Five degrees of Kevin Bacon
Each row of five films links from a suggested film to a Kevin Bacon film, using a common actor (or director) between each pair of films. The first three rows start with films I’ve seen recently. The trick is, due to how Letterboxd lists work, that each film can only be mentioned once. I’ll start each line and take suggestions for completing it…
