fine.
But, man... I've tried over and over again to try to get this one connection and I"ve used about 5 actors from the same film over some of my last turns, and the connection I've been looking for just never comes up. :'(
-
Were you looking for Weathers and Thayer David (The Eiger Sanction) in Rocky, Matt?
Or maybe ... Weathers and Richard Kiel (Pale Rider) in Happy Gilmore? ???
-
I'd done Richard Kiel before.... but YES... FINALLY!!!! I was looking for Thayer David from Rocky. I saw him in that and didn't recognize him but I recognized his voice immediately. I've been really trying to get someone to find that connection. Thought I might have to actually offer up Butkus Stallone next time I was up if I'd have any luck. ;)
-
Meanwhile, since we've turned the page ... Brendan's new one was ...
Edge ???
-
Edge is uncredited in Ali with Mario Van Peebles from Heartbreak Ridge.
-
Next one:
Chuck Norris
-
Chuck was in The Octagon (1980) with Lee Van Cleef of For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

-

American rock n roll legend and piano pounder....
Jerry Lee Lewis.

-

-
Great answer, Gino M!
I note that Jo Ann Harris, who played the minx, Carol, in The Beguiled, was also in American Hot Wax.
By the way ... I'll bet the connection Gant was looking for was High School Confidential (1957) ... featuring Jerry Lee Lewis as "himself" and William Smith from Every Which Way but Loose! ;)
Have you got a new one for us? 8)
-
I think I finally found a trivia catagory that I can post often to. :)
Ok.. here's mine, it should be easy - Vivien Leigh
-
Well done Gino M.. Wow, that American Hot Wax sure turned out to be a little gold mine didnt it. I remember seeing it at the cinema, good little movie.
I was goin' thru' Larry Hankin who was in Escape From Alcatraz playing Charly Butts...

