This is not the Bacon you are looking for.
Has anyone else checked out Google's Bacon number calculator feature? You can calculate the degrees of separation between Kevin Bacon and any other actor by googling "Bacon number name of other actor."
So far I've not been able to come up with anything higher than 3.
This is not the Bacon you are looking for.
For my own personal 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon, I can do it in two moves.
When I was ten, I was in a movie with Valerie Bertinelli, Shelly Long, Jameson Parker and Craig T. Nelson...
Shelly long was in "the money pit" with Tom Hanks...
Tom Hanks was in "Apollo 13" with...
Kevin Bacon.

I can't think of anyone that came up higher than 3. Even Charlie Chaplin's Bacon number is 2.
I like to do my own version of this game, but I replace KB with Jamie Farr... 6 degrees of Jamie Farr.
and without googling it, I can usually link just about anybody in 6 or less.
try me.
Jimmy Walker and Mr. T are both 2.
Sheesh.

I tried running some silent film actors through the google bacon calculator, and quite often it came up empty or wrong. There's probably some high Bacon numbers among them, but you'll have to figure it out the old-fashioned way.
