Michael Douglas who was in Romancing The Stone with Kathleen Turner - just 3 degrees of Separation connecting Steamboat Willie to Basic Instinct is pretty wild - lol - DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsSam NeillLaura DernJeff GoldblumA pragmatic paleontologist touring an almost complete theme park on an island in Central America is tasked with protecting a couple of kids after a power failure causes the park's cloned dinosaurs to run loose.Watched 1/6/24

Jeff Goldblum who was in Jurassic Park with Wayne Knight - gives new meaning to the 'What were you going to write about last weekend?' question at the end of the film - lol - DirectorCharles CrichtonJohn CleeseStarsJohn CleeseJamie Lee CurtisKevin KlineIn London, four very different people team up on a jewel heist, then try to double-cross one another for the loot, complicated by their efforts to fool a very proper barrister.Watched 1/8/24
Kevin Kline who was in The Big Chill with Jeff Goldblum - the polar opposite characters played by Kevin Kline in these two movies show how much fun it must be being an actor. - DirectorTerry GilliamStarsSean ConneryShelley DuvallJohn CleeseA young boy accidentally joins a band of time travelling dwarves, as they jump from era to era looking for treasure to steal.1/9/2024
John Cleese who was in A Fish Called Wanda with Kevin Kline - as with A Fish Called Wanda, Time Bandits was a Quasi Monty Python movie that wasn't an Official Python movie (Cleese and Michael Palin in the movie directed by Terry Gilliam) - DirectorBrian De PalmaStarsKevin CostnerSean ConneryRobert De NiroDuring Prohibition, Treasury agent Eliot Ness sets out to stop ruthless Chicago gangster Al Capone, and assembles a small, incorruptible team to help him.1/10/24
Sean Connery who was in Time Bandits with John Cleese - Sean Connery is best known for being the first James Bond, but I honestly liked his non Bond movies better and The Untouchables is my favorite Connery film. - DirectorRon SheltonStarsKevin CostnerSusan SarandonTim RobbinsA fan who has an affair with one minor-league baseball player each season meets an up-and-coming pitcher and the experienced catcher assigned to him.1/11/24
Kevin Costner who was in The Untouchables with Sean Connery - another movie with a great speech about Baseball although for a bit different than Al Capone's in the Untouchables - lol - DirectorRidley ScottStarsSusan SarandonGeena DavisHarvey KeitelTwo best friends set out on an adventure, but it soon turns around to a terrifying escape from being hunted by the police, as these two women escape for the crimes they committed.1/12/24
Susan Sarandon who was in Bull Durham with Kevin Costner- one of the all-time best buddy movies, that it was two women rather than to Men still seems to shock people for some reason. - DirectorPenny MarshallStarsTom HanksGeena DavisLori PettyTwo sisters join the first female professional baseball league and struggle to help it succeed amid their own growing rivalry.1/15/24
Geena Davis who was in Thelma & Louise with Susan Sarandon - one of the neat things about watching films in 6 Degrees style is discovering other connection movies have with each other - Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon were both in classic Baseball movies that bookended Thelma & Louise - but Thelma was in the better one. - DirectorRon HowardStarsTom HanksBill PaxtonKevin BaconNASA must devise a strategy to return Apollo 13 to Earth safely after the spacecraft undergoes massive internal damage putting the lives of the three astronauts on board in jeopardy.1/17/24
Tom Hanks who was in A League of Their Own with Geena Davis - Naturally the 13th movie I watched should be the true life Space classic Apollo 13, nice it worked out that way plus I had to get Kevin Bacon in this, and it only took 13 degrees of separation to connect him to Mickey Mouse in Steamboat Willie. - DirectorHerbert RossStarsKevin BaconLori SingerJohn LithgowA city teenager moves to a small town where rock music and dancing have been banned, and his rebellious spirit shakes up the populace.1/18/24
Kevin Bacon who was in Apollo 13 with Tom Hanks - For the man who was at the center of the Oracle of Kevin Bacon I had to go with his signature movie Footloose, 40 years old this year but just as pertinent and fun as it was in 1984. - DirectorJoel SchumacherStarsJason PatricCorey HaimDianne WiestAfter moving to a new town, two brothers discover that the area is a haven for vampires.1/19/24
Dianne Wiest who was in Footloose with Kevin Bacon - My Favorite Vampire movie of all time, perfect blend of Horror and Humor plus a great soundtrack make it a quintessential 80's movie. - DirectorRob ReinerStarsWil WheatonRiver PhoenixCorey FeldmanA writer recounts a childhood journey with his friends to find the body of a missing boy.1/20/24