Mercedes McCambridge was in The Concorde, Airport '79 with George Kennedy of The Eiger Sanction and Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
-
Love your av! (http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/Lol.GIF)
-
Thanks, KC. :D Looks a lot like me, don't you think?
Okay.......how about Colin Firth?
-
Colin Firth, ahhhhhhhhh ... just saw him playing Vermeer in the excellent Girl With a Pearl Earring.
Firth wath in the abominable The Englith Patient, I mean The English Patient ... with Liisa Repo-Martell from Unforgiven.
BTW, the film had poor Liisa's credit wrong (and the IMDb has perpetuated the error). She played Silky, not Faith. :o
-
New one: Michael Landon.
-
Landon (along with well proportioned bombshell Mamie Van Doren ;D :-X :P) was in the wonderful High School Confidential with cultured hardman William Smith who broke Clints arm in Any Which Way You Can ;D
-
English pop sensation.... ;D
Billy Fury
-
For those of you who didn't tune in last night ... mgk temporarily changed her av to someone who looks just like her, namely Supergirl. They say dogs look like their owners, but I don't think Angel, though she is cute as a button, looks much like mgk ... :o ;)
-
Man, Gant, I bet you thought you had me with Billy Fury! But he was in Play It Cool (1962) with good ol' Peter Barkworth, who was in Where Eagles Dare.
-
New one: Herbert Charles Angelo Kuchacevich Schluderpacheru ... better known as Herbert Lom!
-
Herbert"Dreyfuss"Lom was in Blake Edward`s horrible fil son Of Pink Panther with Robert Davi(City Heat).
He was also in films like Pope Must Die with Beverly D`Angelo(Every Which Way But Loose).The River Of Death with L.Q.Jones(Hang`Em High) and The Dead Zone with Tom Skerrit(The Rookie).
Next Peter Stormare..or have we done this one before ???
-
Yup.. I must admit..I did think Me and Billy would hold you for a while ;)
Herbert was in the classic Hell Drivers along with Alcatraz's Patrick McGoohan...
-
Beat me to the punch Hemlock... ;D
-
Peter Stormare was in The Big Lebowski with Jeff "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" Bridges..
Right.. I'll leave you with English pop sensation....
Tommy Steele
-
Beat me to the punch Hemlock... ;D
Well it was welcomed change after last night ;D
Tommy Steele(whoever he is ???)was in The Happiest Millioinaire(`67)with Geraldine Page of The Beguiled.
Next Brendan Gleeson ???
-
Oops, I didn't get a chance to put in an answer on Peter Stormare ... aside from his many and varied movie roles, he was one of the finest Hamlets I've ever seen, in Ingmar Bergman's production for Stockholm's Royal Dramatic Theater, which I saw both in Stockholm and when it was on tour at the Brooklyn Academy of Music a few years back. Great actor.
-
Tommy Steele is a rock God Hemlock...... ;D
Brendan Gleeson was in Michael Collins (I never saw this one..always wanted to) with Dead Pools Liam Neeson whom I jus watched tonight in Love Actually... wish I hadn't.
-
Michael Collins (I never saw this one..always wanted to) with Dead Pools Liam Neeson whom I jus watched tonight in Love Actually... wish I hadn't.
Michaell Collins is alright film but certainly not the best Neil Jordan film.
What`s wrong with Love Actually ???I liked it a lot.Especially Bill Nighy is hilarious in that movie ;D
-
Some of it I liked and some I didn't.. I agree Nighy was great in it...
OK...... I'll leave you (again) with
Mildred Natwick
Good luck ;)
-
Mildred Natwick was in John Ford`s great She Wore A Yellow Ribbon(`49) with Ben Johnson(Hang`Em High).
Next Danny Kaye ???
-
Danny Kaye was in The Five Pennies (1959) with Harry Guardino (Dirty Harry, The Enforcer, and Any Which Way You Can).
Back shortly with a new one.
-
Don't think we've had Stephen Rea yet ...
-
Rea was in 1998's Still Crazy with White Hunter Black Hearts Timothy Spall..... :)
-
Next up...... the husky voiced
Glynis Johns
-
Glynis Johns was in The Ref with Denis Leary(True Crime),Judy Davis(Absolute Power) and Kevin Spacey(Midnight in the...).
Next Jack Black ???
-
Jack Black was in The Cable Guy with Jim Carey who was so good in The Dead pool..... ;D
-
Van Johnson
-
Van Johnson was in Purple Rose of Cairo with Jeff Daniels who was in Blood Work.
Has anyone posted Larry Hagman?
-
I could actually think of a connection with Hagman without looking it up, though I did just to be absolutely sure.
Larry has a small part in Superman along with Gene Hackman (Unforgiven, Absolute Power).
-
Next up: Anjanette Comer
-
Anjanette was in The Appaloosa along with John Saxon who appeared in Joe Kidd..... Boy he's had a good run aint he... ;) Doesn't look like John's ever been out of work.
OK...... English comedy ??? actor....
Jim Dale
-
With or without Michael Hordern, Gant? ;)
-
Without please........... ;D ;)
I'm gonna give up on English thesps..... Horndern's worked with eveybody... ::)
-
OK, if you don't want to count Joseph Andrews (1977), which featured Jim and Michael Hordern, how about The Iron Maiden (1962), which had Jim and Alan Hale Jr. (Hang 'Em High)?
Wonder what happened to Dale after the 70s, he has almost no film credits since then? ??? I don't usually count made for TV films, but I can't help noting that his two most recent efforts feature Eastwood co-stars, namely The American Clock (1993) with Felton Perry (Magnum Force) and Loren Dean (Space Cowboys), and The Hunchback (1997) (yes, based on Victor Hugo) with Richard Harris (Unforgiven) and a bunch of Hungarians.
Speaking of Hungarians ... how about Bela Lugosi?
-
Ahhh poor Bela..
Listen to them..my children of the night
KC.. are you gonna let me get away with Plan 9's from outer space's Gregory Walcott who was along for the ride in Every which way but loose and The Eiger Sanction..
Dunno what's happend to Dales career. probably languishing in the depths of panto land.
I had him in Pete's Dragon with the legendary Tank Murdock Walter Barnes.... One of the few/couple to best Clint in a fist fight...
-
"panto land"? ???
Sure, that's the link I was thinking of for Bela. In fact, we may have done him before ... it was very late, and I couldn't think of a harder one! :-\
Pete's Dragon is an animated film, and I don't usually look for links there ... though, there's no rule against 'em, certainly!
-
Panto.. kind of christmas theatre for kids that runs for about 3 months... lots of tv celebs and film actors end up there after the peak years of their careers.... I'm a big fan of the Carry On movies (do you ever get the in America ?) but I don't enjoy Dale's performances in them..
I didn't even realise Petes Dragon was animated, must be part live action I guess.... :)
Next.....
Bert Lahr
-
Ah, Panto = Pantomime. 8)
I guess I didn't realize Pete's Dragon was part live action!
I know Bert Lahr without looking it up, but I won't have time to find a new one till tonight. Anyway, Bert was in The Wizard of Oz with ... Billy Curtis of High Plains Drifter fame! ;) (The IMDb has him as "(uncredited) .... City Father" in TWOO.)
-
Oops, forgot to post a new one last night ... :o ... how about another Hungarian, Zsa Zsa Gabor?
-
Won Ton Ton the dog who saved Hollywood featured the lovely Zsa Zsa along with Bruce Dern from Hang em High and Madeline Kahn who was in City Heat..
Wow :o what a cast, wonder if the films any good. (Won Ton that is ;))
-
Next is the very lovely Simone Signoret.
I think I've thoroughly de-Hornden'd Simone.... but just in case I've missed one...... He don't count ;D
-
Signoret was in a movie called Games with Don Stroud who was in Joe Kidd with Eastwood.
Have we done John Candy???
-
I might point out that Canadian Bacon (1995), Candy's very last film, featured Rip Torn (City Heat) ... but that would be like taking Candy from a baby! ;) Even more so were I to mention J.F.K. (1991), which featured, at the very top of its cast list longer than the list of suspected conspirators in JFK's assassination, all of the following: Kevin Costner (A Perfect World), Kevin Bacon (directed by Clint in Mystic River) and Tommy Lee Jones (Space Cowboys).
So let me reach all the way back to 1987's Planes, Trains & Automobiles. Besides the aforementioned Bacon (who doesn't really count, even if he did inspire this entire thread, because he's never acted WITH Clint, only FOR him), the cast list included no fewer than two future players in True Crime: Laila Robins, who played Clint's character's adulterous squeeze "Patricia Findley," and Michael McKean, who played the odious prison chaplain, "Reverend Shillerman."
Will that do? :)
-
KC.. that was awesome!!! :D :D
-
Thanks, Gino! Guess we need a new one! How about another fat man ...
Sydney Greenstreet
-
Gotcha.. man that was a toughie......- ;D
Sidney Greenstreet was in a movie called Piilow to Post (1945) alongside a certain William Prince who was in Bronco Billy...
Right.. time to play hardball as you Americans like to say....
-
Angela Lansbury
have at it...... ;D
-
Very good, Gant! I knew you could do it! Prince, of course, was also memorable as the evil Commissioner Blakelock in The Gauntlet.
-
Thanks KC.. ya never gave up on me.... ;D
I'd completely forgotten about The Gauntlet.... :-[
Lansbury's gonna be a tough one.. I expect to be king of the Mountain for some time to come.... ;)
-
Angela soaked up "murder mystery" atmosphere for her future sleuthing career in Murder She Wrote on the set of Death on the Nile (1978) ... along with George Kennedy (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction).
I'll be back with a new one tonight. ;)
-
:-[ Possibly not quite as tough as I'd thought... ;D
-
How about another actor famous for playing a fictional sleuth ... Basil Rathbone?
-
I got the greatest Holmes of them all.. Basil Rathbone in Queen of Blood with the ever busy John Saxon from Joe Kidd.... One of my least favourite Clint movies.. I havn't watched it in years....
-
Quentin Crisp
Have fun....... :D
-
Child's play, Gant ... ;)
Quentin Crisp was in the gender bender Orlando (1992) with Toby Stephens, who played young Clint in Space Cowboys.
-
New one: Glenda Jackson.
-
Glenda was in Mary, Queen of Scots with Alcatraz's Pat McGoohan....... :)
Lets see how ya do with...
Tom Cappadona
;D ;D ;D
-
There's actually another one..... Glenda Jackson was in The Rainbow with Kenneth Colley and he was in Firefox.
-
Good one, Gino! Gant's link via McGoohan was the one I actually had in mind, but if you had been "firstest," yours is just as good!
Not sure who Tom Cappadona is, but he was in Amos Kollek's Sue (1997) with Anna Levine ... billed here as Anna Thomson, as she was when she played Delilah in Unforgiven. Under the name Anna Levine, she also played Charlie Parker's West Coast inamorata Audrey in Bird.
-
New one: My "King Lear" of the evening, Christopher Plummer.
-
cool actor plummer - battle of britain
sound of music
ok ed harris - a beautiful mind
absolute power
next:: kelvin brown
-
next:: kelvin brown
He was in film Two Can Play The Game with Wesley Thompson who was with Eastwood in Casper.
Next Groucho Marx ???
-
Eastwood wasn't exactly "in" Caspar, and it seems to me that one shouldn't really "count" ... but who knows who Kelvin Brown is, anyway! ??? ;)
As for Groucho, one of his last screen roles was as "God" in Skidoo (1968) ... along with Richard Kiel (Pale Rider).
-
Eastwood wasn't exactly "in" Caspar, and it seems to me that one shouldn't really "count" ... but who knows who Kelvin Brown is, anyway! ??? ;)
I was wondering that too but it was only connection that I could find ::)
-
I didn't find another one either, so maybe that's the one Vik was looking for.
-
New one: Gloria Swanson. Did you know she was only 4' 11½"?
-
kelvin brown was in park day with
sydney tamaii poitier who was in true crime
gee- i got you all
-
Good one, Vik!
-
Only just a bit shorter than that other movie goddess Barbara Windsor... ;D
Ok... I'll just mop this one up..... the obvious connection is Glorias apperance in Airport 1975 alongside George Kennedy (Eiger Sanction/Thunderbolt and Lightfoot)
Is that the one your after...?
I reckon it's vik's turn to post a new one....
-
.. while we're waiting I'll stick another in....
Comedy giant, and Carry On regular.....
Bernard Bresslaw
Hopefully there are no Michael Horndorn/John Saxon connections....
-
I'm hoping that I'm right on this one.. I haven't had time to fully check it but I think that Bernard Bresslaw & Alun Armstong was in Krull (NOT THE KEVIN SORBO version) Armstrong was in White Hunter Black Heart with Clint .
-
Well done Gino M.
A different route to mine but just as good. I just noticed that Liam Neeson was in Krull as well...
Over to you...... :)
-
Krull was a good sci-fi movie. Ok, how about Dean Martin. Have we done that one???
-
I believe we have but if I´m wrong here`s a few Dean Martin films:
Cannoball Run with Burt Reynolds(City Heat)
Cannonball Run II with Burt Reynolds and Shirley Maclaine(Two Mules For Sister Sara)
Some Came Running.All In The Night`s Work,Ocean`s Eleven also with Shirley Maclaine
Airport with George Kennedy(Thunderbolt And Lightfoot,Eiger Sanction)
Bandolero also with George Kennedy
The Sons Of Katie Elder with Dennis Hopper(Hang`Em High)and George Kennedy
Young Lions with Lee Van Cleef(GBU,FAFDM)
Next Joe Pantoliano ???
-
How about U.S Marshals with Space Cowboys Tommy Lee Jones.
Next.. back on the pop star route
Ian Dury
-
I knew that Joe Pantoliano was too easy :-[
Ian Dury was in Judge Dredd(awful version of the great cartoon)with Mitchell Ryan(Magnum Force).
Next Jane Russell ???
-
Jane was in Darker Than Amber (1970) along with Any Which Way You Can's William Smith..... :)
For all you Monty Python fans.....
John Cleese
-
that would be silverado with kevin costner\\who is also in a perfect world
always thought cleese was a strange pick for a western
-
New one, vik?
-
While we're waiting for vik to come up with one may I throw ya...... famous voice of Sponge Bob..
Ernest Borgnine
Just to keep us goin'......
-
Without looking farther than Clint costar George Kennedy (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction), I came up with this list of films that both Borgnine and Kennedy appeared in ...
- McHale's Navy (1964)
- The Flight of the Phoenix (1965)
- The Dirty Dozen (1967)
- The Legend of Lylah Clare (1968)
- The Double McGuffin (1979)
- Small Soldiers (1998)
-
ok...ya just scraped it..
What ya got for me....... ;D
-
Frank Langella.
-
Frank was in Dave 1993 alongside Absolute Power's Laura Linney.... :)
-
John Cassavetes.....
-
dirty dozen - lee marvin - paint your wagon
new : bubba smith
-
I got Bubba in the Burt (City :'(Heat) Reynolds flick Stroker Ace..... :)
New One
Have a go at Arthur (old mother Riley) Lucan.... ;D
-
Round here we kinda play king of the mountain... and Gant is gonna be king of "Seperation" Mountain for some time to come I reckon....... ;D
-
Never heard of Arthur Lucan, but as Gant intimates, he evidently starred as "Old Mother Riley" in a long series of gender benders. Indeed, if the IMDb is correct, he never played another role on the big screen.
In the last of these, Mother Riley Meets the Vampire (1952), one of the featured actors was David Hurst ... of Kelly's Heroes fame. ;)
The IMDb tells us that this film was also known under a few other titles, to wit:
- Dracula's Desire
- Mother Riley Runs Riot
- My Son, the Vampire
- Old Mother Riley Meets the Vampire
- Vampire Over London
- The Robot and the Vampire
- The Vampire and the Robot
... the last two being proposed titles. Our old friend Bela Lugosi also makes an appearance in this one.
-
:o ;D
I don't believe it.. you found another link to mine... ;D
I guess you get to sit on my step..... ;)
Over to you.
-
Vincent Gardenia.
-
Vincent was in Wheres Poppa ? 1970 with Ruth Gordon from Every Which Way and Any Which Way.....
-
Hammer films stalwart......
Michael Ripper
I've got a sneaking suspicion I may have gone for Ripper before. No matter, we'll stick with him.
-
Well it looks like I don`t have anything better to do at the moment so I`ll keep playing ;D
Michael Ripper was in No Surrender(`86)with Bernard Hill of True Crime.
;)
But, I found another one ...
Ripper (is that a nom d'écran?) was in the 1956 version of 1984 (directed by Michael Anderson) ... and playing (voice only; uncredited) Big Brother was none other than the resonant basso John Vernon (Dirty Harry, The Outlaw Josey Wales).
-
For a new one ... soon-to-be (but not yet) Clint co-star Hilary Swank.
-
Hilary was in 1992's Buffy the vampire slayer along with future Kelly's hero and space cowboy Donald Sutherland..
-
Next up.... the infamous Mr Dorian Gray himself....
Hurd Hatfield
.. and I'll get back to you on Rippers non de' ecran when Ive worked out what it means.... ??? ;D
-
Is Gant finally gonna be rightfully crowned king of "Seperation" Mountain... ;)
Watch this space...... ;D
-
There's a Michael Hordern connection, of course ... via El Cid! Did you want a "better" one? ;)
-
Hey, Gant, if you didn't like the Michael Hordern connection ... how about Roger Corman's The Red Baron (1971)? That featured both Hatfield and Don Stroud (Coogan's Bluff, Joe Kidd).
-
Michael >:( :o ??? >:( Horndorn
Jeees, I can't get rid of the guy......
Stroud was my route KC. Well done and over to you. :)
-
After I posted that, I found another one ... Hatfield was in The Boston Strangler (1968) with George (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction) Kennedy.
New one: Errol Flynn. And to make it more interesting ... no Michael Hordern connections allowed! ;)
-
Hordern free zone..... ;)
I got Errol in a movie called Rocky Mountain along with Rawhides Sheb Wooley who was also along for the ride in Outlaw Josey Wales... :)
-
Have a go at English actor Tom Bell.... :)
..and just in case..No Horderns allowed.... ;D
-
Does this ring a bell, Gant? Ol' Tom was in something called The Violent Enemy (1968) with Ed Begley (Hang 'em High). (Of course, there IS also a Michael Hordern connection, via Royal Flash, 1975. ;) )
-
;D different to mine but just as good....
and back to you...
I guess I'm just gona have to face up to the fact that Hordern has worked with every English actor going...
Bell's a great actor by the way :)
-
So ... how about Helen Mirren?
-
I think i got a little lucky here...
Helen was in O Lucky Man with Warren (Firefox) Clarke.. :)
I've got a feeling there maybe more ?
-
That's excellent, Gant, though it was a better known actor from Firefox whom I had in mind ... he had the lead role, and Helen played his lady. Do you know what film I'm thinking of?
Even if you don't ... you got it, give us a new one!
-
;D of course, how could I miss that...King George himself..Nigel Hawthorne...
New one....
Shirley Stoler
Without the Sutherland/Klute connection please ;)
-
She was in The Deer Hunter as Steven's mother. The film was directed by Michael Cimino who had earlier directed Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. ;D
-
Have you got a new one for us, bigdai?
-
..with Meryl Streep as the connection yeah.... :)
-
Meryl Streep, from The Bridges of Madison County! ;)
-
This is probably far too easy but what about Richard Dreyfuss. ::)
-
I got Dreyfus in Postcards from the edge along with Shirley Maclaine who was in Three mules etc and Gene Hackman who was in Unforgiven and Absolute Power along with Meryl Streep from Bridges...
