welcome to the thread. if I may offer a suggestion, to avoid confusion it's better to quote or cut and paste the post that you're hooking onto, like so:

Two comments ... (1) I have never heard of Pork Chop Hill before janey's post, but it works fine; and (2) I'd just say that that was what Dianne Wiest looked like when younger.

Emma Chambers was in Notting Hill with Julia Roberts - newbiebabe
Julia Roberts was in Erin Brockovich with Albert Finney - janeyl
Albert Finney was in Big Fish with Ewan McGregor - mrtnmoon
Ewan McGregor was in Moulin Rouge with Nicole Kidman - RUlookingup
Nicole Kidman was in Practical Magic with Dianne Wiest - BradBigBrain
Dianne Wiest was in Edward Scissorhands with Winona Ryder - msmaggie
Winona Ryder was in The Crucible with Paul Scofield - sweetgypsy
Paul Scofield was in A Man For All Seasons with Robert Shaw - janeyl
Robert Shaw was in Jaws with Murray Hamilton - mrtnmoon
Murray Hamilton was in No Time for Sergeants with Andy Griffith - newbiebabe
Andy Griffith was in A Face in the Crowd with Patricia Neal - BradBigBrain
Patricia Neal was in Breakfast at Tiffany's with George Peppard - msmaggie
George Peppard was in Pork Chop Hill with Gregory Peck - janeyl
Gregory Peck was in To Kill a Mockingbird with Collin Wilcox Paxton - mrtnmoon


A reminder of the VERY confusing rules:

*I will post an initial picture, a string of pictures in the middle, and then a concluding picture. The first person has to use the initial picture, and one of the pictures in the middle string, and "connect" them when they appear in the same movie. The next person will take the second performer listed in the previous response, and select one of the remaining pictures in the middle string, and find a film those have in common. This continues until there is only one picture in the middle string, which then has to be "connected" to the end picture.
*There may be more than one correct way of navigating through the set of pictures. However, not every choice will let you get all the way through the list. If you think that is the case, and you find yourself stuck, you may back up as far back in the response list as you like and restart the list at that point.
*A person can only post to a particular set once every 24 hours; that is, you may post again 24 hours after your last post on the same set. The clock also restarts with every new set of pictures.
*Only posts in the string that finally makes it to the end will count for points for those that posted on that set.
*The strings will get longer with each correct set of answers (up to a point).
*One last note, these are all film connections ... not television.

Only current path being worked:

Pat Morita was in The Karate Kid with Elisabeth Shue
Elisabeth Shue was in Hollow Man with Kevin Bacon

I welcome NawtyShutterBug to the thread, and hope you enjoy it! To everyone else, I think I will be back Thursday night, for sure on Friday, but maggie also has available set #10 if it is needed.

And finally I get to note the first appearance in this thread of Kevin Bacon, whose game inspired me to this idea. (He makes a fair number of appearances because of it.)

 

[NorthernPA4U]

thanks for the welcome, mrtnmoon... and for the tip...

I agree with his welcome ...

and the reason we do it this way, appending onto a previous list if needed, is because SOMETIMES people in here make mistakes, and we have to start all over.

And sometimes people haven't made a mistake, but people think we have, and they want to start over.

In any case, it's possible to get 2, 3, 4 competing paths trying to get through, and this way we can know which one you are trying to extend.


And I am out of here!

 

[janeyl]

I hope things are ok for you Nor-take care

and thanks for the tip last night-i'm going to try it somewhere they know me well
