I don't know who Amy Acker is, but luckily, IMDb is forgiving of that -

Amy Acker was in Catch Me if You Can with Ellen Pompeo who was Jake's love interest in Moonlight Mile.  Jake=BBM.


Next: Daniel Day Lewis, who said he never met Heath, but was sure he would have liked him.

Hey, this is one I know from the top of my head:

DDL with Leonardo Di Caprio in Gangs of New York
LDC with Matt Damon in Departed
Damon with Heath in Brothers Grimm
Heath=BBM


Next:
Gert Fröbe

Wow, we let this game languish for a year?  Turns out if we'd done Kevin Bacon a year ago, it might not have been this easy:


I just discovered this game yesterday when I noticed a "guest" looking at it in the Who's Online function.  Sometimes I remember or discover topics anew that way.  I'd never played this one before.  It's a cool idea!

Sorry to stray a bit off-topic...


Now back to Gert Fröbe...

Took a bit, but I got it!

Gert Fröbe was in Goldfinger with Sean Connery back in 1964.  Sean Connery was in Entrapment with Catherine Zeta-Jones 35 years later.  Catherine Zeta-Jones was in the crappy Ocean's Twelve with Matt Damon, and of course Matt Damon was Heath's brother in The Brothers Grimm.  Heath=BBM.

Gert Fröbe as Goldfinger, Sean Connery as THE James Bond, and Harold Sakata as Oddjob

And the fantastic Goldfinger theme, sung by Shirley Bassey

Well done! :)
I didn't check myself, just knew that Fröbe was in Goldfinger and that this must be the movie to begin with, cause it leads to Hollywood.


Next is still Marlon Brando.

Interestingly, Marlon Brando 1972 starred in a movie named "Candy" :)
Now that's only one degree of seperation. Almost ;)


Marlon Brando with Al Pacino in The Godfather.
Al Pacino with Matt Damon in Ocean's Thirteen.
Matt Damon with Heath in Brothers Grimm.
Heath=BBM


Will post the next one soon.