Hey.. at least there was no Hordern...
,...... was there ? ;)
-
New one
Roman Polanski
-
I was thinking of Dreyfuss in Jaws, Music by John Williams who also did music for Eiger Sanction but yeah there are loads.
For Polanski what about Chinatown featuring John Huston who directed THE Unforgiven. Do names of films count or does it have to be people? (I know it's not exact but it'snot far off).
-
If that's ok what about another Brit
Michael Gambon
-
bigdai -
If I understand you correctly, you're making a connection from Roman Polanski through John Huston, the director of The Unforgiven. If that is indeed what you are doing, The Unforgiven is not a connection to Eastwood.
Eastwood directed Unforgiven which is a different movie than The Unforgiven which was directed by John Huston.
If I didn't understand you correctly, please let me know.
Thanks.
-
MGK I think we are on different wave lengths.
I obviously realise that they are completely and utterly different films (being a 40 year time difference and having different directors to name but two differences) hence the stress in my post on THE in John Huston's THE Unforgiven. I was making the link that Huston's film was very similar in title, though as I said not exactly the same as Clint's Unforgiven, without a THE.
If the association does not qualify then that is cool, it was a bit of a guess. However I am wise enough and long enough in the tooth to know that they are different films.
-
No problem, bigdai - I think we're on the same page now. Didn't mean to iimply that you don't know your films. :-X
Anyway, let's both go see if we can find a more direct link. :D
-
Hi bigdai..may I interject :)
The link has to be via actors/actresses who have worked with both Eastwood and the person named in the last post..
not composers or directers of similar sounding movies.
ie.... Shirley Stoller was in The Deer Hunter along with Meryl who starred with Clint in Bridges...
So you are looking for an actor who has appeared alongside Roman Polanski and Clint....
I think that makes sense......... ;D hope so :)
-
No worries Gant. :) I wasn't sure of the rules. I'll think on it, but doubt i'll get it. I'm not a big Polanski fan.
Hang on.... Jack Nicolson in Chinatown was also in Cuckoo's Nest which had Scatman Crothers from Bronco Billy. Also in Cuckoo's Nest was the big Indian guy who was in Josey Wales (I can't remember his name unfortunately).
Either of those any good?
-
Just realised I got it wrong again. Polanski directed Chinatown but didn't appear in it as far as I know. Back to the drawing board and beer ???
-
bigdai -
You've been on track all day with Chinatown. Roman Polanski does direct Chnatown but also has a small part as the "man with the knife" and another actor in the film was in an Eastwood film. Perry Lopez (Hmmm...??) was in Chinatown as Lt. Lou Escobar and was in Kelly's Heroes with Eastwood and played the part of Pvt. Petuko.
Let's go with the one you posted up above.......
Michael Gambon
and it's your call, bigdai. :D
Assuming, of course, that Gant says "we got it."
-
Different to mine but just as good..... ;D
Gambon it is....
-
Michael was in The Beast Must Die along with eternal German Anton Differing who was with Clint in Where Eagles dare :)
Next...... Jack MacGowran
Good luck....... :)
-
Not the same as the double act I was thinking of but even better. ;D
-
Back on John Huston ... You might also say that John Huston was the model for the character Clint played in White Hunter, Black Heart ... and that he was the father of Anjelica Huston (Blood Work) ... ;)
... but, as Gant pointed out, in this game, we do usually try to make the connection via an actor. I made an exception a few pages back when I used a person who had been both an actor (without Clint) and a writer (with Clint), but I mentioned beforehand that I was "breaking the rule."
-
Put the coffee on KC, your gonna be some time working on Mr MacGowran ;D
-
Jack MacGowran played "Petya" in Doctor Zhivago (1965) ... in which Klaus Kinski of For a Few Dollars More fame appeared as "Kostoyed Amourski." ;)
-
Hold the coffee........ ;D
OK..what ya got for me... :)
-
Have we done Bing Crosby?
-
I got an uncredited Bing alongside an uncredited Scatman (Bronco Billy) Crowthers in a resistable little Bob Hope flick called alias jesse james... :)
Will that do....?
-
Hold on.... ;D I can do better than that...
Howabout Bing and Inger (hang em high) Stevens in something called Man on Fire... :)
-
Former English world middleweight champ... and sometimes actor
Terry Downes
-
Child's play, Gant!
Terry was in one of your faves, The Fearless Vampire Killers (1967) as "Koukol, the servant." Also making an appearance in that one, as "Count Von Krolock," was Ferdy Mayne, who played "Gen. Rosemeyer" in Where Eagles Dare.
Would you like your hat with ketchup or Worcestershire sauce? ;)
-
How about Teresa Stratas, the opera singer? Shouldn't be too hard ... she didn't make very many movies. Don't bother with the "made for TV" ones, I'm not counting them. ;)
-
I would say something..... but it's rude to talk with one's mouth full..... :'(
-
ok...we got a Jose Riesgo who was in Fistful of Dollars and was also in Giuditta- Freunde das leben ist lebenswert along with Teresa...... :D
Next..all round entertainer Dana Carvey
-
I was looking for a better-known actor, or let's say ... one with a bigger role ... in Fistful, but I guess that's OK. :-\
-
Carvey was in Wayne's World (1992) with Lara Flynn Boyle of The Rookie infamy ... ;)
-
Spot on.. your up... :)
-
How about character actor Roscoe Karns?
-
Roscoe was in a Rock Hudson movie called Man's favorite Sport along with James Westerfield who was a prisoner in Hang Em High....
-
Lets go abroad for...
Jean-Luc Godard
-
Very good, Gant! I thought that one might take longer.
What puzzler have you got for us next?
-
To be honest KC that one did take me a while...still, what are Sundays for :)
The page has turned so I'll give it again..
Jean-Luc Godard
-
Godard, eh? And I suppose you want him as an actor ... and you probably want an on-screen role, not just a "voice"? ???
-
Oh, wait, this one is real easy. It's one of Godard's best-known films ... À bout de souffle (Breathless, 1960). Godard had a small onscreen role, but the female lead was taken by Jean Seberg (Paint Your Wagon).
(http://www.laemmle.com/series/french03/breathless.jpg)
Man, I was flailing around in the IMDb there for a while like a Yankee facing Pedro. :o
-
OK, for a new one, how about Sting? I understand he's made some sort of a name for himself as a singer/songwriter, but he's also acted in a few movies. ;)
-
Ah, finally one I can do! Sting acted in Dune, with Everett McGill, who appeared in Heartbreak Ridge! :)
-
Ok...this one isn't too hard, but there are more ways than one to make this connection.
Elizabeth Taylor
As I'm new to this, it will take me a while to find a really hard one...
-
Elizabeth Taylor starred in Giant with Dennis Hopper from Hang 'em High.
-
Next up: Christopher Mitchum
-
Mitchum was in a flick called The Last Hard Men along with John Quade who was in High Plains Drifter, Josey Wales and the Every/Any which way movies....
English singer/actress Toyah Wilcox
-
Ok Gant, that wasn't the connection I was thinking of, but it will do! ;)
-
Ok this is a long-winded connection, so I suppose it isn't right, but...
Toyah Wilcox starred in Quadrophenia, with Sting. Sting starred in Dune, with Everett McGill, who starred in Heartbreak Ridge.
Alternatively...I can't think of one!
-
There's a better way, Ally ... further down in the Quadrophenia cast list, we also find the celebrated Timothy Spall (the comical bush pilot in White Hunter, Black Heart).
-
Assuming mine trumps Ally's ... and going back to the "great directors" theme that Gant initiated with Godard (or resumed, after Polanski a few pages back) ... how about Orson Welles? As an actor; must be an onscreen role; and made for TV things don't count. ;)
-
Nice try ally.... but Spall was my connection, I've used him loads of times. Great actor.
Right. ;D ;D Finally I get to say it.
Orson was in a movie called I'll Never Forget What's'isname...... along with MICHAEL HORDERN who was simply fantastic in Where Eagles Dare ;)
-
.. and staying with the directors theme....
Kenneth Branagh
ps.. great pic of Seberg KC... :)
-
Well, that's OK, but you really didn't need to stoop to Hordern, Gant! ;)
-
Nor will I stoop to Timothy Spall (fond as I am of him) in Love's Labour's Lost (2000) for Branagh. Instead, how about the supernatural thriller Dead Again (1991), in which Branagh plays a reincarnated private eye and Christine Ebersole (True Crime) plays "Lydia Larsen"?
Next: Rainer Werner Fassbinder.
-
That was my first Hordern KC..... and it was da*n good..... ;D
(Gotta be careful here... I can feel a Tightrope quote comin' along.... ;D ;))
ok..on with the game.... Fassbinder was in the English comedy "Carry on again" with Tim Spall, John Saxon and Dave (Mikes brother) Hordern..... ;D ;D
sorry.... back with the answer soonish....... hopefully ;)
-
What's a Hordern, Daddy? :o ;D
-
:o ;D ;D
To be honest..I'm struggling a little with this one KC. Any chance of a clue... :)
-
OK, Gant ... the actor I'm looking for is German. He appeared in several Fassbinder films, including at least two in which Fassbinder also appeared as an actor. One of them is among Fassbinder's best-known films outside of Germany.
If that's not enough help ... I'll give another clue tomorrow. ;)
-
Yipeeeeee ;D
Klaus Lowitsch, General Vladimirov from Firefox was also in Fassbinders Die Ehe der Maria Braun along with the great man himself...
-
Next.... English comic actor of "On the buses" fame...
Stephen Lewis
-
I knew you could do it, Gant! ;D
-
;)
-
Stephen Lewis was in Stanley Donen's Staircase (1969) with Richard Burton ... star of Where Eagles Dare.
I tried very hard to find a link among the cast members of The Magnificent Seven Deadly Sins, just for the sake of getting the title in here ... but I couldn't. ;)
For a new one ... how's about John Wayne's youngest son, Ethan Wayne? (Imagine naming your own child after the protagonist of The Searchers! :o )
-
;D Got it...
Ethan was in a film called Cane arrabbiato along with good ole Bo Svenson who so nearly got his a** kicked as Roy Jennings in Heartbreak Ridge.
Next.. one time New Romantic pop star...
Martin Kemp
-
As usual i'm not sure of how many links you can have in this game but...
Martin Kemp was in The Krays as was Stephen Lewis (I think but will check) so....
Stephen Lewis was in Stanley Donen's Staircase (1969) with Richard Burton ... star of Where Eagles Dare.
-
Yep he was ;D
-
Correct bigdai but there is a one step link from Kemp to Eastwood......
Have another look at The Krays.... ;)
-
What about an actor with one of the greatest voices ever...
Edmund Gwenn
-
Sorry Gant I posted that before reading yours. i'll have a think on the one step link, ignore my Edmund Gwenn post. ;)
-
Ok Charlotte Cornwell who was in White Hunter, Black Heart. I was struggling because it is the only Eastwood film I haven't seen as I refuse to watch it until it becomes available on region 2 which at this rate might be years away. >:(
-
So...
Edmund Gwenn
And I expect you to get this quick because you've had all day to think of it ;D.
-
Spot on bigdai ;D
I got Edmund (the real Santa) Gwenn in The Trouble With Harry along with Two Mules co star Shirley MacLaine...
-
Next..... the very lovely.
Joanna Lumley
-
Got it! Joanna Lumley was in Shirley Valentine with Bernard Hill, who starred as warden Luther Plunkitt in True Crime :)
-
Ok...not too hard really, but another British slant on things... Nanette Newman.
-
I can't think of any Clint film where he uses a bottle of Fairy Liquid :-\. Or is there a scene where he washes dishes in The Bridges of Madison County :P.
;D
-
Naw sweetie, there's a film in which Nanette Newman stars, with someone else who's been in a Clint film. Think hard, now! You made me laugh, though ;D
-
I got one... Nan was in International Velvet with Peter Barkworth who was in Where Eagles Dare...
howsat........ ;D
-
Would you believe it, I was actually thinking of another connection...can you get it? ;)
-
I will look for another one.. but as I managed a link I'll post a new one. A toughie for a Monday Morning...
English comic and the man who asked Clint (at last years Guardian lecture) if he'd done any research on Frank Morris for his part in Alcatraz..
Jimmy Tarbuck
-
your looking at nigel hawthorne in firefox and in jessie with nanette newman - so you can carry on gant
-
alun armstrong - brazen hussies with tarbuck
and in white hunter black heart as ralph lockhart
next one: bette middler
-
I haven't looked for your one yet Vik, but I was gonna say, I didn't realise there were so many links for Nanette Newman! I was actually thinking of this connection - Nanette was in Stepford Wives with William Prince who starred in Bronco Billy ;)
Anyway, I digress, so, back to Bette Midler.
-
oops sorry allycat - you were looking at something else again - your right nanette's in a fair few links
-
Midler was in Get Shorty with Gene (Unforgiven/Absolute Power) Hackman...
Good Tarby link vik.. different to mine but just as good... ;D
-
Next......
Dan Duryea
-
Dammit Gant, you beat me to it!
Was gonna say...Bette Midler was in The First Wives Club with Eileen Heckart, who of course, starred as Little Mary with Ciint in Heartbreak Ridge. But you got it first, so, go ahead, the floor's yours! ;)
-
Got it...Dan Duryea starred in The Bamboo Saucer with William Mims who appeared with Clint in Paint Your Wagon.
-
Well that was quick..well done ;D
Over to you.
-
Ok...Kelly Preston.
-
I got Kelly in For Love of the Game with Kev (Perfect World) Costner... :)
Another oldie..... Hume Cronyn
-
I knew you'd find another link! The one I was thinking of, was of course, more complicated, as usual! ::)
Take it away, toots!
-
Hume was in in Hamlet (1964) starring one Richard (Eagles Dare) Burton ;D.
-
What about:
Dame Diana Rigg
-
The gorgeous Miss Rigg was in Theatre of Blood which coincidentally I watched last night..along with Michael Hordern who was in Where Eagles Dare...
KC......... :-X
-
Next..
Matthew 'Stymie' Beard
-
Another William Prince connection perhaps? Stymie was in Dead Reckoning as a bellboy...so was William Prince, who was in Bronco Billy with Clint...but then I told you that before...so, will that do? ;) Or do you want a film where he is actually credited as 'Stymie'?
-
That'll do just fine...... ;)
-
Ok...then try Elvis Presley. I hope this one's hard, but I bet you find an easier link!
-
I hope you don't mind if I jump in , Ally ...
Presley was quite tolerable as the conflicted half-breed "Pacer Burton" in Don Siegel's Flaming Star (1960) ... which featured John McIntire (Honkytonk Man) and L.Q. Jones (Hang 'em High).
-
Ooh, that's a good one, KC! You get bonus points for getting two actors who've starred in two different Clint films. Much better than the original link I was thinking of...which I seem to have forgotten at this precise moment ::)
The floor's all yours!
-
New one: Philip Van Zandt.
-
Whew...I finally got it.
Van Zandt starred in I Cover the Underworld (1955) with Lee Van Cleef, who starred in For a Few Dollars More and GBU...
-
Ok, on my 400th post I'm calling it a night...but I'll leave you with this. Once again I'm thinking of a specific connection, but you guys never fail to surprise me in finding other links in the chain!
Rita Hayworth
-
i'm new to this game but
Rita Hayworth's poster is in Shawshank Redemption with Morgan Freeman who is in Unforgiven
-
You're very welcome to join in the game, tmw3nyc, but we DO usually try to find a link that employs an actual, flesh and blood actor! ;)
I've got one for Rita that includes two Eastwood co-stars, but I'll hold off posting it and give someone else a chance. :)
-
You're very welcome to join in the game, tmw3nyc, but we DO usually try to find a link that employs an actual, flesh and blood actor! ;)
He improvised. He adapted. He overcame. ;D
Very original answer, if not exactly by the rules of the game.
-
He improvised. He adapted. He overcame. ;D
Very original answer, if not exactly by the rules of the game.
Let's split the difference! I'll post my solution ... Rita was in Poppies Are Also Flowers (1966) with Eli "Tuco" Wallach and E.G. Marshall of Absolute Power fame ...
And tmw3nyc, you can post the next one! :D
-
i'm new to this game but
Rita Hayworth's poster is in Shawshank Redemption with Morgan Freeman who is in Unforgiven
Actually, on an off-topic note, (just for a change!) the main poster in the film is of Raquel Welch...although I think there probably is a poster of Rita initially. It was Rita Hayworth in the original Stephen King novel, 'Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption' ;) But yeah, 10/10 for improvisation! Do you have one for us, tmw3nyc?
-
If tmw3nyc doesn't do the honours, can you fill in instead, KC? I'm itchin' to get going again! ;)
-
ok... i don't know if this has been done before, or exactly what the link is, but the most unEastwood person i can think of is....
Minnie Driver
-
Well, as long as there's a link...which I'm sure there must be, even if it's a long one! I think it's often a good idea to work out the link first yourself, just in case no one can get it and needs a clue...
I'll get working on yours now - thanks for posting!
-
Fortunately, it wasn't a long link! Minnie starred in Hard Rain, with Morgan Freeman, who was in Unforgiven with Clint.
Next up...try Emilio Estevez
-
ooooh this site is addictive !!!!
Emilio Estevez starred in Men at Work with his brother charlie Sheen from the Rookie !!!
I'll have another in a minute
-
was it something i said ? or was the site down for awhile....
Anyways here is a good one, its pretty short
Bruce Lee
-
Yeah, it was down! Glad things seem to be working ok now though :D
Bruce starred in Enter the Dragon with John Saxon, who appeared in Joe Kidd with Clint.
-
Ok...a brief star who lived fast and died young... Mark Frechette
-
Got it.... Frechette was in Uomini contro along with Dollars co star Gian Maria Volonte...
Next......... Thorley Walters
-
Thorley Walters was in Gene Wilder's The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother (1975) with Madeline Kahn from that gem of comedy, City Heat!
If you want to post another one, Gant, go ahead ... I've got baseball fever. :o ;)
-
Ok... staying with the theme, this one's a two stepper. Unless anyone can do better... ;)
Ty Cobb
-
I think I can - if this counts as one step!
Ty Cobb appeared in Angels in the Outfield with John Eldredge, who was in First Traveling Saleslady with Clint! ;D
You have to wait a bit for another one...I've just come off my lunch break :-\
-
Wow... most impresive allycat .. :o ;)
Normaly films featuring a pre stardom Clint arn't allowed. but still, excellent work... ;D
As Matt likes to say...
You improvised, you adapted, you overcame... ;D
Any ideas on the two stepper.... I'll give you a clue.. it's thru' a horror film that was on UK tv a couple of nights back... ;)
I think Cobb was quite a famous rounders player on their side of the pond... ;D
-

