6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon

I'm gathering that is the game. Someone gives you a person. Next person does a full connection to Kevin Bacon, and then said person provides the next individual to connect.

The six degrees of ouch game is much simpler. So simple, in fact, that it never caught on. It goes like this-

Name any person
Name any woman with any association to the person named above
Say "ouch had her".

If the person named in step #1 is a woman, it's even simpler! :tongue_sm
 
By the way, Liza Minnelli's Bacon Number is just 2, courtesy of Sarah Jessica Parker (Sex and the City 2, Footloose).

Full disclosure: I got this from an available algorithm, which takes the sport out of it.
It's obviously a good deal harder if its closed-Internet, just your own movie knowledge.
 
1. Errol Flynn
2. Ava Gardner (The Sun Also Rises)
3. John Huston (the Bible In The Beginning)
4. Jack Nicholson (Chinatown)
5. Kevin Bacon (A Few Good Men)
Can anybody do it less than 5?

Take it away @emwolf
well, you beat me on the degrees, but I'll send out one which should be deceptively easy:
Roger Daltrey
 
Roger Daltrey is the lead singer of The Who, but has done some decent on-screen work as well.
1. Daltrey was in the movie Tommy with Jack Nicholson,
2. Nicholson was in A Few Good Men with Kevin (there's also a song Cousin Kevin from Tommy, for an odd coincidence).
Anybody's game
 
Ed Wynn> Dick Van Dyke (Mary Poppins)>Ben Stiller (Night at the Museum)>Tom Cruise (Tropic Thunder)>Kevin Bacon (A Few Good Men)4

Lana Turner
 

TexLaw

Fussy Evil Genius
Lana Turner > Lorne Green (Peyton Place) > Earthquake (George Kennedy) > Cool Hand Luke (Dennis Hopper) > Jack Nicholson (Easy Rider) > Kevin Bacon (A Few Good Men)

That was something of the long way around, but a fun one.

How about one of my very favorites, now: Katherine Hepburn.
 
1. Katharine Hepburn to John Wayne (Rooster Cogburn and the Lady)
2. John Wayne to Robert Duvall (True Grit)
3. Robert Duvall to Tom Cruise (Jack Reacher)
4. Tom Cruise to Bacon (A Few Good Men)

How about Vincent Price?
