One of My Hidden Talents

I've never been one to toot my own horn (I let others do that for me), but occasionally I'll break that pattern. I am unbeatable at the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game. If you don't know what that is, it is where to you attempt to link anyone in Hollywood - living or deceased - to movie (or TV) roles starring Kevin Bacon within six steps. To throw out an example, Viggo Mortensen appeared in the 1998 remake of Psycho with Rance Howard, who in turn starred in Frost/Nixon with our hero, Kevin Bacon. Easy. Two steps. During long car trips I've been known to enthrall my fellow passengers for hours with my knowledge of all things Bacon in playing this game, even without the aid of online tools such as the IMDB.

To help you in your own personal quest in training yourself to be a Kevin Bacon master, here's a list Kevin Bacon movies for you to study. Then one day you may be able to take on me for the ultimate Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon face-off.

I have a friend who can provide a challenge for you. He once linked Justin Guarini and Kevin Bacon, at my request.

How 'bout:
Jonathan Passow was in Hildalgo with Viggo Mortensen, who was in the remake of Psycho mentioned up above...

Passow, where you ever an extra in a Kevin Bacon movie?