Oh, we aren't allowed pre-stardom Clint films? Who said that? No one told me! :-[ Why aren't we allowed..? It's not like it was an uncredited performance or anything...anyway, surely Clint was a star from the moment he went into acting! ;D ;)
I haven't watched tv much recently so I don't think I'll get the reference...I'll work on it though, how's that?!
Rounders...hehe! You mean baseball...as I told Matt the other day, rounders is the closest we get to baseball, although it's really a kids' game, isn't it?
Can I post another? If so, try this:
George Cheung
I wanted to make this one harder, so the connection I'm thinking of is two steps, but you'll probably get it with one!
-
Oh, and I can also get to Ty Cobb this way, though I think my original way was more enterprising!
Janet Leigh starred with Ty in Angels in the Outfield. She also starred in Psycho with John McIntire, who starred in Honkytonk Man with Clint. Will that do?! Oh, and was that the horror film you were thinking of? It's one of my faves...
-
Can I post another? If so, try this:
George Cheung
I wanted to make this one harder, so the connection I'm thinking of is two steps, but you'll probably get it with one!
George Cheung was in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) with Jack Kehler and he had the role of Mr. Zieglerin in True Crime (1999)
-
Xichado, always nice to hear from you! Have you got a new one for us?
-
Good link ally... I was going through Miss Leigh in The Fog along with Hal Holbrook from Magnum Force...
I remember rounders from school.. tho' I don't think us boys were allowed to play it... :(
-
Xichado, always nice to hear from you! Have you got a new one for us?
Thanks, KC ;). I haven't been able to find the time to be around as much as I wish but is always good to be back.
Here's a new one:
Janette Scott who fought "a Triffid that spits poison and kills"
-
Janette Scott appeared in Bikini Paradise with Robert Beatty, who was in Where Eagles Dare!
-
Ok, how about Jay Leno, one of my fave talk show hosts!
Gant, fancy a game of rounders? ;)
-
well clint eastwood was on the tonight show with jay leno :) but that doesn't count
or
jay lenoi was in a movie with pat morita called collission couse, and Hillary Swank was The Next Karate Kid with Pat Morita or maybe that was Karate Kid 3 ?? and Hillary Swank is filming Million Dollar Baby with Clint Eastwood
Hopefully you get better answers than mine :) I'm still new to this
-
OK I cheated on this one.... Jay Leno was in Americathon with Chief Dan George from The Outlaw Josey Wales :)
-
How about Juliette Binoche ?
-
Juliette Binoche was in the most overrated film of 1996, The English Patient, with Liisa Repo-Martell, who played "Silky" in Unforgiven, where she was mis-billed as "Faith" ... in the credits she and Beverly Elliott, who played Faith, got switched around! :o
-
well clint eastwood was on the tonight show with jay leno :) but that doesn't count
Actually, Eastwood was IN a movie with Leno, namely Space Cowboys, where Leno played himself ... this probably should have been "disqualified," Allycat! ;)
-
That wasn't actually the link I was thinking of...you didn't get it! There's another film he's in...you missed it. I can't remember whether it's a two-stepper or not now...I think so!
Do you want me to post it or...?
-
Well I didn't realise about Leno being in Space Cowboys... obviously that wasn't my link...I didn't see it credited anywhere, I must have missed that one.
Ok, if someone else wants to post the next one then...KC? I'll post my link even though you think it wasn't legit ;) I would never want to do anything...illegal ;)
Leno was in American Hot Wax with Jo Ann Harris who was in The Beguiled.
-
Did you see Space Cowboys, Allycat? It's hard to forget about that Tonight Show scene. ;)
Since Jay Leno actually was in Americathon with Chief Dan George from The Outlaw Josey Wales, tmw3nyc won fair and square. If we had to wait in this game till someone gets "the link" that the poster had in mind, we might wait a long time. I think about 80-90% of the answers to mine have been other links than the one I had in mind.
I'm up next, since I got tmw3nyc's. I'll be back shortly ...
-
New one: Alain Delon.
I hope someone gets the link I have in mind this time ... it's a great movie. ;)
-
Well I know Alain Delon was in The Yellow Rolls-Royce(`64) with Shirley Maclaine(Two Mules For Sister Sara) but I don`t think you were after that or were you,KC ???I`ve seen this film and I thought it`s a mediocre film not a great film.
If you accept this the next one is DAVID CARRADINE(if we/you haven`t done this one earlier ???I haven`t been around for sometime now)
-
I certainly accept, Hemlock ... the one I was thinking of was Le cercle rouge (1970), a great, existential thriller by Jean-Pierre Melville with Delon and Gian Maria (Fistful of Dollars) Volonté.
-
I certainly accept, Hemlock ... the one I was thinking of was Le cercle rouge (1970), a great, existential thriller by Jean-Pierre Melville with Delon and Gian Maria (Fistful of Dollars) Volonté.
I´ve seen this many years ago.Maybe I was too young to understand it fully but I remeber that I liked all the same.
-
I got Carradine in Q The Winged Serpent alongside Michael Moriarty from Pale Rider and Richard Roundtree from City Heat... :)
Next...... Best dressed man in the world (when he was in I Spy) ;D
Robert Culp
-
Um, no...this sounds really bad again, but I haven't actually seen Space Cowboys! :-[ I remember posting on the board at the time it came out and saying that I had no one to go and see it with...and I never got around to buying it after it stopped showing at the cinema. So...you can slap my wrist for that one, too! I think it's showing on one of the Sky Movies channels here, or it was last I saw, so hopefully I'll watch it when it's next on...
I'll have to resume playing again tomorrow evening. I gotta go now... :-\
-
Robert Culp was in Inside Out(`75)with Telly Savalas(Kelly`s Heroes).
Next Eric Roberts ???
And allycat,you definitely should watch Space Cowboys.It`s not a masterpiece but very enjoyable.Donald Sutherland is hilarious in it...but I´m sure you`ve already heard all this :)
-
Eric Roberts was in The Specialist along with James Woods who was in True Crime....
I thought Roberts was great in The Pope of Greenwich Village. :)
-
Next... The elephant man himself.. John Hurt.
-
Eric Roberts was in The Specialist along with James Woods who was in True Crime....
I thought Roberts was great in The Pope of Greenwich Village. :)
Actually they just showed The Specialist in finnish TV.
I agree The Pope Of Greenwich Village is one of the best Eric Roberts films.I also liked him in Runaway Train.
-
Next... The elephant man himself.. John Hurt.
He was in Sam Peckinpah`s The Osterman Weekend(`83)with Dennis Hopper(Hang`Em High).
Next Lex Barker ::)
-
I like your segue from the Elephant Man to the King of the Apes, Hemlock!
Besides the Tarzan flicks for which he is probably best known in the U.S., Barker starred in a series of Euro-Westerns based on the novelistic output of the 19th century German pulp bard Karl May. In two of those, namely the original Winnetou (1963) and Winnetou und das Halbblut Apanatschi (Winnetou and the Half-Breed Apanatschi, 1966), one of his co-stars was Walter Barnes (High Plains Drifter, Bronco Billy). In another film in the series, Winnetou, Part 2 (1964), our friend the Hunchback from For a Few Dollars More, Klaus Kinski, makes an appearance.
-
New one: The original Man With No Name ...
Toshirô Mifune
-
I got lucky here.... ;D
Toshiro was in a John Frankenheimer movie called The CHallenge along with Scott Glenn who was in Absolute Power...
Is that your link KC ? I got a feeling theres more....
Next Lauren Bacall
-
It wasn't the one I had in mind, Gant, but it'll do just as well ... who would have thought Toshirô and Clint were connected by at least two actors who appeared in films with 'em!
-
Can I get this one?
Lauren was in Dogville (cool film!) with Patricia Clarkson who was in The Dead Pool.
-
How about Piper Laurie, wonderful star of, amongst other things, that wonderful series, Twin Peaks?
-
That was my exact Bacall link ally.... ;D
I remember Piper Laurie in the Hustler and thought she was fabulous... That was quite a career break afterwards wasn't it..... :o
I got her in a movie called The Crossing Guard along with Anjelica Huston who was in Bloodwork. ;)
-
Marianne Faithfull
-
shopping (a very noble occupation when looking for clint dvd's) - had jude law
who is in midnight in the garden of good and evil
next
daniel stern
-
Sorry vik.. but I think the link has to be to a movie Clint has acted in.... :)
-
Preferably. And there is definitely at least one one-stepper here ...
-
oh yes..... ;D
-
ok - rules is rules
timothy spall
intimacy
and white hunter black heart - hodkins - bush pilot
-
Actually, at the beginning of this thread, Holden says that in the previous incarnation of this game, films where Clint directs but doesn't act were allowed:
for purposes of this game in earlier incarnations on this board, we had been including Clint's credits as director but not actor (Bird, Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil, Breezy and the upcoming Mystic River).
So are they not in this version?
Anyway...just saying ;)
-
It wasn't the one I had in mind, Gant, but it'll do just as well ... who would have thought Toshirô and Clint were connected by at least two actors who appeared in films with 'em!
I´ll bet KC that you were thinkig of John Boorman`s Hell In The Pacific(`68)where Mifune was with Lee Marvin who`s dear old friend of Pardner ::)
By the way when vik got that Faitfull question right anyway so is Daniel Stern still next ???
-
By the way when vik got that Faitfull question right anyway so is Daniel Stern still next ???
and if so:Stern was in City Slickers II:The Legend Of Curly`s Gold(`94)with Bill McKinney(Pink Cadillac,Bronco Billy,Any which Way You Can,Every Which Way But Loose,The Gauntlet,The Outlaw Josey Wales & Thunderbolt And Lightfoot..did I get them all ::))
Next ALBERT FINNEY ???
-
I´ll bet KC that you were thinkig of John Boorman`s Hell In The Pacific(`68)where Mifune was with Lee Marvin who`s dear old friend of Pardner ::)
Actually, that's not the one I was thinking of, either. It was Spielberg's 1941 (1979), and when I look closer at the cast, I note that it featured no fewer than three Eastwoodites, but pretty minor ones ... namely Dub Taylor (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot), Michael McKean (True Crime) and Jerry Hardin (Honkytonk Man). So, I guess Gant's and yours are better, since they're better-known costars of Clint's ... 8)
-
I got Finney in The Dualists along with Alun Armstrong who was in White Hunter Black Heart... :)
Also the 81 flick Wolfen along with Diane Venora who was in Bird and True Crime..
...and Millers Crossing along with Marcia Gay Harden from Mystic River
-
Next.. The bride of Frankenstein herself...
Elsa Lanchaster
-
Right, got this one, though I probably don't have as much patience to find multiple links, as you do, Gant!
Elsa was in Willard (1971) with Sondra Locke, who of course, starred in the Every Which Way films, amongst others.
-
Next - very cool star of Kill Bill Vols 1 & 2:
Michael Madsen
-
Michael Madsen was in Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner (A Perfect World), Gene Hackman (Unforgiven, Absolute Power), and Jeff Fahey (White Hunter, Black Heart)
-
Here's quite an easy one: Bud Cort
-
Cort is perhaps best known for embodying one of the two title roles in Hal Ashby's 1971 Harold and Maude ... in the other title role was Ruth Gordon, "Ma Boggs" in the two Which Way films.
-
New one ... the just-departed Alan King ... R.I.P. :'(
It's pretty easy, I think. ;)
-
Who would've thought there'd be 4 actors called Alan King?!
Anyway, Alan King (I) starred in Miracle in the Rain (1956) with Eileen Heckart, Little Mary in Heartbreak Ridge.
-
Good work, Ally! Again, not the one I found, but just as good. You've become very sharp at this game.
-
Aw shucks, thanks, KC! ;D
How about the renowned Lillian Gish?
-
Lillian Gish was in The Comedians with Richard Burton from Where Eagles Dare.
-
Next: Richard Anderson
-
Anderson starred in one of my favourite (Kubrick) films, Paths of Glory, with Bert Freed who was in Hang 'em High as Schmidt, the Hangman.
-
Ok...a very funny man...John Lithgow.
-
Lithgow was in Terms of Endearment (1983) with Shirley MacLaine (Two Mules for Sister Sara) and Jeff Daniels (Blood Work).
-
New one: Theodore Bikel.
-
Theodore was in one of my favourite Columbo episodes.... ;D
Anyway.. I got him in Shadow conspiracy along with Donald Sutherland from Kellys Heros and Space Cowboys..
Bet you had a more exciting link than that KC... ;)
Sheen (Rookie) was also in that movie....
Next ...... American rock n roll icon
Gene Vincent
-
I'm gonna take a guess..
The Girl Can't Help It with Gene Vincent and Fats Domino and Fats Domino was in Any Which Way You Can.
-
Wow.. Great work Gino M. and unbelivably.. a different link to mine... :o
Still..alls fair etc etc.... I'll save mine for another go later..
Well done..over to you... ;)
-
Thanks!!
How about this one??? My girlfriend has been hounding me to post those this one all morning :)
Soap Opera Diva Susan Lucci
-
Lucci was in Young Doctors in Love (1982), along with Saul Rubineck, who starred as W.W. Beauchamp in Unforgiven.
-
Bet you won't get my link to this...but we'll see! Julie Newmar...mrowwl! (http://www.techhelpers.net/e4u/animal/tier11.gif)
Preferably I'd like a film where she didn't make a guest appearance as herself ;)
-
Hmmm.. this is gonna be a hard one... Can it be one where Clint appears as himself??? ;D
-
Hey Gino, I think you know what I mean ;) if you start from a Julie Newmar film in which she doesn't just make a guest appearance, and then link it to Clint...I know I don't set the rules, but I suddenly realised after posting this one that, unless I said that, you would get it in an instant! ;)
-
Well...either it's too hard now, or everyone's lost interest!
I guess if it's difficult, it interrupts the flow of the game. Anyway, if it is, then feel free to go with an easier one - I was just trying to make things more interesting! ;)
-
Actually Allycat.. this was a very good one.
Well.. I've got an answer.. but I wanted to search a bit more just to make sure that I had all of my bases covered.
But so far.. this is all that I could come up with.
Julie Newmar (not playing herself) and Bruce Dern were in a movie called "If... Dog... Rabbit", Dern was in a documentary movie called "A Decade Under the Influence." In this documentary movie, Clint and Bruce played themselves. (That was why I asked if Clint played himself. :))
I just realized how few movies Julie Newmar did where she didnt' play herself.
Ok.. Allycat... break it to me gently if I'm wrong. :D :D :D
-
That wasn't the link...but yours will do just fine, Gino! I think you put even more effort into that one that I did with mine! Mine was via the 1985 film Reel Horror. Julie starred with Catherine Bach in that one, and Bach starred as Melody, the girl Lightfoot hooks up with, in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. Actually, when I was referring to not using Julie's guest appearances, I just meant the ones listed as 'Herself - filmography' on the IMDB - in fact, there was only one actual film under that. But I guess I made it pretty confusing!
So...you're up. I think someone else will have to get your next one though, as I'm off to bed ;)
-
Actually, Clint and Bruce appeared together, NOT playing themselves, in a little number called Hang 'Em High ... so you can make the link from Julie to Clint via Bruce in one step and you don't have to use any movies where anybody played himself! Er herself! Er, you know what I mean! ;)
-
Wow KC, you never cease to amaze me! :D
As Gino made a link first, I guess he should go next. But KC, you get the gold star I was saving in my drawer for 'Outstanding Performance in the Field of Excellence.' ;)
C'mon, Gino, you're up!
-
Actually, Clint and Bruce appeared together, NOT playing themselves, in a little number called Hang 'Em High ... so you can make the link from Julie to Clint via Bruce in one step and you don't have to use any movies where anybody played himself! Er herself! Er, you know what I mean! ;)
KC.. you are absolutely amazing!!!!! I made it harder than I needed to make it. LOL LOL LOL
How about Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: TNG)
-
I got the Capt... in L.A Story along with Francis Fisher who was in Unforgiven and True Crime...
I like this one too much to let it go..so once again... A one stepper please from Clint to American Rock N Roll icon
Gene Vincent
..and this time round no Fats Domino please ;D ;)
Clint tells a great story about Fats in the Piano Blues doc.
-
LOL... I just saw Kevin Bacon playing degree of seperation on some American sit com.. He linked himself to Tom Cruise in one step... ;D ;D
Come on then..ally, is this one too tough for ya.... ;)
-
I haven't tried yet! Patience, my friend ;)
-
Ok...here's the first link - I think we should be allowed any Clint film, so on that basis, there's this link:
Vincent was in Hot Rod Gang (1958) with Lester Dorr, who starred with Clint in First Traveling Saleslady.
But if you don't want to go with that, then there's this link: Dub Taylor also starred in Hot Rod Gang with Vincent, and appeared in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (yay! Another connection) as the Station Attendant.
Howzat? Double the fun! ;)
-
Superb work ally... ;D Many say Vincents best acting was in Hot Rod Gang.... ;)
Dub was my man...... over to you.
-
Wow, I got your link? Cool!
Next...try O.J. Simpson. One of these days you'll get the link I'm thinking of ;)
-
OK... I 've found two links.
The easy link is O. J. Simpson and George Kennedy was in the first Naked Gun movie. Kennedy was in The Eiger Santion with Clint.
Next one could be O. J. Simpson and Todd Brant was in Back to the Beach. Bryant was in Blood Work with Clint.
Allycat.. did I get any of then right???? ROFL ROFL ROFL, It would be my luck for neither of these links are the ones that you're thinking of. ;D ;D ;D
-
No Gino, you did well but didn't get my link! ;)
Mine was via Capricorn One (1978) - OJ starred in that with David Doyle, who was Pushie the tavern owner in Coogan's Bluff.
So - your turn! I am sadly going to bed in the next half hour so I'll have to play again later...
ally :)
-
No Gino, you did well but didn't get my link! ;)
Mine was via Capricorn One (1978) - OJ starred in that with David Doyle, who was Pushie the tavern owner in Coogan's Bluff.
LOL LOL... you know...I had a feeling that I didn't get your link.. LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
How about Barbara Stanwyck.
-
The wonderful Barbara Stanwyck was in The Violent Men along with James Westerfield who was in Hang Em High....
-
A nice easy one for the weekend..... ;)
Bette Davis
-
Got it already! Bette was in Death on the Nile (1978) with George Kennedy who was Ben Bowman in the Eiger Sanction, and he was also Red Leary in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
-
Have a go with Sterling Hayden, a great actor...and I'll bet good money that you won't get my link ;)
I'll just say it's via one of my favourite films with him in. An early one ;) Say, 1950s ;)
-
I might be very close to the exact link you have in mind, but you gave a very good hint.
Sterling Hayden was in Kubrick's The Killing with James Edwards from Coogan's Bluff.
-
Would that be the baroque Nick Ray cult Western, Johnny Guitar (http://members.aol.com/michaemann/jgmain.html) (1954), in which Sterling played the title role (Johnny, not the guitar) opposite Joan Crawford as the tough, pistol-packing, pants-wearing saloon owner with the shady past, Vienna? If so, your link could be Royal Dano, "Ten Spot" in (The Outlaw Josey Wales) ... or further down the cast list, we find Dennis Hopper (Hang 'Em High), uncredited.
Johnny: How many men have you forgotten?
Vienna: As many women as you've remembered.
Something's a little off in the logic of that quote, but you know what she means ... ??? :o ;)
-
Ooops, Christopher posted while I was composing that ... regardless of whether he, or I, or neither of us has Ally's link, he beat me to the punch and is entitled to post the next one! :)
Hayden played "Johnny Clay" in The Killing. I guess he just looked like a "Johhny"! ;)
-
Christina Ricci
-
Hi guys!
Christopher, I know you know I love The Killing, but I actually made my link via The Asphalt Jungle (1950), which is also one of my favourites. John McIntire was also in that film, as well as being Grandpa in Honkytonk Man!
Anyway, Christina Ricci was in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (a crazy, hilarious film!) and so was Michael Jeter (sadly now passed away), who also appeared in True Crime as Dale Porterhouse.
-
Ok, next up - Canadian actor Michael Ironside. My link is...through an '80s film ;)
-
Ally, if you've never seen Johnny Guitar, you should check it out ... it's hysterical!
-
Could your link be via Cronenberg's Scanners (1981)? Patrick McGoohan (Escape from Alcatraz) was in that one.
-
KC, you're a star! You got it exactly! :D
Your turn!
-
What about ballet dancer and sometime actor Alexander Godunov ... died much too young of "acute alcohol syndrome," according to the IMDb ... :'(
-
Hey KC, I've got Alexander in Die Hard, with Robert Davi, who appeared in City Heat as Nino.
-
How about a much-discussed and loved actor on the board, Sly Stallone?
I bet there's so many ways to do this one...my way is via a mid-1990s film ;) But any which way is cool...
Oh, and KC, I will be sure to check out Johnny Guitar sometime :D
-
It took me a little longer than it should have to find a connection, considering I've seen the movie I'm using to connect him with. ::)
Sylvester Stallone starred in Lock Up with Donald Sutherland from Kelly's Heroes and Space Cowboys.
Ally, were you thinking of The Specialist co-starring James Woods (True Crime)?
-
Next: Peter Boyle
-
Nah, I was using the brilliant Judge Dredd...going via Mitch Ryan who also appeared in High Plains Drifter...I always make these links more complicated and then someone comes along and finds a much easier one! ::) ;)
-
I found that Peter Boyle appeared in a film called Hammett (1982), with Jack Nance, (who was fantastic in Eraserhead and the Twin Peaks series). Nance also starred in City Heat.
Next, I choose the German actress and singer Nico, who also sang with one of my favourite bands, The Velvet Underground.
-
Nico is a snap, as she appeared (uncredited) in the notorious The Sandpiper with Richard (Where Eagles Dare) Burton.
She was also in something called Les hautes solitudes with Jean (Paint Your Wagon) Seberg. This item may have the funniest summary yet on the IMDb ...
Biographical film about Jean Seberg, losely based on Nitschz's [sic] Anti-Christ
-
Yeah KC, I made the latter connection!
The IMDb doesn't always get it right, does it?! ;)
Have you got another one?
-
How about the ever lovely Claudette Colbert?
(http://www.internetschriftsteller.de/claudette-ordner/claudette-portrait.jpg)
-
Gant, where are ya, I thought you might've already got this one!
In the absence of any takers, I'll go with this link:
Claudette starred in Texas Lady (1955) with Gregory Walcott, who appeared in no less than four Clint films: Joe Kidd, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction and Every Which Way But Loose. No wonder his name was so familiar...
-
Ok, Alan Ladd, star of Shane, one of my favourite westerns.
-
I had to work for this one ally...... ;)
Ladd was in a movie called Hell on Frisco Bay along with an actor called Perry Lopez who was in Kelly's Heroes as Pvt Petuko ..(don't remember him.....)
-
Next...actress who had a bit part in one of my fave movies, another Nick Ray movie... In A Lonely Place...
June Vincent
-
Well done Gant! That wasn't even my link...mine was via Richard Devon, who starred in both The Badlanders with Alan Ladd, and Magnum Force with Clint.
I can't believe how long this took...but I found that George Chandler starred with June Vincent in The WAC from Walla, Walla (1952) and also appeared in Every Which Way But Loose as the Clerk at the DMV. If this isn't your link, I don't know what is!
Oh, and you owe me that drink, now ;)
-
Next up, the much-missed Dudley Moore. Once again, I think I made my link more complicated than it needed to be ::)
-
Dudley Moore was in The Pickle(`93)with Chris Penn(Pale Rider).
Next Ava Gardner ???
-
Ava appeared in the 1977 film The Sentinel, with Eli Wallach, who of course appeared in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
-
Next...Joan Fontaine.
-
The lovely Joan was in A Certain Smile with our fave boss's McKay/Briggs ...Bradford Dillman from The Enforcer and Sudden Impact....
Double or quits on the next one ;)
Una O'Conner
oh yeah ally..... Chandler wasn't my link.. :o Well done. Get this and I'll make em doubles.... ;D
-
Gant, I was wondering whether your link for Ava was via The Night of the Iguana, with Ava and Richard "Where Eagles Dare" Burton? ???
-
Sorry KC... I didn't have a link for Ava.... ???
-
This practically took me all day! (well, except when I was at work). I don't sound like I have a life now :-[
I should have known that there was a Michael Horndern connection! (what is it with you and him, Gant?!) Anyway, Mr Horndern appeared uncredited in The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) with Una O' Connor, and also with Clint in Where Eagles Dare.
Now my turn...at long last! Give me a few mins to find a good one...
-
Next...Ronald Reagan. And you know the really funny thing...he made a film in 1941 called...Million Dollar Baby! Doesn't seem to be about boxing though...
-
Ronald Reagan was in Don Siegel`s The Killers with Lee Marvin(Paint Your Wagon).
I once got an opportunity to see this film but I chose Richard Gere film Breathless instead :-[.Believe I´m still kicking myself.I would very much like to see The Killers.Sounds like a cool film.
Next Matthew McConaughey ???
-
Sorry KC... I didn't have a link for Ava.... ???
OOOoooooops, I meant Hemlock! Sorry, I posted in haste this AM. :-[
-
The Ava Gardner link that I had in mind was The Cassandra Crossing.Richard Harris(Unforgiven)was in it too.
It`s quite a horrible film.
-
Could we possibly just forget Michael Hordern ever existed.. >:( Well done ally, not my link but just as good...drinks on me. ;)
-
Matthew was in Amistad along with Morgan (Unforgiven) Freeman... :)
Next up..... Gina Lollobrigida
-
Gant, you just beat me with Matthew, I had another one for him. Oh well ... Gina Lollobrigida was in Bad Man's River (1971) with Lee "Mortimer," "Angel Eyes" Van Cleef and the legendary Aldo Sambrell (small parts in all three "Dollars" films).
-
Next: Elliott Gould.
-
I suppose I should've worked harder for this KC, but I went for the obvious connection! Elliott Gould starred in MASH (1970) with Donald Sutherland, Clint's co-star in Space Cowboys and Kelly's Heroes. Of course, Robert Duvall, also in MASH, appeared in Joe Kidd.
(Appropriately for this game, Donald Sutherland appeared in a film called Six Degrees of Separation (1993).)
On the theme of doubles...I'll have a martini x2 Gant! ;D
Stand by...another actor on the way...
-
Ok, how about an actor sadly not quite as famous as his brothers...Stephen Baldwin. Check out that hilarious and slightly disturbing pic on the IMDB! ;D
-
Stephen was in Friends & Lovers (1999) with none other than Alison (Bronco Billy, Tightrope, Absolute Power, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil) Eastwood.
-
I hope it was OK for me to use the obvious link there, Ally ...
Ginger Rogers, of course, was IN a film with Clint, namely The First Traveling Saleslady. But since we've agreed not to count those "incunabula" in this game ... I'll propose her as the next challenge.
-
Yeah, that was fine, KC! It wasn't the link I had chosen, anyway...I went via Lara Flynn Boyle who appeared in The Rookie...
Back to Ginger...who starred in The Confession (1964) with David Hurst of Kelly's Heroes...
-
How about Edward G. Robinson, star of one of my fave film noirs, Double Indemnity?
Right, I'm off to eat me tea... ;)
-
Edward G. Robinson did The Cincinnati Kid with Rip Torn (City Heat).
-
Next: Karen Black
-
Next: Karen Black
There was plenty of links between Black and Eastwood.Forexample Karen Black was in The Outfit with Robert Duvall(Joe Kidd),You`re A Big Boy Now with Rip Torn(City Heat),Airport`75 with George Kennedy(The Eiger Sanction,Thundebolt&Lightfoot)and most recently in Firecracker(made this year)with Dennis Hopper(Hang`Em High).
Next James Fox ???
-
James Fox was in A Passage to India along with Absolute Power's Judy Davis.... :)
