Remember the Kevin Bacon game where you link any actor to him with 4 movies or less! Well lets try it with Tom Hanks!

For example: Gwenneth Paltrow

Tom Hanks was in That thing you do with Lv Tyler-
who was in Armageddon with Ben Affleck-
who was in Shakespear in Love with Gwenneth Paltrow!

OK lets see if we can find a link to Kevin Kline (hoping that he isn't in a movie with him)

I just want to point out that Eruve Nandiriel has just listed 4 of the funniest movies of all time. [Smile]

Is four movies a requirement? When I play with my friends, we try to go for the shortest route possible. But then again, my friends are nuts.

I'll choose:

Grace Kelly

edited to add: I agree, Beren. Especially since I did it in 3 [Razz] even though you still won on that one with 2 (the Sizemore connection)...

LOL, I didn't even realize there was a site.
I would have connected Elijah Wood to Liv Tyler, in LOTR, and Tom Hanks to Liv Tyler in That Thing You Do.
