OK, this might be stretching it a bit, and there's probably a more legitimate chain, but I'm going to throw it out there anyway!Danno wrote:... and what's the link between Humphrey Bogart and Larry (play it again, Sam)Manetti?
Humphrey Bogart was in Casablanca with Ingrid Bergman
Ingrid Bergman's daughter is Isabella Rossellini
Isabella Rossellini was in Monte Wash with Tom Selleck
........you know the rest

Wow, I never knew that! Normally, we're looking for on-screen connections, but since I learned something new, I say it's good Louise. Your turn to pick something.Louise wrote:Ingrid Bergman's daughter is Isabella Rossellini
I'd say we should try to avoid documentaries, mainly because they may not have even worked together. For example, a doc could show a series of clips illustrating gun violence in cinema, but that doesn't mean Clint Eastwood and Arnold Schwarzenegger actually worked together.ConchRepublican wrote:What's the ruling on documentaries? I was waffling myself but figured I'd follow the "better to beg forgiveness than ask permission" principle.

And I've just realized that I made a typo in "Walsh". I really mustn't try to type before I've had my second cup of coffee of the morning!
OK, can anyone link another one of my favourite actors, Andreas Katsulas, with Kathleen Lloyd?

Now how about the Little Tramp, Charlie Chaplin to the Magnum, PI series?

Jonathan Higgins starred with Ted Dansen in Thanks of a Grateful Nation
Ted Dansen worked with John Hillerman in the Magnum episode Don't Say Goodbye
Can you hear the BOOM?



Based on that I say connect the following: Ricardo Montalban to Stuart Margolin (Rod Crysler, ep. By Its Cover)

KHHAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNN!
Jimmy (Beam me up Scotty) Doohan was on Magnum, P.I.
That's probably too lazy though...

While I don't think they shared screen time (Doohan and Montalban) I say you have that one sir! Bonus points for for using a Canadian actor (my game, my rules!).Danno wrote:KHHAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNN!

How about Reef Monkey's Charlie Chaplain?

Charlie Chaplan was in A Countess From Hong Kong with Marlon BrandoHow about Reef Monkey's Charlie Chaplain?
Marlon Brando was in Christopher Columbus: The Discovery with Tom Selleck!
If I can pass go and collect $200, how about linking Michael Caine to John Hillerman?

Let's try this:
Michael Caine was in Cars II with Edie McLurg
Edie McLurg was in the TV series Valerie with John Hillerman
Although here's another question . . . do animated movies count? I know, I'm a trouble maker . . .
If this connection passes muster try this next connection: Delroy Lindo and Roger E. Mosley

While not Styles, I think they would (That's how I got Mako with TMNT and that was a voice role as well.)
I'll have to think of Delroy Lindo