-
..and in Rush Hour with Chris Penn of Pale Rider.
Give us a new one Gant.
-
Next up..tragic child actor Bobby Driscoll....
Ally..get this and it's double martinis all round..of course ya gotta be first... ;)
-
Next up..tragic child actor Bobby Driscoll....
He was in The Scarlet Coat(`55)wit John McIntire(Honkytonk Man).
Sorry Gant I`m not Ally but I sure could use couple of martinis ;D
Next Burl Ives ???
-
You just beat me to it! Oh well I'll post mine in the hope that I'll get a half ;)
Driscoll appeared in The Happy Time with Gene Collins who appeared in Kelly's Heroes.
-
Ok, Burl Ives appeared in The Big Country with Chuck Hayward, who was a stunt guy and also an actor in Joe Kidd, and a stunt guy in High Plains Drifter.
-
How about George Raft?
-
Well done both of you...I thought that might stick around a bit longer.. Collins (babra) from Kelly's heroes was my link.. In fact Collins has been my link for quite some time now...
Martinis all round..unfortunately ally you was beat so....out with the green paint... ;)
On with the show...
-
Raft was in Hamersmith is out with fellow eagle Richard Burton... :)
-
Well done both of you...I thought that might stick around a bit longer.. Collins (babra) from Kelly's heroes was my link.. In fact Collins has been my link for quite some time now...
Martinis all round..unfortunately ally you was beat so....out with the green paint... ;)
Well, I got your exact link, I think I should get brownie points for that! ;) And green paint...I think I have to explain here that for some reason, as forfeit, you want me to dress up as the green belly-dancing woman in the Star Trek original series credits - which won't be happening, I hasten to add ::)
Go on then...your turn! Though that wasn't my link ;) You're incorrigible...
-
;D Hey..it worked for James T..
OK, next up. Star of Bewitched Elizabeth Montgomery..
and her appearance in Rawhide DON'T count.. ;D
Go........
-
I'm sure I used this guy before...Gregory Walcott appeared in The Court-Martial of Billy Mitchell (1955) with Elizabeth Montgomery, and was also in Joe Kidd and Every Which Way But Loose.
I'll leave you with this one, as it's time for (http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/contrib/edoom/sleeping.gif)
Former star of Beverly Hills 90210, Jason Priestley
-
Wow, this moves along fast ... :o
Another quick link for Karen Black on the previous page (just because I remember it from my Hitchcock days): She was in Hitch's last flick, Family Plot (1976) with Bruce Dern (Hang 'Em High), William Devane (Space Cowboys) and William Prince (The Gauntlet, Bronco Billy).
As for Jason Priestley, somehow I think you have a better one in mind, but I found him in Hacks (1997) with Matt Clark, who was in The Beguiled, The Outlaw Josey Wales and Honkytonk Man.
-
New one: The just-deceased :'( Tony Randall, R.I.P. ... No fair going via Rock Hudson; his one picture with Clint (Never Say Goodbye) is "off limits." ;)
-
Tony Randall was in Foolin`Around(`80)with Gary Busey(Thunderbolt And Lightfoot).
Next Mel Brooks...or have we done this already ???
-
I didn't know Randall had passed on... :( I liked him in the Odd Couple..
OK..Brooks was in History of the world pt 1 along with City Heats Madeline Kahn.... :)
I'm sure we've had the thin white duke before but lets have another crack at him...
David Bowie
-
Yay Gant, an excellent choice!
Dave was in Nicolas Roeg's weird but wonderful The Man Who Fell To Earth (1976), with Rip Torn, who appeared in City Heat.
KC, there was a more obvious one for Jason Priestley ;) He appeared in Eye of the Beholder (1999) with Genevieve Bujold, star of one of my faves, Tightrope.
-
Next up, I nominate Patrick Swayze...wasn't he just so gorgeous in Ghost? ;D
-
I've got Patrick in Next of Kin (1989) with Liam Neeson of The Dead Pool. :)
-
What about the very lovely lady:
Cameron Diaz
-
I got ole spotty in Gangs of NY with Neeson again... :) ( I like her really ;)
Next Michael Berryman
-
Michael Berryman was in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (but I'll always think of him as Pluto ;)) with Scatman Crothers (Bronco Billy).
-
Next: Raymond Burr
-
I got Raymond Burr alongside Rip Torn (City Heat) in Airplane II.
Actually for Cameron Diaz I was thinking of a non-Leeson connection... Jim Carey.
-
Next Ol' Blue Eyes
Frank Sinatra
-
I got Frank using Robert Duvall again as the connection....they starred together in The Detective (1968), and Duvall appeared in Joe Kidd.
-
How about Laura Palmer herself...Twin Peaks star Sheryl Lee? And you can't use Everett McGill as the link between her and Clint via the Twin Peaks film, because his scenes were deleted in that one ;)
-
I got her in Jersey Girl with Dylan (In the Line of Fire) McDermott. :)
-
OK back to:
Frank Sinatra
This time no Duvall connections allowed. ;)
-
You got my link exactly, bigdai!
I'm not sure whether it's fair to submit Sinatra again ;)
In any case, I found that he starred with Lee Marvin in Not as a Stranger (1955), and Marvin also appeared in Paint Your Wagon.
-
Next up...Lynn Redgrave, sister of Vanessa.
-
How about Laura Palmer herself...Twin Peaks star Sheryl Lee? And you can't use Everett McGill as the link between her and Clint via the Twin Peaks film, because his scenes were deleted in that one ;)
Still unnecessary to look beyond Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, as Harry Dean Stanton (Kelly's Heroes) was in it ... ;)
-
I gotta hand it to you KC, nothing ever escapes your eagle eyes ;)
Found a link yet?
-
Lynn played "The Queen" in Woody Allen's Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask with Burt Reynolds (City Heat), who was, what else ... the "Sperm Switchboard Chief."
-
What about Lynn's pop ... Sir Michael Redgrave? Should be easy ... :D
-
Lynn was in Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex, But Were Afraid To Ask also featuring Burt (City Heat) Reynolds.
:)
-
I was going to go for Frank again but won't for fear of upsetting Allycat ;).
Instead a nice easy one:
The man with the greatest voice in film history:
James Mason
-
Sorr KC, I didn't see your previous answer. My computer didn't load it for some reason. I'll work on Michael.
-
I hope bigdai doesn't mind me stepping in here, as I've found a link for Michael Redgrave. He was in The Heroes of Telemark (1965), with Richard Harris of Unforgiven fame. Was that your obvious link KC? ;)
As I've also found that James Mason starred in The Desert Rats (1953) with Richard Burton of Where Eagles Dare, I hope it's ok if I post the next one!
-
Ooh, I found an interesting one! (Well, for me, anyway) Find a link for William Hartnell, the first to play the Doctor in Doctor Who...
-
Yup, you found "my" link, Ally! Good work!
-
William Hartnell was in the Peter Sellers vehicle The Mouse That Roared with Jean Seberg (Paint Your Wagon). I note that the director was Jack Arnold ... who helmed two early Eastwood films, Revenge of the Creature and Tarantula. Don't know if Ally thinks that's interesting ... but I do. ;)
-
didn't mind you stepping in at all allycat, I couldn't work that one out :-\ :).
What's next KC?
-
Sorry! I almost forgot ...
How about William Powell?
-
Nice one ;D
I got Powell in Mr Roberts along with Gregory Walcott from
Thunderbolt and Lightfoot/The Eiger Sanction and Every Which Way but Loose..... ;)
-
and Joe Kidd....
Next Oliver Hardy
-
... and once again the "Degrees" crown finds it's rightful place upon the head of King Gant..... ;D ;D ;D
Gotcha all ain't I.......... :-* ;)
-
Gimme a chance, Gant ... watching a "Rounders" game ... ;)
-
Well, there's a hell of a lot of films for us to go through...our links are always a lot easier! It's taking me a while, so the race is on, KC! By the way your link for William Hartnell was interesting! :)
Gant...be prepared to be deposed... ;D
Hehe...I just saw the 'rounders' thing...I shall be watching some of that myself this weekend, thanks to Matt for the tape ;)
-
I hope Matt sent you Game Seven of last year's American League Championship Series, Ally! That was the best baseball game EVER! ;D
Today's game ... on the other hand ... >:( >:( >:(
I found a Hardy-Dub Taylor (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot) connection, Gant ... they were in Capra's Riding High (1950) ... don't like to count that one though, as it says Hardy is "uncredited" as a "Horse player" and that sounds a bit dubious to me.
-
No, KC, Matt sent me a couple of games from a couple of weeks ago - when the Yankees won a few games in a row after their bad patch. I'm finding American rounders pretty interesting! ;)
Well, I've got to head to bed earlier for once, so maybe we should go with your connection, KC - I've run out of time and patience :'( I guess this time Gant gets the drinks bought for him!
There were just too many films...and not enough time :)
Oh, and I changed my avatar, albeit temporarily - I got tired of waiting for someone to make me a Jeff 'n' Clint Thunderbolt and Lightfoot one ;) This one's pretty...
-
I found a better one! The Fighting Kentuckian (1949) had Hardy as "Willie Paine" ... and good old Hank Worden (Every Which Way but Loose, Bronco Billy).
New one ... I know it won't be hard but I've gotta run ... Yankee great Joe DiMaggio's ex-wife, Marilyn Monroe.
-
Well done KC... Worden it was.... ;D
-
I got Marilyn in The Misfits along with Eli Wallach from GBU.... :) I've never been a fan of hers, jus' not my type I guess tho' I remember thinkin' Misfits was an ok film..
Next..... Joanne Woodward
Hope your rounders team won KC...... ;)
-
wusa - pat hingle - hang em high , gauntlet, sudden impact
next : - john wayne
-
I got JW in Rooster Cogburn with John McIntire, of Honkytonk Man fame.
What about the lovely Kim Novak...
-
Ally, the Duck, I mean Duke was also in The Fighting Kentuckian with Oliver Hardy and Hank Worden ... just so you know. ;)
-
Oh, I remember that one now KC! I needn't have looked for a separate film...vik, did you know you made that one too easy for us? ;)
So, did you get one for Kim Novak yet KC? I love her in Vertigo...
-
hope it was easy allycat considering how many films duck was in ;)
especially quack quack give me grit - umm or somthin like that and its sequel rooster quack quack
-
Kim was in a rather grim lookin' little horror film called Tales that witness Madness along with Donald Huston who was Capt James Christiansen in Where Eagles Dare.....
-
Right..cos I watched The Great Escape this afternoon, an unusualy easy one from Gant...
Charles Bronson
C'mon gang..lets see who's quickest off the mark ;D
-
Heck, without looking I know Once Upon a Time in the West must provide several Bronson-Clint links among Leone's "rep" players ... does that "count," Gant?
-
I'm trying to write two posts at once here!
Well...I'm trying to pip you to the post KC! My link for Kim Novak was via The White Buffalo, which also starred Charles Bronson, and Scott Walker, who was in High Plains Drifter! So my earlier link gave me the answer, hehe!
So - who gets to post the next one? KC, you didn't name a specific actor, so... ;)
-
Sure enough, Aldo Sambrell, Benito Stefanelli, and Antonio Molino Rojo, who were in one or more "Dollars" films, were all in Once Upon a Time in the West.
-
I must confess.. I didn't even bother to look up a link for Charlie..I guesed there must be several.... I don't mind which.... ;)
-
I'm trying to write two posts at once here!
Well...I'm trying to pip you to the post KC! My link for Kim Novak was via The White Buffalo, which also starred Charles Bronson, and Scott Walker, who was in High Plains Drifter! So my earlier link gave me the answer, hehe!
So - who gets to post the next one? KC, you didn't name a specific actor, so... ;)
Ally, I'll happily cede the right to post the next one to you ... Can't believe how long this "rounders" game is dragging on, and I have some errands to run ... ah FINALLY the Yankees win! ;D
-
Yay the Yankees! Well, Matt will be happy anyway :)
That wasn't Scott Walker the singer btw, though it would've been fun if it had been! What a lovely voice...
Ok KC, I'll do the next one. Let's see...how about Debbie Reynolds...loved her in Singin' in the Rain :)
-
Debbie was in How the west was one along with Eli Wallach as Charlie Gant.... ;D
-
Here you go
Halle Berry
Night night...... ;)
-
What, off to bed already?! Spoilsport...
I gotcha...Halle was in Strictly Business with Paul Butler who appeared in The Rookie...
-
Very good.. I had her in Bullworth with Isaiah Washington from True Crime...
Give em a tough one I can crack in the mornin'.... ;)
-
Ha, you're sure of yourself ;)
Ok, I'll go with...
Clark Gable
Chew on that one! Actually, I don't think it's very hard :-\ I'm not that good...
Oh, and a bit of useless info - I first discovered Clark in Gone With the Wind at the age of 5 or so...I fell in love with the man I thought was called 'Red'...but just like Elvis, he broke my heart, by being dead...
(Hey, that rhymes!)
-
Clarke Gable was in Gone with the wind with Vivien Leigh who was in Streetcar named Desire with Brando who was in the Score with DeNiro who was in Once Upon a time directed by Sergio Leone, who directed Clint in Fistful, Few Dollars More, and GBU. 5 degrees... ::)
-
Thanks Chessie, but we usually have to find a connection in as few steps as possible (look at earlier posts for examples). Also, preferably it has to be via an actor who's starred with Clint in one of his films. Call us weird, but that's just the version we play ;) Also, as KC has stated earlier, we don't include Clint's films from before he was famous (I think we did in an earlier version of this game, but not this one!) - so, as a link you can go via any actor in any film Clint's starred in from A Fistful of Dollars onwards, basically...
Hope I didn't make it too confusing for you! ;)
-
Well, we used The Misfits (Eli Wallach, Tuco in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) yesterday for Monroe, and Gable was in that one too, so ... ;)
I don't have time to look for another one now, so Chessie, if you want to take a turn, be my guest! :)
-
no worries I understand... cool beans ::)
-
Cmon, Chessie, go for it ... give us a new one!
-
A new one you ask for... hmmm... Sean Connery... Hopefully you haven't done him allready... ::)
-
Connery was part of that great cast in the late 50's English flick Hell Drivers along with Patrick (No. 6 ;) ) McGoohan who was in Escape From Alcatraz.....
-
New one....
Rae Dawn Chong
and one extra plastic peanut for anyone who can tell me where the word alcatraz comes from and it's original meaning.... ;D
-
I'm sure KC will find a better link for this, but seeing as I found this one in about 30 seconds flat, I wanted to post it and be rather smug about it ;) ;D
Chong appeared in The Color Purple with Margaret Avery who was a prostitute in Magnum Force.
Oh and I confess to having some help here (thank you, Mr. Internet ;)) but I hope this is what you're after, Gant, regarding Alcatraz!
The name Alcatraz is derived from the Spanish "Alcatraces." In 1775, the Spanish explorer Juan Manuel de Ayala was the first to sail into what is now known as San Francisco Bay - his expedition mapped the bay, and named one of the three islands Alcatraces; over time, the name was Anglicized to Alcatraz. While the exact meaning is still debated, Alcatraz is usually defined as meaning "pelican" or "strange bird."
-
You must be hard up, too, Mr Gant, if you can't afford real peanuts! ;) But I will take the plastic one :D
Ok, seeing as we're offering incentives now, a Cadburys chocolate bar (a speciality of my city) to the first person to get the next link. And if my American pals want to know how good they taste, ask Matt the moderator, as he has sampled their delights! Lucky, lucky man...
I leave you with foxy Ms. Pam Grier...
-
Pam Grier was in Friday Foster (1975) with Scatman Crowthers (Bronco Billy) ... or if you prefer to re-use Margaret Avery, she was in Cool Breeze (1972)with Pam. ;)
I'll take TWO Cadbury bars, please ... ;D
-
New one: He was "Davy Crockett" for Disney ... and he also played "Clint" ... in Smoky (1966) ... but how is connected to the REAL Clint? Fess Parker.
-
damn you mean there is a REAL clint eastwood i always thought he was one of them cut outs ;)
so thats hell is for heroes with harry guardino of dirty harry and the enforcer (lt al bressler) and any which way you can
next: buddy ebsen
-
Ok, two it is, KC! :)
I got Buddy in Mail Order Bride with William Smith who played Jack Wilson in Any Which Way You Can.
How about Kris Kristofferson?
-
Well done ally, spot on. One plas peanut I owe ya.... ;)
Ok... Kris was in one of Gibsons better efforts Payback along with Space Cowboys William Devane...
-
Right... have a go at the very lovely.
Annette Funicello
-
I got Annette in Bikini Beach alongside Don Rickles, star of Kelly's Heroes...
Right, I want to make the next one a toughie :)
-
Ok, I probably haven't succeeded, but how about tragic star Carole Lombard? The good ones always die young...
-
The lovely Lombard was in In Name Only (1939) with Alan Baxter, who played Fenty in Paint Your Wagon.
OK, we had Oliver Hardy ... what about Stan Laurel?
-
This was quite tough.....
I found our old friend Hank Worden (Bronco Billy) in one of Stan and Ollies lesser eforts The Bullfighters... Was this your link KC..?
Next James Dean
-
....... and just to make it interesting.. no Dennis Hoppers allowed. ;)
-
I didn't think I would get this one so quickly! ;D
The beautiful Jimmy Dean appeared in East of Eden with Richard Davalos who was in Kelly's Heroes as Private Gutowski. Interestingly, Davalos did actually appear with Dennis Hopper in Cool Hand Luke...
Next up, have fun finding a link for Ellen Burstyn.
-
I had a non-Worden link in mind, Gant, but that'll do ... what do you have against Giant? ;)
Ally ... Ellen Burstyn was in The Exorcist with Lee J. Cobb (Coogan's Bluff).
-
Next: German actress and chanteuse Hildegard Knef ... known during her brief Hollywood career as Hildegard Neff.
-
My Dean link was Robert Williams from Rebel without a pause.... ;D He was the grave digger from Hang em High....
Righto..on with the next one.... ???
-
;D ;D ;D
Got her..... :) Hildegard was in Diplomatic Courier along with Paint Your Wagons Lee Marvin. She was also in Decision Before Dawn which was co written by Peter Viertel ;D
I'll just pat myself on the back for that... ;)
Right, even tho' I've never watched a Star Wars film.. I still know who R2 D2 is..... so lets see you link him.. ;D
Kenny Baker
-
I tried to find a link another way as I didn't want to find one via one of my least favourite films, but eventually had to succumb via the travesty that is The Phantom Menace. Kenny was in this, playing his usual role, with Liam Neeson who starred in The Dead Pool.
And Kenny was born in Birmingham in England, same as me ;D
What an illustrious film career - not only has he starred in all of the Star Wars films (Gant, you have to watch Episodes IV and V at least!), but he also starred in Boobs in the Wood as Bruce Foreskin :-X Sorry, I just thought that was funny!
Find a link for Vera Miles, who had a small part in Psycho and was so nearly the star of Vertigo...
-
I got Vera in Twilights Last Gleaming along with our old pal and ace baddie William Smith from Any Which Way You Can.... ;D
Right.. gloves off time/Men from the boys/Hardball....
Kenny Baker...Again tho' this time without Neeson...... :o ;D ;D ;)
-
Kenny was in Amadeus (1984) with Christine Ebersole of True Crime fame ... He played the "Parody Commendatore." :o
I'll have another one a bit later on. Gotta run ...
-
Jeeeesh :o :o
I'll beat you gals at this game if it's the last thing I do ;)
-
Damn, I was looking so hard for that one I missed it...I just went through all the actors in that film! ::)
I think we've separated the women from the men on this one, Gant...I'm not sure you should be allowed to post the same one twice...that's the second time you've done it! ;) ;) Next time I get to bend the rules ;D
-
Try to connect Peter Doyle to Clint.
-
Adam, the rule is, you have to get one before you can post one. I got the last one, so I'me entitled to post the next one, which I'll do shortly. But ... since you asked, which Peter Doyle? There are six listed in the IMDb, and two are actors, but one only does voices and the other has only one credit for a TV production called "The Eurovision Song Contest." If you mean one of the Doyles with technical credits, you should say so, but in this game, we usually use actors.
-
OK, I have a new one ... in keeping with the "Mozart" theme (from Amadeus): Hans Holt, who played Mozart in The Mozart Story (1948). Have fun!
-
I got Hans in Götz von Berlichingen mit der eisernen Hand (aka Iron Hand) with Reiner Schone, who also appeared in The Eiger Sanction ;D
Had to post this quick as I see Gant looming on the horizon... ;)
-
Good work, Ally!
-
Thanks KC :-*
Next, try the yummy Errol Flynn. Not that hard, but I have to go back to work... ;)
-
Gant, you have officially been deposed...the girls are in the lead, yeaaah!!! ;D
-
Flynn starred in Walsh's Northern Pursuit (1943) with Tom Tully, who played Sheriff McCrea in Coogan's Bluff.
-
Next: Screen goddess and scientific innovator Hedy Lamarr ... who knew?
(http://graphics7.nytimes.com/images/2004/05/04/science/04film.1.184.jpg)
Hollywood Star's Wartime Secret Becomes a Screenplay (http://www.nytimes.com/2004/05/04/science/04FILM.html?ex=1085716800&en=e7213d0358bb1247&ei=5070)
-
Hedy appeared in The Story of Mankind (1957) with Dennis Hopper, star of Hang 'Em High.
Stand by for another!
-
Have we had English actor Roddy McDowell before? Well, here he is, anyway! He made a lot of films, but none of them with Clint. And I don't know if this makes any difference...but make the connection without using any 'Ape' films ;)
-
Gant is back bigger and better than ever ;)
Easy peasy...... McDowell was all upside down in The Poseiden Adventure along with Unforgivens/Absolute Power's Gene Hackman. I saw this one at the cinema with my Ma.... ;D
-
New un...
Marty Feldman
-
Well, it took you long enough ;)
I'll maybe have a go after watching Firefox tonight...don't speak too soon!!!
(A bit of editing there...my copy of Sudden Impact won't play! :'( Knew I should've got around to getting it on DVD...)
-
;D ;) ok
-
Here's one I know without looking it up ... Marty was Igor ("Eye-Gor") in Young Frankenstein (1974) ... with Madeline Kahn from City Heat. They both died much too young ... :'(
-
New one: Jimmy Durante.
-
Ole Jimmy was in Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad world along with Charles McGraw who played the Sherrif in Hang Em High.... ;D Was this your link KC.
I've only seen this movie once a long time ago.... I wasn't over impressed but I guess I should give it another go... (talkin' bout H.E.H)
Ok..... a toughie for the weekend...
Tony Beckley
A veteran of the English stage and memorable as the creepy killer in When A Stranger Calls..... ;)
-
Tony Beckley was in Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978) with Ferdy Mayne .... Gen. Rosemeyer in Where Eagles Dare.
-
Have we had Romy Schneider yet? There's at least one "easy" link for her, though I got to her via a more obscure one ...
-
I guess the "easy" one is Eli Wallach (Tuco from GBU) who was in The Victors, with Romy Schnieder. ???
-
Well, that's one of 'em, Brendan ... got a new one? :D
-
I can't think of anyone at the moment, well at least no one we haven't already had, so you can go ahead and post another one.
-
Nothing doing. You won, fair and square ... you find another. ;)
If Brendan doesn't have one, anyone else who has a good one is welcome to post it. It's getting harder to think up new ones than answer these.
-
Gant to the rescue
Louise Beavers
-
C'mon gals.. first one to get it.... drinks on me in the Mission Ranch lounge bar..... ;)
-
Will Clint join us? ;D
Louise was in The Goddess (1958) with good ol' Bert Freed (Schmidt, the Hangman in Hang 'Em High).
-
Lets hope so.. he might let me run a tab...
Well done KC.... ;)
-
New one: Eve Arden.
-
Is Hank Worden the new Michael Hordern..were they related ???
Hank was in Curtain call at Cactus Creek along with Eve....
-
The Lone Ranger himself.....
Clayton Moore
-
Clayton Moore was in The Bandits of Corsica with Lee Van Cleef (Angel Eyes, GBU).
NEXT:
Jeff Gordon ;D
-
Well, that wasn't too hard, Brendan, as Gordon seems only to have appeared in one actual movie, Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003) ... and also appearing in that was Bill McKinney, he of the multiple appearances in Eastwood films: Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose, Bronco Billy, Any Which Way You Can, and Pink Cadillac.
-
This one's real easy, but what the hey ...
Jay (Tonto) Silverheels
-
Well, that wasn't too hard, Brendan, as Gordon seems only to have appeared in one actual movie, Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003) ... and also appearing in that was Bill McKinney, he of the multiple appearances in Eastwood films: Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose, Bronco Billy, Any Which Way You Can, and Pink Cadillac.
Like I said before, I couldn't think of anyone that we haven't already done, or wouldn't be easy so I figured what the heck?
-
Jay appeared in One Little Indian (1973) with James Garner of Space Cowboys fame, and Pat Hingle (Sudden Impact, The Gauntlet, Hang 'Em High) was also in that film.
-
Ok...I found a link for him ages ago but didn't use him, but now I've forgotten the link, but will use him anyway! Confused...you should be! Have a go with English actor/director Stephen Fry.
-
Stephen Fry was in Gosford Park with Helen Mirren who was in Happy Birthday with Beverly D'Angelo who was in Every Which Way But Loose with Clint.
-
Chessie, it's a semi-official rule in this game to find a SINGLE link between the proposed actor and Clint. Like this: Stephen Fry was in A Handful of Dust (1988) with Anjelica Huston (Blood Work).
But ... go ahead, post the next one. 8)
-
oh man I thought I was so close, sorry. No worries. The next one is... Bette Davis. I hope she hasnt been done yet.
-
I think I may have used her before but this thread is so long now, it's hard to say without going back and looking!
Bette was in Death on the Nile with George Kennedy of The Eiger Sanction and Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
Next, try Liv Ullmann.
-
Liv (Bergman's Muse) appeared in A Bridge Too Far (1977) with Gene Hackman (Unforgiven, Absolute Power).
-
Next, another Bergman favorite ... Liv's co-star in Persona, Bibi Andersson.
-
Got it in one...Bibi starred in I Never Promised You A Rose Garden (1971) in which Reni Santoni, Chico in Dirty Harry, also starred.
-
Boy, you can see Jane's resemblance to him...anyway, howsabout Henry Fonda. We can make a link with his daugher next time ;)
-
Henry was in 12 Angry Men along with Coogan's Lee J Cobb ;D
-
Dang, you're a fast draw! ::)
-
no ones faster than Bronco Bobby..... ;)
Peter Lawford
-
;D
Ok Bobby, stop the teasing and give us gals a new one!
You cheeky get, you edited that and thought I wouldn't notice!
I'll sort you owt...wait and see!
allycat fights back!
Cue 'Eye of the Tiger' theme tune...
-
Hah! Got it with the first click of me mouse!
George Chandler starred in Dead Ringer with Pete and Every Which Way But Loose with the birthday boy :)
Don't know if you can make a link for her, but as I promised earlier, the next contender is Jane Fonda :P
-
Easy peasy.... Jane was in The Electric Horseman along with John Saxon from Joe Kidd... ;D
I had to come back....Next... Balok from Star Trek..
Clint Howard
-
I know mine was easy. I'm lulling you into a false sense of security ;)
As for yours...Clint (good name, that) starred in Tango and Cash with Marc Alaimo (another Trek link! Him being star of DS9) who was in The Dead Pool.
You'll have to do better than that ;D
Next, child star and daughter of the great John Mills, find a link for Hayley Mills
-
Young Hayley was in The Moon-Spinners (1964) with Eli "When I die they'll put THE UGLY on my tombstone" Wallach ... ;)
-
New one: the multi-talented Jean-Claude Brialy.
-
Jean-Claude Brialy was in Gang War with Mario Brega who was with Clint in GBU, For A Few Dollars More, A Fistful of Dollars
-
GREAT job, Chessie! I thought that one might take a while ... Brialy's filmography is so lengthy! (I found a different link but yours is just as good.)
Go ahead, give us a new one! :D
-
Thanks KC! ;D I'm getting better... A new one... that hasn't been done... ;)
with the up and coming release of Harry Potter how about Daniel Radcliffe
-
I got one for Danny... ;D
Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone also stars Unforgivens Richard Harris.
I tried to be flash and find a link via The tailor of Panama...but failed.

