Degrees of Separation

[KC]

Next: Debbie Reynolds.

[Gant]

I got Debbie in Oliver Stones 1993 Heaven and earth with future Space Cowboy Tommy Lee Jones....


       STEVEN BERKOFF

[Hemlock]

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  

[KC]

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.  

[KC]

Here's another one that should be pretty easy ... the late great Cary Grant.

[Hemlock]

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  

[KC]

This is the West, Hemlock. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.  

[D'Ambrosia]

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?

[KC]

D'Amb, I think Hemlock already answered the Grant one with Charade ... yours is a good one, though.

Anybody got George Hamilton?

[Gant]

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....


Next..... the delectable Patsy Kensit

[KC]

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.

[KC]

Next ... speaking of moppets ... Shirley Temple.

[Gant]

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

[KC]

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

[Gant]

Your good you......

That is a much stronger link than my one.. Yeah Mandy was what we call.. a good time gal....

Your up....

[KC]

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!    

[KC]

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?

[Hemlock]

Wow KC it could be that you killed this thread
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

[Brendan]

Dan Aykroyd was in Conehaeds (1993) with Michael "True Crime" McKean.

NEXT: Clark Gable

[Gant]

Gable starred alongside Eli "Tuco" Wallach in 61's The Misfits.

New one comin' soon.....
