Six Degrees of Separation Blogathon

Nostra over at My Filmviews has kicked off a really interesting Blogathon called the Six Degrees of Separation. The idea is that the Blogger before you links two actors/actresses/directors to each other in six steps, and then passes it on to someone else.

John at Hitchcock's World successfully linked Lindsay Lohan to Sidney Poitier, and has passed it to me to link Sidney Poitier to Groucho Marx. This is going to difficult as I really don't know Groucho Marx well at all, but let's give this a go!



Okay, okay, this was a tough one but I think I just about did it. Here we go...

1 - Sidney Poitier starred in Shoot to Kill (1988) alongside Tom Berenger.

2 - Tom Berenger was in Breaking Point (2009), and so was Armand Assante.

3 - Armand Assante had an epic argument in Judge Dredd (1995) with Sylvester Stallone.

4 - Sylvester Stallone was the star of Oscar (1991), which also featured Don Ameche.

5 - Don Ameche and Carmen Miranda were the leads in the musical Greenwich Village (1944).

6 - Finally, Carmen Miranda featured in Copacabana (1947), and the lead actor just happened to be the one and only Groucho Marx.

Phew! I can't believe I actually did it! That was a real challenge, I actually found it easier to work backwards so there's a hint for anyone still trying to complete their challenge.

As per the rules, I now need to nominate another blogger and pass on a challenge to them, starting with my ending point. So, Brittani at Rambling Film, I choose you! Your challenge is to link Groucho Marx to Leonardo DiCaprio. Good luck!