Carl Weathers

Ajay was in K-PAX with Jeff Bridges, Clint's co-star in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, yeaaah!

By the way wasn`t Pier Angeli James Dean`s girlfriend at one point ???

-
By the way wasn`t Pier Angeli James Dean`s girlfriend at one point ???
Yeah, apparently he was the only man she ever truly loved, but she wasn't allowed to marry him because he wasn't Catholic.
-
Eric Bana was in Black Hawk Down with Tom Guiry (Brendan Harris, Mystic River... of course directed only movies don't count do they?).
BUT Bana also did a voice for Finding Nemo which also had John Ratzenberger voicing as well (Chief Peck, Firefox).

Nope - just not looking in the right places! I haven't actually spent much time looking for a link, so this makes it all the more satisfying...
Bob Denver was the bartender in Back to the Beach (1987) with Hartley Silver who was also the bartender in Every Which Way But Loose.
Thank you...thankyouverramuch! ;D
-
Ok, next up, we have the fondly remembered and missed English actress Thora Hird. I'm probably makin' it far too easy for ya...but then, that's just the kinda gal I am ;)
-
;D I got Thora in Consuming Passions (the movie, that is) along with Firefox's Freddie Jones....
-
New one.... it's a goodie ;)
Lilian Gish
-
I used Lillian Gish a few pages back you know ;)
But it would be wrong to use the link I made for her, so I'll look for another in due course...
P.S. Well done for finding one for Thora so soon - dammit, I thought I'd posted a stinker!
-
This was Christopher's answer for Gish, when Ally posted her ...
Lillian Gish was in The Comedians with Richard Burton from Where Eagles Dare.
The one that occurs to me when I see the name "Lillian Gish" is The Whales of August (1987). Besides old timey scenery chewers Lillian Gish, Bette Davis and Vincent Price, the film featured North Dakota native Ann Sothern and her daughter, Tisha Sterling (Coogan's Bluff).
-
How's about Lillian's sister, Dorothy Gish?
-
Sorry guys.. memory aint what it was.... Well done KC. Tisha it was.... Does more for me than a kilo of ***** ;D
-
I got Dorothy in The Cardinal (1963) along with John Saxon from Joe Kidd.... was this your link KC... I bet you had a better one. I don't really like using Saxon...cos I don't like him much as an actor... Call me fickle but there it is... ;)
Right,,, I'm gonna relax in my favorite chair, pour myself a nice glass of vintage red, stick the Bach cello suites on the cd player..cos this one is gonna be around a long, long time.... ;D
George Brent (1)
-
Sorry love...I got it in 5 mins ;D
Brent was in Angel on the Amazon (1948) with Alberto Morin who was in Two Mules For Sister Sara as General LeClaire...
Stand by for the next one...
-
Arggggggghhhh ..!*!!?~?***!!*!.... :-[
No ones that fast............... ???
Over to you Al ;)
-
Ok, not quite sure how I got to this, but here's Tarzan himself, Lex Barker.
-
Lex was in Woman times seven along with Two Mules co star Shirley Maclaine ;D ;D
Right..... back to my cd and goblet of rouge..... ;)
Pearl Bailey
-
It didn't take me long as I only just started looking ;)
Pearl was in Carmen Jones (1954) with Roy Glenn who was a guard in Hang 'Em High!
Hmm...mine was too easy...I've tried harder for the next one but kept having to change it as I found links that were too easy...oh well, it's the weekend so we all deserve a break ;)
Next: I had the hots for him when I saw him as a kid in Robocop ;D Find a link for Peter Weller.
-
You guys are getting forgetful in your old age ... Lex Barker was used by Hemlock a few pages back and I answered that time and if I do say so myself, my answer was a tad more clever than Gant's ... ;)
Besides the Tarzan flicks for which he is probably best known in the U.S., Barker starred in a series of Euro-Westerns based on the novelistic output of the 19th century German pulp bard Karl May. In two of those, namely the original Winnetou (1963) and Winnetou und das Halbblut Apanatschi (Winnetou and the Half-Breed Apanatschi, 1966), one of his co-stars was Walter Barnes (High Plains Drifter, Bronco Billy). In another film in the series, Winnetou, Part 2 (1964), our friend the Hunchback from For a Few Dollars More, Klaus Kinski, makes an appearance.
Yes, Gant, Saxon was the link I had in mind for Dorothy Gish. Sorry to disappoint you!
-
You guys are getting forgetful in your old age ... Lex Barker was used by Hemlock a few pages back and I answered that time and if I do say so myself, my answer was a tad more clever than Gant's ... ;)Yes, Gant, Saxon was the link I had in mind for Dorothy Gish. Sorry to disappoint you!
Yeah I know KC! :-[ I realised as soon as I'd posted Lex Barker that we'd used him before, but I didn't think anyone would mind if we used him again! And Gant's used people more than once, so I thought it was my turn to engage in a little rule-bending ;)
-
You never dissapoint KC :)
Weller was in what some thought to be (some still do) an unfilmable novel.. The Naked Lunch along with Absolute Power's Judy Davis.
Right then... this one shouldn't prove too much trouble for you guys.... so first one to get it wins a quick trip round the world in the Firefox.... ;D But remember.. you must type in Russian.. ;)
Billy Walker (1)
-
Well, I can't type in Russian I'm afraid, (especially as this keyboard doesn't support all the relevant squiggles and symbols) so will French do instead? Only it's been 7 years since I last studied it so to say I'm rusty is an understatement...
Billy Walker apparaît dans le film Up Pompeii avec Michael Hordern qui jouait le role de Admiral Rolland en Where Eagles Dare.
You didn't seriously mean to use Michael Hordern again did you?! Je ne le crois pas!
(Apologies for any mistakes and for those who can't read French. Contrary to what you might think, I haven't actually been drinking tonight... ;))
-
I have..... and I must say I'm going off Michael Hordern.... Fast. ;)
Well done ally.
-
Ensuite...keeping with the French theme, as his name sounds kind of French, although he was actually born in Colorado - Jan-Michael Vincent.
-
Jan appeared as Ski Chinski along with City Heats Burt Reynolds in Hooper.....
Next up....... Phylis Coates
-
No problemo! Phyllis was in Panther Girl of the Kongo with Roy Glenn who was in one of your fave films, Hang 'Em High ;)
You were up early for a Saturday morning...was I the only one to have a lie-in? (til nearly 11.30am ;D)
Next, I hope we haven't had her before - Marlene Dietrich.
(Scratch my original one - I realised there was an obvious link! Can't seem to make 'em hard enough...)
-
Do I win?! ;D
I can't remember my link for this now...uh oh....
-
The great Dietrich was in Judgment at Nuremberg (1961) with Alan Baxter (Fenty in Paint Your Wagon). I'm sure we've had her before, if not here, then on the old Board.
-
How about "noted Shakespearean actor" (as the IMDb calls him) Eric Portman?
-
Portman was in Cairo Road along with "Eagles" man Ferdy Mayne.... I was sure I was gonna stumble across a Hordern link.. ;D
next...... Uschi Digard
sometimes credited as ...ah well, you'll see ;D ;D ;)
-
Yes, I don't think I have seen another actor with quite so many aliases! When I looked her up...I had to question your taste - she seems to have appeared in a lot of, uh, 'sexy' films, shall we say ;) My favourite title was the one called Can I Do It 'Till I Need Glasses? ;D
Sorry Gant...yet another Hang 'Em High link for you ::)
Rick Gates was in The Kentucky Fried Movie with Uschi or whatever she's called, and also the aforementioned film as Ben, Billy Joe's brother...
-
Go on...an easy one for you :)
David Duchovny...love his work in the Red Shoe films ;D
-
David Duchovny...love his work in the Red Shoe films ;D
:o (have to start wondering about your taste, Ally ;))
Anyhow, Duchovny was in Return to Me with Carroll O'Connor from Kelley's Heroes.
-
Next: Jim Brown
-
Superstar Jim Brown starred in 100 Rifles with Burt Reynolds of City Heat fame.
edit: honorable mention Jim Brown was Slammer in I'm Gonna Get U Sucker with Mr. Big, John Vernon from The Outlaw Josey Wales. But Wayans Bros. movies probably don't count ;)
-
Next: Pam Grier
-
Grier was used a couple of pages back ...
Pam Grier was in Friday Foster (1975) with Scatman Crowthers (Bronco Billy) ... or if you prefer to re-use Margaret Avery, she was in Cool Breeze (1972)with Pam. ;)
Anybody got a different link for her?
-
Sorry. I missed that one
NEXT: Rowdy Roddy Piper
-
"Rowdy," huh? Never heard of him, but he was in a film with a truly wonderful title ... Hell Comes to Frogtown (1987) ... with William Smith from Any Which Way You Can.
-
Actually, no one made a new link for Pam Grier, so here’s one:
Pam was in Ghosts of Mars with Wanda De Jesus, who starred in Blood Work.
But, I’ll leave it to KC to post the next, as she found a link for the most recent one…
-
Ooops, I knew I was forgetting something last night! :o
How about the recently departed singer and actress Marika Rökk? This one is actually pretty easy.
-
Funny – on impulse I went straight to Die Fledermaus and found that Marika starred in it with Marianne Koch, who also appeared in A Fistful of Dollars. That must surely be your easy link KC!
Next up – French actress Anouk Aimée
-
Anouk was in Justine with Josey Wales John Vernon... :)
Can't believe you soved my ultra difficult porn queen q with a Hang Em High link ally..... you'll pay for that.. ;D ;D
Righto....... Dorothy Dandridge
That should keep you all busy a while.... ;D
-
Yeah, sorry ;D And well done, you got my link exactly! :)
-
Well...for all of 3 seconds I'm afraid...you ain't gonna like this Gant me boy, but:
Dorothy was in Porgy and Bess with Roy Glenn of...yes, you've guessed it, Hang 'Em High fame ;D
Sorry, I should've found a better link for you, shouldn't I?! ;)
-
:o :o :o :o :o
-
Well done ally...... your one sharp cookie ;)
Back to you.
-
Hokay...have a go with John Ingle. No doubt you'll find it in a few minutes ;) I'm off to watch Angel that I taped off the telly last Tuesday but never got around to watching...
-
Ingle was in Batman and Robin along with Pat Hingle who was in The Gauntlet, Sudden Impact and....was there another ?
Pat Hingle was in one of my favorite episodes of the old sci fi series The Outer Limits... :)
Max "Slapsie Maxie" Rosenbloom
-
Ingle and Hingle! What a team! (http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/Lol.GIF)
Pat Hingle also appeared (as Judge Fenton) in Hang 'Em High, Gant. ;)
-
Max was in Hazard with Charles McGraw who was in…uh-oh! Hang ‘Em High. This is weird…I keep getting Hang ‘Em High links :o
If I’d realised that John Ingle was in Batman & Robin I wouldn’t have posted such an easy link…something tells me I’m much better at finding links for actors that other people have chosen than posing my own… :-[
Ok...have we had Milton Berle before? And let's not have an obvious link, this time! ;) (If there is one, that is...)
-
Hey hey..it's obvious link time :D I got Milton in won ton ton, the dog that saved the degrees game..along with Madeline Kahn from City Heat....
Also starring Bruce Dern from :o :o :o
Next up.. the gal with no belly button :o ;)
Barbara Eden
-
I said NO obvious link, boy!
You're just doing that to get me back for all those Hang 'Em High links ;)
-
Sure thang ;)
-
I've only just started looking and - Gant, I'm afraid this was too obvious!
Babs was in a film last year called Carolina, with Shirley MacLaine of Two Mules... ;)
Have we had Austrian actor Peter Illing before..?
-
There's a Michael Hordern connection! :o
-
Well, if no one else is going to answer this one ...
The easiest one is via Illing's last picture, A Man Could Get Killed (1966). That co-starred James Garner (Space Cowboys). Or you could use The Wreck of the Mary Deare (1959), which co-starred Richard Harris (Unforgiven). I suppose both of those are too easy for Ally, but at least I didn't stoop to Hordern. ;)
How about Swiss-German old timey star (and Clint's contemporary, b. Sept. 8, 1930) ... Mario Adorf?
-
Mario was in the 65 flick Major Dundee along with Unforgivens Richard Harris.. Was this who you had in mind KC ?
Next up..... the possibly type cast
Katherine Victor
-
Katherine was in Curse of the Stone Hand (1964) with Lloyd Nelson, who soon gave up bit parts in B movies to become a script supervisor by trade, in which capacity he served Clint long and faithfully. In return, he had cameos in a number of Eastwood pictures, a bartender in Every Which Way But Loose, a guard in Escape from Alcatraz, the bank teller in Pale Rider ... and several others.
-
Gant, if you or Ally wants to post another, be my guest! I gotta get my beauty sleep ... ;)
-
Well... it seems only fitting that our next degrees link is legendary composer/singer
Ray Charles
-
Ray Charles (R.I.P. :'( ) played the Bus Driver (! :o ) in the Leslie Nielsen spoof Spy Hard (1996). "Next stop, Sunset Boulevard! I guess it's Sunset Boulevard." ;D
Also appearing in that was Marcia Gay Harden, who appeared with Clint in Space Cowboys and under Clint's direction in Mystic River.
-
Oprah Winfrey. Shouldn't be hard ... ;)

Oprah was in the Color Purple featuring Danny Glover who was also an inmate in Alcatraz.
-
What about...

Next up..... Joel Fluellen ;)

-
No problemo...I went with Mr Baseball, in which Tom stars with Dennis Haysbert, who also appeared in Absolute Power.
Next: See how fast you can make a link for Charles King (II) ;D
-
Well, the first one I found for King Charles II ... sorry, Charles King (II) ... is via Nell Gwynn ... scratch that, I mean via Ben Johnson, who was in Bordertown Gun Fighters (1943) with King and in Hang 'Em High with Clint.
-
How about George Sanders ... who played King Charles II in Forever Amber (1947)?
-
I'll never forget watching George Sanders as a kid battling those wierd looking kids in village of the dammed... ;D
George was in Good Times along with Sonny and Cher ???

