"6 Degrees of Brokeback Mt."

Heath and Michelle = BBM

A double - good job, Chrissi! 

John Hawkes is in the upcoming "S. Darko," the sequel to "Donnie Darko"
"Donnie Darko" = JG = BBM

Next: John Hawkes. He's an easy one, but in his filmography I stumbled over a movie title which evoked BBM for me. Can you guess which?

 "A Slipping-Down Life" ?   


Next:  Gene Kelly

[Penthesilea]

A double - good job, Chrissi! 

John Hawkes is in the upcoming "S. Darko," the sequel to "Donnie Darko"
"Donnie Darko" = JG = BBM

Now that's what I call a shortcut . But fine with me.
JH was in From Dusk Till Dawn with George Clooney (and we know the rest, therefore it was easy).

"A Slipping-Down Life" ?   

Nope, that's not what I thought of. He was in a movie named "Blue Streak".


Next is still Gene Kelly

[Ellemeno]

Gene Kelly was in Anchors Aweigh (1945) with Jerry the Mouse, uncredited voice by Sara Berner, who was also the uncredited voice of the telephone operator in North by Northwest (1959), which Martin Landau, who was in Ed Wood (1994) with Johnny Depp, who will be playing the same part as Heath in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009).  Heath :: BBM

Next: Madeline Kahn

[mariez]

Now that's what I call a shortcut . But fine with me.

I thought that's what you meant by "easy one!"   

Oh, great job on Gene Kelly, Elle - interesting trivia and a cool youtube!


Madeline Kahn was in "Paper Moon" with (a much younger) Randy Quaid = BBM!


Next:  Chazz Palminteri

[Lynne]

Chazz Palminteri with Dermot Mulroney in Jolene
Dermot Mulroney with John Cusack in Must Love Dogs
John Cusack with Billy Bob Thornton in Pushing Tin
Billy Bob Thornton with Heath in Monster's Ball

Heath :: BBM

Next:  Keanu Reeves (as seen in a preview this morning before The Dark Knight with Elle and LauraGigs!  )

[Ellemeno]

Lynne and I are at my house together, cheerfully BetterMosting on our separate computers.  Here's my 6 degrees of Chazz Palminteri.  It doesn't count, but I thought it would be fun to both be looking at the same time:  Chazz Palminteri is going to be in the upcoming Cat Tale (2008) with David Cross (II) who played Allen Ginsberg in I'm Not There. (2007) which was Heath's 3rd to last movie.  Heath :: BBM

But, to do the next one:

Keanu Reeves is going to be in The Private Lives of Pippa Lee (2009) with Winona Ryder who was in Little Women (1994) with Christian Bale, who was in The Dark Knight (2008) with Heath.  Also in The Private Lives of Pippa Lee (2009) is Monica Bellucci who was in The Brothers Grimm (2005) with Heath.  Either way, Heath :: BBM.

Next: Bruno Kirby

[Lynne]

Yeah!  I know this one without IMDB (after I looked up who he was...knew of him, but not his name!)

Bruno Kirby in City Slickers with Jake G.

Jake :: BBM

Next:  Adam Baldwin

[Ellemeno]

According to IMDb trivia, Adam Baldwin is good friends with Jamie Lee Curtis, Jake's godmother.  Jake :: BBM.    But that's not via movies, BRB with another answer.


Adam Baldwin was in Le Divorce (2003) with both Naomi Watts, who was in Ned Kelly (2003) with Heath, and Kate Hudson (I), who was in The Four Feathers (2002) with Heath.  Heath :: BBM :: Heath.

Next:  George Chakiris

[Lynne]

Whew!

George Chakiris with Darcy DeMoss in Pale Blood
Darcy DeMoss with Jason Priestley in Made in Brooklyn
Jason Priestley with Beth Grant in Hot Tamale
Beth Grant with Jake Gyllenhaal in Donnie Darko  (I love Beth Grant!)

and Jake :: BBM

Next:  Humphrey Bogart

[Ellemeno]

Good work, Lynne!   That turned out to be tougher than I expected.

Humphrey Bogart was in The Harder They Fall (1956) with Rod Steiger who was in The Hollywood Sign (2001) with Whoopi Goldberg who was in The Player (1992) with Peter Gallagher (I) who sang the Brokeback parody song at the 2006 Independent Spirit Awards.  An unorthodox resolution, but fun.