Kiefer Sutherland who was in The Lost Boys with Dianna Wiest - Another Classic 80's movie and like The Lost Boys Kiefer was the Villain, I have always suspected that Ace was Jack Bauer's origin story. - DirectorRichard DonnerStarsSean AstinJosh BrolinJeff CohenA group of young misfits called The Goonies discover an ancient map and set out on an adventure to find a legendary pirate's long-lost treasure.1/21/24
Corey Feldman who was in Stand By Me with Kiefer Sutherland - 'Goonies Never Say Die' completing the trilogy of Corey Feldman classic 80's movies, like Stand By Me The Goonies was set in Oregon and it's always movie the first movie people think of when they mention Oregon movies. - DirectorEthan CoenJoel CoenStarsTommy Lee JonesJavier BardemJosh BrolinViolence and mayhem ensue after a hunter stumbles upon the aftermath of a drug deal gone wrong and over two million dollars in cash near the Rio Grande.1/22/24
Josh Brolin who was in The Goonies with Corey Feldman - still amazed Josh Brolin was in the Goonies, he made a unrecognizable transition from Teen to Adult actor, No Country For Old Men won the best Picture Oscar, but I still think it has one of the most anticlimactic endings to a movie ever. - DirectorBarry SonnenfeldStarsTommy Lee JonesWill SmithLinda FiorentinoJames, an NYC cop, is hired by Agent K of a secret government agency that monitors extraterrestrial life on Earth. Together, they must recover an item that has been stolen by an intergalactic villain.1/23/24
Tommy Lee Jones who was in No Country For Old Men with Josh Brolin - one of the issues I had with No Country for Old Men was how weak and pathetic the Sheriff played by Tommy Lee Jones was 'Oh, there's nothing I can do so I'll just end the movie whining about everything on some guy's porch' - Agent K would have smacked down Anton in a New York minute. - DirectorRoland EmmerichStarsWill SmithBill PullmanJeff GoldblumThe aliens are coming and their goal is to invade and destroy Earth. Fighting superior technology, mankind's best weapon is the will to survive.1/24/24
Will Smith who was in Men In Black with Tommy Lee Jones - Will smith again battling rowdy Aliens in one of my favorite movies of all time - so many great characters, moments and lines and a Top shelf cast to bring it all to life, highly entertaining and it never gets old. - DirectorMel BrooksStarsMel BrooksJohn CandyRick MoranisA star-pilot for hire and his trusty sidekick must come to the rescue of a princess and save Planet Druidia from the clutches of the evil Spaceballs.1/25/24
Bill Pullman who was in Independence Day with Will Smith - just a brilliant, hysterical and timeless parody of Star Wars (with a little Star Trek thrown in) by the legendary National treasure Mel Brooks and it's a little ironic that after playing Lonestar Bill Pullman went on to play the President as did Harrison Ford after playing Han Solo in the Star Wars movies. - DirectorAlan JohnsonStarsMel BrooksAnne BancroftRonny GrahamAt the onset of WW2, a Polish actor's family and the Polish Resistance help the troupe of a theatre escape Poland and the invading Nazis.1/26/24
Mel Brooks who was in Spaceballs with Bill Pullman - Mel Brooks is a National Treasure and this remake of Jack Benny's To Be or Not To Be is one of his brightest gems, and also shows that sometimes a remake can surpass the original. just Mel's opening duet of Sweet Georgia Brown in Polish with his wife Anne Bancroft makes this film a classic. - DirectorMike NicholsStarsDustin HoffmanAnne BancroftKatharine RossA disillusioned college graduate finds himself torn between his older lover and her daughter.1/27/24
Anne Bancroft who was in To Be or Not to Be - Anne Bancroft's signature role as the amorous older Woman Mrs. Robinson out to seduce young Benjamin played by Dustin Hoffman in the role that made him a star - a 60's classic that is shades of grey on who was right or wrong, but I could certainly see Mrs. Robinson's side of it, why did Ben think it was Ok to date her daughter?? - DirectorSydney PollackStarsDustin HoffmanJessica LangeTeri GarrMichael Dorsey, an unsuccessful actor, disguises himself as a woman in order to get a role on a trashy hospital soap.1/28/24
Dustin Hoffman who was in The Graduate with Anne Bancroft - Lots of places I could have gone with Dustin Hoffman, I have seen 24 of his films, but I had to go with my favorite Tootsie because it has such a wonderful ensemble cast and also because it is still just as fabulous, fresh and funny today as it was when I first watched it 40 years ago. - DirectorColin HigginsStarsJane FondaLily TomlinDolly PartonThree female employees of a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot find a way to turn the tables on him.1/29/24
Dabney Coleman who was in Tootsie with Dustin Hoffman - Dabney Coleman is one of my Favorite character actors and this movie gave him his start as the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot Mr. Hart in this comedy classic about women in the workplace, very funny and prophetic about how Womens' roles in our society were changing.