How about English actor John Thaw
Do you guys get Inspector Morse over there...?
-
Good poser, Gant! I never really watched Inspector Morse, myself...
Thaw was in the film Sweeney 2 (1978) with Nigel Hawthorne, who was in Firefox.
I originally posted Rock Hudson as the next one but then realised he did star with Clint even though it was in the film Never Say Goodbye, before Clint made it big. So, just in case, I'll post William Campbell (I) instead, though it's probably easy to make a link for him :)
Boy, would you believe...was going to use Angie Dickinson and found out she was used twice before in this thread!
-
William Capbell featured in Pretty Maids all in a Row starring Rock Hudson but also featuring Telly Savalas (Kelly's) ;D
-
Next:
Sonny Bono
and yes, I am aware that you can hardly describe him as an actor! ;)
-
Sonny was in Airplane II with Rip Torn of City Heat.
How about Ellen Pollock?
-
Yeah, how ABOUT Ellen Pollock ... whoever she is ... ???
Anyway, she was "Haggard's Maid" in something called The Gypsy and the Gentleman (Joseph Losey, 1958). Also appearing in that was Patrick McGoohan (Escape from Alcatraz).
-
Next: Ruth Roman.
-
Well done to KC, that Ellen Pollock one was seriously hard!
-
Is Ruth Roman so hard? :o
I think I found at least two obvious one steppers for her before I posted her ... ???
-
Goodness, never thought I'd find one... Ruth was with Walter Barnes in Day of the Animals, who was also Tank in Every Which Way But Loose and High Plains Drifter.
Next - James Caviezel, this one isn't too tough.
-
Jim wan The Count of Monte Cristo with the late, great Richard Harris. Unforgiven. :)
-
Next Captain Mainwaring himself:
Arthur Lowe
-
Heyyy...there's a Michael Hordern connection! ;D
Good ol' Arthur was in Theatre of Blood (1973) with Mike from Where Eagles Dare.
Guess KC didn't like Ellen Pollock...she may not have been a big star but doesn't mean she didn't shine as brightly ;) Plus it's harder to find difficult links for more 'famous' people :) I never got around to looking up Ruth Roman...
How about another Doctor (Who)...my favourite, Jon Pertwee (father of the actor Sean Pertwee). I always wanted him to be my grandad...
-
There was no need to stoop to Michael Hordorn for Arthur Lowe, Ally ... he was in This Sporting Life with Richard (Unforgiven) Harris! ;)
-
Easy peasy...... ;)
Pertwee (my fave Dr Who) was in The House That Dripped Blood along with "Eagles" co star..the gorgeous Ingrid Pitt.... ;D
Next..... Richard Widmark
-
Yay...he's your fave too! ;D
Sorry, KC and Gant, but Michael Hordern had to be used there...
Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern Michael Hordern...
With me first click...Widmark wuz in Coma with the luvverly Ms. Genevieve Bujold of Tightrope ;)
Whoops had to edit there...I excited the thread too much and made it too wide with so many Michael Horderns ;D
-
Oh yeah, Mr Rip Torn was in that film too :)
Next up, I choose one half of a great Anglo-American comedy duo: Stan Laurel. Have fun!
-
Oh yeah, Mr Rip Torn was in that film too :)
Next up, I choose one half of a great Anglo-American comedy duo: Stan Laurel. Have fun!
Posted by me, and answered by Gant on May 25! :o
OK, we had Oliver Hardy ... what about Stan Laurel?
This was quite tough.....
I found our old friend Hank Worden (Bronco Billy) in one of Stan and Ollies lesser eforts The Bullfighters... Was this your link KC..?
-
yeah didn't we just do Stan Laurel not all that long ago... hmmm...
-
Gadzooks, curse your amazing powers of perception, KC! ;)
And I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for those pesky kids...
Ok, scratch that, and let's have The Who legend Roger Daltrey :)
-
Good ole Rog ;D I used to live just round the corner from him.. no kiddin'. He looked about 5ft tall ;D
He was in Lightening Jack along with The Gauntlet and Sudden Impact's Pat Hingle...
Have we had Hugh Jackman yet
-
He was in Lightening Jack along with The Gauntlet and Sudden Impact's Pat Hingle...
And Hang 'Em High's ... ;)
-
Of course.... ;D
C'mon then. Any ideas for the Burt Reynolds look a like link. ;D
-
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, Gant m'boy, but, way back in April 2003, Brendan used Hugh Jackson (oh, the humanity!) - now who would've thought it?! ;) And the link found was as follows:
Started by Brendan, Message by scootyes89
hugh jackman was in kAte and Leopold with Bradley Whitford..who appeared in "a perferct world"
So - do you want to pose another one, or...? ;D
(This is hard - the longer this thread gets, the more we find we've used actors before. Does anyone think we should start from scratch? Even at the expense of losing half my posts...;))
-
It is gettin' harder... how about another for Jackman ?
-
Come on you lot. It's not that hard there are thousands if not hundreds of thousands of links out there. If your getting really stuck why not do chain links so you have to go through two actors instead of one to get to Clint. Or get to an altogether different actor using Clint as a middle chain link. Lets have some imagination. ;)
-
Sheesh, bigdai! ;)
I do usually try and find more complicated links for Clint, often going through at least two different actors, but then someone comes along and finds just one link for them ::) So, it's not for want of trying!
Hugh Jackman was in Someone Like You with Ashley Judd, who was in Eye of the Beholder with Genevieve Bujold of Tightrope. That's a more long-winded one for you.
If someone else wants to do a one-link connection, then go ahead...it's time for the footie now so I have to go :)
-
Hugh Jackman's current release, Van Helsing, features Alun Armstrong (White Hunter, Black Heart).
-
Don't think we've had Lucille Ball ...
-
I gotta ask a question.....
Does Clint's cameo in Breezy count ?
-
No.
Come on, Gant ... Lucille Ball ... how hard can that be? ;)
-
Can I try this one if Gant`s too busy ::)
Lucille Ball was in Lucky Luciano(`74)with Gian Maria Volontè(Fistfull Of Dollars,FAFDM).
If that`s good enough for you KC next...TIPPI HEDREN ???
-
That's GREAT, Hemlock! Better than the one I found for Lucy!
I happen to know there's a pretty obscure link for Tippi in her most famous movie ... because I'm a Hitch expert in my spare time. ;)
Can someone else find another one in another film? :D
-
Hemlock ... Lucille Ball isn't listed in the cast of Lucky Luciano in the IMDb ... ???
-
Hemlock ... Lucille Ball isn't listed in the cast of Lucky Luciano in the IMDb ... ???
Well try www.allmovie.com .
-
You're right, she's there! No character name, though. Hmmm ... has anyone seen this film? Can you tell us what part Lucy plays? ???
-
I've seen Lucky Luciano, and for the life of me can't recall Lucille Ball in the film. ???
She's on the cast here too though:
http://entertainment.msn.com/movies/movie.aspx?m=481513&mp=c
Strange. Maybe Holden would remember her. ???
-
Strange. Maybe Holden would remember her. ???
I was thinking the same thing! :D I wouldn't be surprised if he had it ... though, according to the IMDb, it's not on DVD ...
-
I used to have it... but it was pretty awful, so I got rid of it.
-
I just checked Lucille Ball's credits on BaselineFT.com .... the for-pay database (I have some free searches thanks to my AFI membership) that describes its people database as follows:
BaselineFT’s Artists Database encompasses credits for over 1.5 million above-the-line and below-the-line film and television professionals. These credits date back to the 1950s and beyond, and are regarded throughout the entertainment industry as the most thorough and accurate Film and TV credit archive in existence
She is not credited with an appearance in Lucky Luciano there ...
Matt, are you sure you don't still have that tape around the house somewhere? ???
-
I'm sure. Sorry. :(
-
Ok.If Lucky Luciano is too vague.How about these:
Lucille Ball was in A Guide For The Married Man(`67)with Inger Stevens(Hang`Em High)and in Critic`s Choice(`62) she was with Rip Torn(City Heat) and also in Yours,Mine And Ours(`68) she was with Tim Matheson(Magnum Force).
And now...TIPPI HEDREN ::)
-
That's more like it! ;)
-
Tippi was in Citizen Ruth with Burt Reynolds who was with Clint in City Heat...
Next: Sam Neill, this one isnt too hard...
-
Even better, Chessie ... Citizen Ruth starred none other than Laura Dern (A Perfect World). No need to drag City Heat into this. ;)
Does anyone know the link for Tippi in The Birds? :D
EDIT: We turned the page again, so I'd better repeat Chessie's (the above is just for fun):
Tippi was in Citizen Ruth with Burt Reynolds who was with Clint in City Heat...
Next: Sam Neill, this one isnt too hard...
-
Sam Neill is in films like Wimbledon(2004)with Bernard Hill(True Crime),in Children Of The Revolution(`96)with Judy Davis(Absolute Power)and in The Hunt For Red October(`90)with Scott Glenn(also Absolute Power).
Next FERNANDO REY ???This should be easy.
-
Fernando was in Moon over Parador alongside Raul Julia and Sonia Braga who both starred with Clint in his sadly oft neglected gem... The Rookie. ;)
Have we had Dean Martin yet ? :)
-
Fernando was in Moon over Parador alongside Raul Julia and Sonia Braga who both starred with Clint in his sadly oft neglected gem... The Rookie. ;)
Have we had Dean Martin yet ? :)
Fernando Rey was also the main villain in The French Connection films .You know the one with Genen Hackman(Unforgiven&Absolute Power) ;)
And yes I think we have already done Dean Martin,this is getting difficult,isn`t it ???.He was in films like Some Came Running and Cannonbaal Run II(and probably many more)with Shirley MacLaine(Two Mules For Sister Sara).
Ok how about Michael Keaton ::)Have done hin already too ???
-
Michael Keaton was in Batman Returns with Pat Hingle who was in Hang 'Em High, Sudden Impact, etc. with Clint.
Next: Tyler Hoechlin
-
At last.. that was a tough one..
Tyler was in Road to Perdition along with Michael Brockman who played Moustache Officer in Any Which Way You Can...
Next up
Richard Pryor
-
he was in that comedy of all comdies :-\
silverstreak with patrick mcgoohan - escape from alcatraz
ray walston - and there is a 1 degree
-
Well Walston was in Paint Your Wagon with Clint.
Next: Michael Douglas
-
Okay what else was Ray Walston in... because if its the same guy who was in the Sting and Damn Yankees, then he was also in Paint Your Wagon... ???
-
Okay I found another link too, probably the one you were going for Vik. ;)Walston was in the Sting with Dimitra Arliss who was also in Firefox. ;D
Next: Michael Douglas
-
Next: Michael Douglas
Michael Douglas was in Wonder Boys with Rip Torn(City Heat)and in Disclosure with Donald Sutherland(Kelly`s Heroes & Spacecowboys).
Next Malcolm McDowell...if we haven`t done him already ???
-
Malcolm starred in A CLockwork Orange featuring a young Warren Clarke who was in Firefox. :)
-
Next:
Carrie Snodgress
-
Bigdai, Carrie Snodgress co-starred with Eastwood in Pale Rider. ???
-
:-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[
It's a good point, well made.
I totally forgot. I'm a bit busy at the moment KC so you can do another for me while I hide away in embarrassement. ;)
-
OK, bigdai ... how about a nice easy one (if we've done him before, let's do him again ....)
The late, great Marlon Brando!
-
Hey, one I can do without looking at the IMDb...
Marlon Brando was Jor-El in Superman (1978)
(http://superman.ws/fos/themovie/images/jor-el.gif)
with Gene Hackman, who was in Absolute Power and Unforgiven.
-
Here's the next... hope he hasn't been done already:
John Turturro
-
I got John in the excellent The Big Lebowski along with Thunderbolt and Lightfoots Jeff Bridges..
Next up
Sharon Tate
-
Ms. Tate was in Rosemary's Baby with Ruth Gordon who was in Every Which Way But Loose and Any Which Way You Can.
Next... how about Steven Tyler?
-
That was super fast Matt.... ;D
Ok I found your Beatles connection.. Steven was in Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band along with our old friend Hank Worden from Bronco Billy..... ;D
Tommy Kirk
-
You got it, Gant! And you were fast, too! I didn't think ole Worden's name would be that recognizable.
-
Here's the answer to your latest... Tommy Kirk was in Catalina Caper with one of Clint's oldest friends, Robert Donner, who was the Preacher in High Plains Drifter.
Have we done Yul Brynner yet?
-
pat hingle - invitation to a gunfighter
next walter marsh
-
Vik, Walter Marsh played the Barber in Unforgiven.
What is it with these "zero degrees of separation" posts lately? ??? :o
Oh and ... back on Yul Brynner: he was in no fewer than three pictures with Eli "Tuco" Wallach, of which the best known is The Magnificent Seven (1960). (The other two are Poppies Are Also Flowers (1966) and Romance of a Horsethief (1971). ;) )
-
So are we getting a link or what? ??? ;)
-
Ok. Nobody has posted a new name so i'll start it off again.
What about:
Gary Oldman
I don't know if we've done him before but who cares.
-
There's probably a lot of connections with Gary Oldham, but I'm going with JFK because I knew that one without looking it up (and it's very rare I can solve one of these without searching).
Gary Oldham was Lee Harvey Oswald in JFK, along with several other Eastwood co-stars, most notably Kevin Costner of A Perfect World. Two "Space Cowboys" also co-starred... Tommy Lee Jones, who gave a memorable performance as Clay Shaw and Donald Sutherland as "X" (And of course Sutherland was also in Kelly's Heroes.)
Kevin Bacon of Mystic River was also in JFK... but since he never actually appeared on screen with Clint, I guess the original "Degrees of Separation" man doesn't count here.
Next...
Bill Murray
-
Matt, dear, I think you meant Gary Oldman. But we'll let you off considering you don't often play this game ;D
The wonderful Mr Murray was in Wild Things with Carrie Snodgress who was of course in Pale Rider with Clint. Kevin Bacon was also in that film.
Next: I'm in a Hitchcock mood, so try one of his ice blondes, Madeleine Carroll. And if we've had her before, then find another link! :P
-
Oh, I think he meant Gary Old-Ham, all right! ;)
-
C'mon guys...Madeleine Carroll, any takers?
-
Ally, you are looking for a one stepper, right? Wanna give us a hint? This has been around for a LONG time now! :o
-
Actually, I have a shocking confession to make... :o
This is the first time I've selected somebody without checking out the connection first, (other people do it, but I never normally do!) but I figured that as she's been in a Hitchcock film, we can usually make the connection from there. Put it down to my own laziness! Of course, this would have to be the one time that nobody can get it and needs a clue! ::)
In that case, if it really is too hard, I'll try and find a one-stepper myself and give you all a clue, and if I can't, then two-steppers will do!
*phew*
-
Thanks, Ally ... glad it wasn't just me. Two-steppers are easy but if you find there's a one-stepper ... let us know and drop a hint!
-
.. and I was ready to hang up my crown as king of "Seperations" over this one... :o
-
C'mon guys...Madeleine Carroll, any takers?
It looks like there`s none,ally"the threadkiller"cat ;D
-
Hmm.. can it be linked to a documentary???
-
I have a few one-steppers, but they're to actors who were in Clint's early films, which we don't usually count in these games. Maybe we should make an exception in this case, since no one has come up with a "legitimate" one stepper in all this time.
Madeleine Carroll was in An Innocent Affair (1948) with Bess Flowers, who was in The First Traveling Saleslady (she's uncredited in both films). Better, Carroll was in My Favorite Blonde (1942) with Charles Cane, who was in Revenge of the Creature, Erville Alderson, who was in Francis in the Navy, and Edgar Dearing, who was in Tarantula. All three actors are credited in My Favorite Blonde, though only Cane is credited (as Police Captain) in the relevant Eastwood film ... which in that case is more than you can say for Clint! :o
I wonder if that would satisfy Ally? ???
-
The link via the The First Traveling Saleslady was the one I thought of, and will do here! Sorry for killing the thread guys...you're up at long last, KC! (phew)
-
This one is MUCH easier ... the recently departed, unforgettable Fay Wray.
(And no, King Kong was never in a movie with Clyde ... ;) )
-
Well if it aint my ole pal John Saxon in Summer Love with Fay. The creepy looking Saxon was of course in Joe Kidd..
How about
Viggo Mortensen
-
Viggo was in Lord of the Rings: Return of the King with Bernard Hill, who was in True Crime.
Hmmm.. how about Carolyn Adams
-
Who in the world is Carolyn Adams? ???
-
Who in the world is Carolyn Adams? ???
Sorry.. I meant Carolyn Jones.
(Got the actress and her character confused. Carolyn Jones, played Morticia Addams on The Addams Family.)
-
I'm glad you clarified that, because there are five Carolyn Joneses in the IMDb.
THIS Carolyn Jones (1929-1983), to take the most obvious connection (to me, anyway) was in How the West Was Won (1962) with Eli (Tuco) Wallach and Lee J. Cobb of Coogan's Bluff fame. 8)
How about Woody Allen? Don't think we've had him yet. This is an easy one stepper! ;)
-
I got Woody Allen in Radio Days (1987) with Jeff Daniels (Blood Work).
NEXT: Evan Rachel Wood (or have I used her before?)
-
NEXT: Evan Rachel Wood (or have I used her before?)
Anyone? Come on this is a real easy one!!
-
OK, ok, Evan Rachel Wood, whoever she is, was in The Missing (2003) with Tommy Lee (Space Cowboys) Jones.
How about Diane Keaton?
-
OK, ok, Evan Rachel Wood, whoever she is...
She's a young, very talented actress that's who she is. ;)
Anyways, Diane Keaton was in The Godfather and The Godfather Part II with Robert (Joe Kidd) Duvall.
NEXT: Greg Kinnear
-
Greg was in As Good As It Get's with Jack Nicholson, who was in Terms Of Endearment with Jeff Daniels, who was in Blood Work.
There's a one stepper out there tempest. ;)
-
Kinnear was in Nurse Betty with Morgan Freeman who was in Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby.
Darn it just beat me!
-
I know but the future release of it ;D
-
And I will stick with: Alanis Morissette.
Anyone got a link?
-
I have a two stepper: Alanis Morrisette was in DeLovely with Ashley Judd who was High Crimes and Kiss the Girls with Morgan "Unforgiven" Freeman.
If no one posts a one stepper between now and later tonight, I'll post another person. :)
-
NEXT: Donnie Walhberg
-
Well you could through Alanis Morsette, but I didn't.
Carlin was in Scary Movie 3 with Charlie Sheen who was in the Rookie with Clint. Yes shameful I know.
Anyways. New one
Hugh Jackman
-
I am going to give this a try. This is my first time so bare with me. Thanks. ::)
Paul Reubens was in Buffy the Vampire Slayer with Kristy Swason who was in The Chase with Charlie Sheen who was in The Rookie with Clint in 1990.
NEXT: RENEE ZELLWEGER
-
Your answer is correct, blonde, but in this game we like to try to connect the actor to Clint in one step, if possible ... like this: Paul Reubens was in Batman Returns (1992) with Pat Hingle, who was in three Eastwood films (Hang 'Em High, The Gauntlet, and Sudden Impact).
But that was very good for your first try. ;)
RENEE ZELLWEGER ... anyone?
-
Brandon Lee was in The Crow with Anna Levine who was in Unforgiven with Clint. 8)
NEXT: VAL KILMER
-
Henry Rollins was in The New guy with Geoffrey Lewis who was in Bronco Billy, High Plains Drifter, etc. etc. etc.
NEXT: WILL SMITH
-
Rutger Hauer was in Salem's Lot with Donald Sutherland who was in Space Cowboys with Clint.
NEXT: EDWARD NORTON
-
Rowdy Roddy Piper was in The Bad Pack with Robert Davi who was in City Heat with Clint Eastwood.
NEXT: Marlee Matlin
-
Bowie was in The Hunger along with Dan Hedaya who appeared in Clint's Tightrope.
Bowie was also in Absolute Beginners with Eddie Tuder-Pole who had a small part in White Hunter Black Heart..
Then theres Bowies appearance in Into The Night that also featured Don Siegel who acted with Clint in Play Misty For Me..
Also we got Bowie in Last Temptation of Christ with High Plains Drifter/Honkytonk Mans Verna Bloom..
-
Next up..
Bela Lugosi
-
I think we've had Bela before ... at least, I know the connection without having to look it up. Bela was in the immortal Plan 9 from Outer Space (Ed Wood, 1959)with Gregory Woolcott, who was in four movies with Clint: Joe Kidd, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction, and Every Which Way But Loose.
I gotta turn in. Gant, why don't you post another one? Nice to have you back in the game. 8)
-
This thread has reached 100 pages! :o
-
We made a 100...wow, think of the hours of research... ;D
OK.. I know it's a bit naughty.... but can I have poor old Bela again. Discounting Gregory Woolcott who I'd plain forgotten about... ;)
-
Hey Gant ... I finally got it! Bela was in Night Monster (1942) with Irene Harvey, who was in Play Misty for Me!
Shoot, now I have to think of a new one ... :o
-
OK ... don't know whether we've had him but ... let's go with Boris Karloff!
-
Toshiro Mifune was in Shawdow of the Wolf with Donald Sutherland who was in Space Cowboys with CE.
::)
-
Alrighty sir,
Here is my favorite actress.
How about Audrey Hepburn.
-
Audrey Hepburn (who's one of my faves as well) was in Robin and Marian with Richard Harris, from Unforgiven.
-
Wow, Christopher you were fast. You are of course correct. ;D
The way I was thinking was Audrey was in The Children's Hour with Shirley MacLaine who was in Two Mules for Sister Sara.
You're up!
-
Next up: Wesley Snipes
-
Wesley Snipes was in U.S. Marshals with Tommy Lee Jones who was in Space Cowboys with CE.
-
Wow, that was fast! ;)
-
Blonde, you're getting very sharp at this game! Congratulations!
-
Heather Graham was in Anger Management with Harry Dean Stanton (Kelly's Heroes).
NEXT: MacGyver himself, Richard Dean Anderson. 8)
-
Richard Dean Anderson appears to be almost exclusively a television actor. He was in three films ... the IMDb has him as uncredited in Young Doctors in Love (1982). Also appearing in that one was Michael McKean (True Crime).
-
Post another one, Brendan ... I'm too depressed. :'(
-
Post another one, Brendan ... I'm too depressed. :'(
I think I may know why...
NEXT: I can't think of anyone so I went to the IMDb and just randomly clicked on someone who was born today: Matthew Settle. ???
-
Enrique Lucero was with Richard Harris and Geoffrey Lewis in the movie "The Return of A Man Called Horse" (1970)
Richard Harris was English Bob in "Unforgiven"
Geoffrey Lewis has been in several of CE movies
-
Next one:
Charles Starrett
:)
-
Charles was in The Kid From Broken Gun with Eddie Parker who had an uncredited role in Tarantula.
Next: Traci Lords
I see I've missed several rounds in this game, but just for the record: We like to try to play this one without using Clint's "early" films in which he didn't have a starring or co-starring role. You could have used Cyclone Fury ... Starrett was in that with Merle Travis ... who was in Honkytonk Man.
-
Aileen was in Annie with Bernadette Peters (Pink Cadillac).
Next: The legendary HARRY REEMS.
This is a one stepper.
Harry Reems is legendary only to connoisseurs of pornography. I really don't think this was a good choice for this game.
-
Reems was in The Cartier Affair (1984) with Telly Savalas, who was in Kelly's Heroes. It was made for television, and so shouldn't really be used here either.
I would prefer it if we could avoid using actors who perforned mainly in the "adult" genre. There are some quite young children who post here, you know.
-
OK, post another one, then, and let's move on with the game!
-
Billy Bob was in Daddy and Them with Laura Dern (A Perfect World).
NEXT: Harry Townes
-
Here's one I know without looking it up anywhere. Billy Bob was stunning in The Apostle (1997), written and directed by, and starring, Robert Duvall (Joe Kidd).
A fast check of his credits in the IMDb reminds me that he was also in the Eastwood-produced The Stars Fell on Henrietta (1995), starring the same Duvall ... and Frances Fisher (Pink Cadillac, Unforgiven, True Crime), and baby Franny Fisher-Eastwood (also seen in True Crime).
-
Ooops, Brendan beat me to it. Good, because I really didn't want to think up a new one now, anyway. ;)
-
Brendan, keep the game moving! ;D
-
NEXT: Harry Townes
He was in Santee(`73)with John Larch(Play Misty For Me,Dirty Harry)
Next:Steven Berkoff ::)
-
Wow seems like the trivia sections been pretty dead lately.
Steven Berkoff was in Flynn with John Savage who was in the Deer Hunter with Meryl Streep who was in Bridges with Clint.
I hope that works for you Hemlock!
Next - Samantha Morton
-
Wow seems like the trivia sections been pretty dead lately.
Wow, I just realized I had a dream where someone revived the "A new dialogue game" trivia thread. How weird is that? :o ::)
-
Wow, I just realized I had a dream where someone revived the "A new dialogue game" trivia thread. How weird is that? :o ::)
Not a bad idea Matt, wink wink nudge nudge. ;) ::)
-
About time somebody revived THIS thread ... :o
Samantha Morton was in Jesus' Son (1999) with Dennis (Hang 'Em High) Hopper. She's also in the forthcoming The Libertine, a biopic about John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester (1647-1680), played by Johnny Depp ... :o Co-starring as none other than King Charles II is John Malkovich (In the Line of Fire).
Next: the late, lamented Janet Leigh. :'(
-
Next: the late, lamented Janet Leigh. :'(
She was in Boardwalk(`79)with Ruth Gordon(Any Which&Every Which-movies) and in Carpenter`s The Fog(`79)with Hal Holbrook(Magnum Force).
Next WALTER PIDGEON ???
-
Walter Pidgeon had a small role as Grayson's butler in "Won Ton Ton, The Dog Who Saved Hollywood" (1976) also starring Madeline Kahn and she was in "City Heat" (1984)
He was also in "Warning Shot" (1979) with Carroll O'Connor and he was in "Kelly's Heroes" (1970)
-
Let's go with:
"Wild" Bill Elliott (III)
-
Let's go with:
"Wild" Bill Elliott (III)
Wild Bill was in Chain Of Evidence with Ross Elliot(Kelly`s Heroes and also in Tarantula!!)
If that was the Wild Bill Elliot that you were after...the next is JEAN-LOUIS TRINTIGNANT(if we have not done him already ???)
-
Jean-Louis Trintignant was in Under Fire (1983) with Ed Harris (Absolute Power) and Gene Hackman (Absolute Power and Unforgiven)
-
Yay! Someone finally answered this one! (I was going to a couple of days ago but then my computer crashed and I never got back to it.)
Post another, Xichado!
-
I wanted to say Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle but I cannot find a one stepper with CE. :(
Come across this guy, though his name was interesting ;D and, also, found a few one steppers
Xan das Bolas
-
umm the name gave it away
fistfull of dollars - Per un pugno di dollari
jose calvo was with xan das bolas in all'ombra di una colt
cliff bernhardt
-
Cliff Bernhardt was in Bloodsport 2 with Nils Allen Stewart who appeared in Space Cowboys.
-
cool stuff chris
-
Next up: Magda Szubanski
-
Hmmm.. ok..here's at least two connections.
Clint was in Space Cowboys with James Cromwell, Cromwell was in Babe: Pig in the City with Magda Szubanski
OR
Clint was in Bloodwork with Tina Lifford, who was in Babe (1995) with Madge Szubanski.
OK.. if that was correct.. how about..
Majel Barrett
-
OK.. if that was correct.. how about..
Majel Barrett
Barret was in The Dominoe Principle(`77)with Gene Hackman(Unforgiven,Absolute Power)and Eli Wallach(GBU).
Next:one of the greatest actor of our time: JET LI :)
By the way I got this Dominoe Principle on DVD and was surprised how dull film it is.Considering that the film got talents like Stanley Kramer(the director),Hackman,Wallach,Richard Widmark and so on ???Maybe I just don`t get this paranoia theme that was going on in the 70`s ???
Well to be honest I bought the DVD just because it was cheap and it got Gene Hackman and the finnish title was Viikatemiehet which means loosely translated The Reaper Men ;D
Another btw Cromwell was also in Pink Cadillac with Eastwood.
So..JET LI ???
-
Hmm.. Jet Li.. one of my favorites..
How about this link....
Clint was in Unforgiven with Larry Joshua who was in Cradle 2 the Grave with Jet Li.
or
Jet Li was in Lethal Weapon 4 with Rick Hoffman who was in Bloodwork with Clint.
ok.. how about Lyle Waggoner?

Two words, Gant ... Death Game (Peter S. Traynor, 1977). Starring Sondra Locke ... sounds like a real horror show. Seymour (Coogan's Bluff) Cassel is in it too.

I got it, Gant ... and I shoulda known this one from the get go. Billy Curtis, Clint's pint-sized sidekick in High Plains Drifter, appeared as a "City Father" in The Wizard of Oz alongside the teenaged Judy.
New one: the ever-radiant Ingrid Bergman.

Ingrid Bergman was in Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey (1994) with Gregory Peck, who was in Wild Bill: Hollywood Maverick (1996) with Clint Eastwood.

Hi Kendall!I´m not sure if documentary about the director William Wellman(Wild Bill:Hollywood Maverick`95)is considered as an Eastwood film ???
Ingrid Bergman was in The Yellow Rolls-Royce(`64)with Shirley Maclaine(Two Mules For Sister Sara).
But Bela Lugosi is fine by me so let`s go ahead with that :)
-
Lugosi apeared (albiet briefly) in Plan 9 From Outer Space alongside Gregory Walcott who worked with Clint in Joe Kidd, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction and Every Which Way But Loose.
-
New one... American rocker
Jerry Lee Lewis
-
Have we had this one?
Kevin Bacon was in Mystic River, (directed by Clint ) and was in The Wild River with Meryl Streep who was in Bridges of Madison County with and directed by Clint. :)
-
Lin, this is supposed to be a game like the others: Someone posts a name and someone else "solves" that one, and then posts a new one. So, you should "solve" the one Gant posted, Jerry Lee Lewis, before posting a new one ... and then you just post the name, Kevin Bacon. Leave it to the next player to find out the answer.
Also, we're just counting the films Clint acted in in this thread. So, if you posted "Kevin Bacon," someone could answer "Bacon was in The River Wild with Meryl Streep who was in The Bridges of Madison County with Clint." But Mystic River doesn't "count."
Read through a couple of pages of this thread and you'll see how things are supposed to go. (http://forums.nyyfans.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)

As Gant mentioned, we don't usually count Eastwood's (or other actors') appearances in documentaries in this game. Also, Bergman (who died in 1982) wasn't really "in" the documentary Theremin (1994), and neither was Gregory Peck. We don't usually count archival clips of actors and actresses. According to the IMDb, in Theremin, both Bergman and Peck are seen in a clip from Hitchcock's Spellbound (1945), in which the two co-starred. So, if you were going to use Peck, you should have gone directly to Spellbound. However, since you can't use Peck's appearance in Wild Bill: Hollywood Maverick either ... this really wasn't the best of answers. (http://forums.nyyfans.com/images/smilies/new/wtf.gif) (http://forums.nyyfans.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Sorry Hemlock! With you and Gant practically the only "old timers" playing here ... I sometimes think a post is by one of you, when it's by the other one. (And you're both named after Eastwood characters in "spy" movies, too.) (http://forums.nyyfans.com/images/smilies/wink.gif) Thanks for finding the Yellow Rolls Royce I was looking for!
OK, this question is for Gant: Jerry Lee Lewis doesn't seem to have any actual "acting" credits, not on the IMDb anyway. Are you looking for a movie where he maybe appeared as himself ... maybe along with another singer who also appeared as himself, there and in an Eastwood movie? (http://forums.nyyfans.com/images/smilies/confused.gif)

Jerry Lee Lewis played himself in American Hot Wax with Hamilton Camp who was the Garage Attendant in City Heat with Clint Eastwood and Burt Reynolds :)
-
Hey, very good, tmw3nyc! (What does all that stand for, anyway? ??? ) Even better ... Jo Ann Harris (the minx, Carol, in The Beguiled) is in American Hot Wax, too.
I was thinking of Jamboree (1957), which features appearances by many singers, each as "himself," including Lewis and Fats Domino (Any Which Way You Can). But yours is better. Post another!

New one
Joseph Cotten
-
I imagine there must be lots of connections for Joseph Cotten (one of my favorite old-timey actors), but here's one I found that I like ... Cotten played "Baron Otto von Kleist" in something called Gli orrori del castello di Norimberga (Mario Bava, 1972). Also appearing was Rada Rassimov ... "Maria," the "fresh young whore in the territory" in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
According to the IMDb, the film was called Baron Blood in the US, and is also known as Chamber of Tortures, The Blood Baron, The Thirst of Baron Blood and The Torture Chamber of Baron Blood :o
New one: Cotten's co-star in one of Hitchcock's greatest films, Shadow of a Doubt ... Teresa Wright. (I know she was IN a film that Clint appeared in, Escapade in Japan (1957), but that's an "incunable" ... it doesn't count. ;) )

Actually I`ve no idea who Casey Adams is.I just picked the name from aalmovie.com site ;D
Btw this is what they say in that site about Case Adams:
Adams was born Max Showalter, the name he used in 1949 and after 1963. Following stage and Broadway work, he began his career as a light character actor in late '40s, often appearing as a comic support, "regular-guy" buddy, and reporter or newscaster. He composed the title song and music for Vicki (1953), in which he also appeared; Adams occasionally wrote music for other films as well. — All Movie Guide
So it looks like you`re right even though that wasn`t the movie that I was thinking about.
So it`s your turn AGAIN Gant ;)

Elvis ,Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart is used two times...if I remeber correctly.This is really long thread.
I was worried that Yves Montand has been used already so I looked this whole thread through and noticed these little things...again I got nothing better to do in my nightshift ;D
Btw we haven`t done Montand earlier but the film/actor that I´m after is used once ;)
In one point I answerd when somebody asked about Ben Stiller and few pages after I asked about him myself ;D ;D
-
Montand was in an excellent, existential thriller by Jean-Pierre Melville that I saw a year or so ago: Le cercle rouge. He played Jansen, an ex-police sharpshooter now far gone in alcoholism (when we first see him, he is experiencing a spectacular case of the DTs) who pulls himself together for "one last job," helping Alain Delon, as a thief just sprung from the clink, and Gian-Maria Volonté (A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, as a killer who's escaped from custody on a train, in an elaborate jewel heist scheme.

Yes he was ...according to www.allmovie.com .
It`s A Big Country was his second film Father Of The Bride(`50)being his first .

Holden, were you looking for something more challenging than Ms. Astor's last screen appearance, in Hush... Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964)? Also appearing in that were Bruce Dern (Hang 'Em High) and George Kennedy (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction).
-
If we're looking for the obscure, how about this.
Clint Eastwood was in The First Traveling Saleslady with Jeffrey Sayre was in Youngblood Hawke with Mary Astor.
-
That's a good one, Gino, though we don't usually use the pre-Dollars films in these games! :)
Well, Holden never objected to my original reply so I guess it must have been good enough. And we need a new one here.
How about the author of the English-language dialogue for The Good, the Bad and the Ugly ... Mickey Knox? (As an actor, of course.)

Also appearing in King's Row was Betty Field, so memorable in Coogan's Bluff as Ringerman's mom.
-
You got it KC... of course Hemlock is also spot on with the killers...

Gant, I'm not having much luck placing Trevor with an Eastwoodite in a made-for-the-cinema film, but he was in the 1985 TV remake of Du Maurier's Jamaica Inn (may well be better than Hitchcock's version, which wasn't his best work) along with Patrick McGoohan (Escape from Alcatraz).
Will that do?
You'd think someone in that cast of Troy would've been in an Eastwood film ... :-\
-
How about Trevor Eve was in Possession ( 2002 ) with Toby Stephens who was in Space Cowboys playing a young Frank Corvin?

It's changing.
It got up to 57° on Saturday, with lots and lots of rain. Then it plummeted ... to 27° by Sunday morning with a bit of snow and just enough ice on the roads to make a Sunday PM run a bit of an ordeal ... then it fell to 16° or so this morning, but it rose into the 30s today and is supposed to be in the 50s again by midweek ... with lots and lots of rain.
Until this weekend, it had been nearly a month since we'd had much sub-freezing weather and even longer since we'd had snow.

I hate to break the news, Richard, but for the purposes of this game we've kind of declared Eastwood's pre-starring roles "off limits." ;)
Leslie Howard's most famous Hollywood role was as Ashley Wilkes in Gone with the Wind ... far down the cast list of that blockbuster is Alberto Morin, who played Rene Picard (uncredited). And Morin was General LeClaire in Two Mules for Sister Sara.
Next: Dwight Frye, looking for a two-step connection to a film with Clint in a starring role. Or better ... Gant's elusive one-stepper. ;)
-
Next: Dwight Frye... Gant's elusive one-stepper. ;)
He was in Son Of Frankenstein (`39) with Carole Cook(The Gauntlet)
And now a bit easier...Lena Olin
-
Hemlock, I don't think that's the same person ... according to the IMDb, the first credited role for Caroline Frances Cooke (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0177386/) was in Rose of San Juan (1913) ... assuming she was at least a teenager then, she'd have been pushing 80 by the time The Gauntlet was filmed in 1976. Son of Frankenstein (1939) is, in fact, her last credited role.
The earliest date the IMDb has a credit for Carole Cooke (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0176946/), on the other hand, is 1959 ... playing "herself" in an episode of The Desilu Revue.
Carole Cook played the talkative waitress in The Gauntlet ... she looks to be forty-ish.
-
Lena Olin was in Romeo Is Bleeding with James Cromwell who was in Space Cowboys.
I do not see a one stepper with Dwight Frye.
-
Up next Denver Pyle.
I have not givin up on the one stepper to Dwight Frye.
-
Ooops
Under The Ghost Of Frankenstein (1942) Dwyre is listed in the cast.. archive footage (uncredited) But it does not list this film in his filmography... Sorry gang.. Thats where you need to be lookin' for the one stepper.
Sorry folks... :-[
-
"Archive footage" usually means the person is seen in a snippet playing in the background, like the bit of Tarantula that's on the TV in one scene in The Rookie ... though it could be in a flashback, dream sequence, etc. At any rate, the person in question did not work in the movie under discussion, so it shouldn't be counted for the purposes of this game.
Gant was looking for a Dwight Frye connection via William Smith (Any Which Way You Can), who allegedly played a "village boy" in The Ghost of Frankenstein in 1942, when he was eight. It's his second role listed in the IMDb; he wasn't credited for it. His mini-bio in the same place (supplied by one [email protected]) says, "From 1942, when he was eight, through young adulthood, Bill appeared in many movies as an extra (uncredited)."
For a Frye two-stepper, look to The Black Camel (1931), Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943), or several other pictures in which Frye appeared with Bela Lugosi. As followers of Tim Burton's or Johnny Depp's career will recall (from Ed Wood) ... Lugosi was in Wood's Plan 9 from Outer Space, starring Gregory Walcott (Joe Kidd, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction, Every Which Way But Loose).
-
Guess I was tryin' to be a little too clever there.. :-[
Funny thing I've used that Smith/Ghost of Frankenstein link many times but people have alweays found other one steppers..
Well done on the 2 stepper KC. :)

I (finally) got George 'Gabby' Hayes in the Roy Rogers flick "The Carson City Kid" along with Bob Steele who was also in Hang Em High..

Gillian Anderson was also excellent in The House Of Mirth where she starred alongside Absolute Power's Laura Linney

-
I had a one stepper for Louis Gossett Jr last night and was about to post it when my old computer mouse quit working. That was bad timing. I had to buy a new one today.
-
How about Ava Gardner.
-
Technically, we still have mattyd's Tara Crespo outstanding ... and Gant would be entitled to post one also for topping mattyd's two stepper for Ellen Barkin (currently starring in The Big Divorce ... ) with a one stepper. :)

Back with a new one shortly. :)

Kevin Costner (A Perfect World) was also in that one. I forgot who he played, though. ;)
;D I have not sen that movie since it came out in the theatres but I think I remember most of the cast speaking in a British accent but Costner did not which I thought was rather irritating on his part.
-
Yup, and Mel Brooks made fun of him in his spoof Robin Hood: Men in Tights ... when he had Cary Elwes as Robin Hood deliver this bit of repartee ...
Prince John: And why would the people listen to you?
Robin Hood: Because, unlike some other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent.

Next:David Spade

Hmmm Hemlock ... according to the IMDb, The American Success Company (1980) featured Bridges and someone called Belinda Bauer, but not Michelle Bauer.
Also according to the IMDb, Michelle Bauer's first screen appearance came in 1981, when she "began her film career in X-rated hardcore movies as Pia Snow, including the classic 'Cafe Flesh,' before moving into mainstream movies." :o
-
I can assure everyone that the Degree of seperation is a mainstream film from the late 80's. She is one of the great scream queens of the horror genre from the 80's -90's.
-
OK, Richard, that made it easier. The film is Demonwarp (1988), and Michelle starred in it with George Kennedy (Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction). :)
Next: Let's stick with Hemlock's David Spade.

Hmmm Hemlock ... according to the IMDb, The American Success Company (1980) featured Bridges and someone called Belinda Bauer, but not Michelle Bauer.

In any case, Gant, go ahead and post the next one! :)
-
okie dokie...
Eminem
-
Gant, are you counting anything other than The Wash and 8 Mile among Mr. Eminem's illustrious filmography as an actor? Because as far as I can see that's all he's done in the way of movies for the cinema. And he was uncredited in The Wash.
-
8 mile's good. :)

-
That is a tough one KC. The closest degree I found was a Rawhide episode but I know that television does not count. I will look some more.
-
Clue: The link is a German actor who appeared in a single film with Clint. ;)
-
Elke Haltaufderheide was in Die Vertreibung Aus Dem Paradies with Wolfgang Lukschy who was in A Fistful Of Dollars.

(http://img385.imageshack.us/img385/7377/10m1gm.jpg)
-
The only connection I could find was Perry was in a 12 minute short "Backseat Detour" with Riki Lindhome from Million Dollar Baby,is that the one you're looking for KC? ???
Somehow I think shorts don't count.
-
That was the one I meant ... I hadn't noticed it was a short.
(By the way, I never heard of Perry Smith, I just liked her name! :D )

New one coming soon ...
-
We've already done Lino Ventura, so how about his co-star in Melville's great French Resistance thriller, Armée des ombres ... Jean-Pierre Cassel?

Next: Shemp Howard
-
CvW, we prefer not to use the films that Eastwood appeared in before A Fistful of Dollars, which was his first starring role. Can you find a better one-stepper?
-
No Problem.
I did check page one of this thread before I answered tgy's post and didn't see that rule about pre-Fistful films.
I think it's a good rule anyway. Before I come up with a new first stepper why don't we let someone answer tgy's post correctly. I'll give it some more thought myself.
Incidentally, if anyone is interested in how Shemp Howard could possibly be connected to Clint, Shemp was in a film called 'Hellzapoppin' in 1941 that also featured Billy Curtis whom we all know as Mortcai in 'High Plains Drifter.'
You didn't really think I was going to connect Clint to a Three Stooges Short did you?
-
Hey CvW I didn't know that rule either! It makes this one a BIT harder!! Ummm.... ???
-
Well, there IS one for Lou Costello ... 'cause I found it. Can anyone else? ???
-
Lou Costello was in 'Comin Round The Mountain' with Robert Easton who played "Atwell" in ' Paint Your Wagon.'
Now you all know how I spent MY weekend.
I'll be back in a bit. I'm starting to look like Ben Rumson.
-
Wow ... so there are TWO for Lou Costello! :o ;)
-
I don't have to guess that one too do I???!!! :o
I've seen enough Abbott and Costello cast lists to last me for quite some time, thank-you very much. Which coincidentally brings me to this well groomed fellow:
Next: The Wolfman- Lon Chaney Jr.
He met Lou Costello too. Should've eaten 'im!!
Oh, and am I hallucinating or does the title of this thread look different than last week?
-
Just for the record, the other Lou Costello one-stepper I had was via Abbott and Costello Meet the Keystone Kops (1955). Marjorie Bennett (Coogan's Bluff) had a small part in that, uncredited, according to the IMDb. ;)
Oh, and am I hallucinating or does the title of this thread look different than last week?
I don't think the thread title has changed since the thread was started ... back in December '02. What is the difference you think you may be ... "hallucinating"? ;)
-
I see what I did. Last week I was reading posts on pages 6 and 7, where the subject on the individual posts read "degrees of seperation." Guess I got distracted or forgot where I left off when I started reading again. I thought either someone had corrected it or I was imagining I actually saw it. Man, I need a vacation! Also I think I better spend less time on this board or pretty soon Mrs. van Wallach is going to want a sepAration! :o
-
Well, it's nice to have someone around here who actually cares about spelling! ;)
-
Wow ... so there are TWO for Lou Costello! :o ;)
Must be three,because the two mentioned wasn't the one I knew of. :)

Okay, that was a gooder CvW, but I think I got it!
Paul Douglas was in 'The Leather Saint' with Baynes Barron who was in 'Ambush at Cimarron Pass'. Is that the one you were thinking of? Are we a loud to use that old of movie?
If so Next... Brooke Shields.
-
Well, we're not supposed to use films made prior to A Fistful Of Dollars. I know this because I made that same mistake the first time I ever played this game ;). So, I actually did have another movie in mind. :)
-
There IS a one-stepper for Paul Douglas using a "mainstream" Eastwood film. ;)
-
Yep. I watched it last week! Well, actually my wife was watching it. I just noticed a very young somebody else was in it too. ;)
-
Thanks CvW!! Hopefully this is correct...Paul Douglas was in "We're Not Married" with Lee Marvin (although he was uncredited) who was in Paint Your Wagon. Is this the one you had in mind??
-
Yes, you are correct. He's listed as "Pinky" in the New York Times All Movie Guide filmography, which is the one I use for this game.
Don't reckon I'd ever call Lee "Pinky" to his face though...
Nice job. So it's Brooke Shields then?
