Title: Frightening Myself
Description: ...it happens quite a bit
Kate - March 6, 2004 08:22 AM (GMT)
Well. I was watching "The Frighteners" again today, and my friends and I were making links... it's directed by Peter Jackson, and there are all these in-jokes in there (like, he has a cameo, and alludes to Heavenly Creatures - stuff like that). Anyway, I only just noticed today that Melanie Lynskey is in it (she does a cameo, because she knows Peter from Heavenly Creatures) so then I started doing links...
Melanie Lynskey is in 'Heavenly Creatures' with Trini Alvarado who was in 'Little Women' with Wynona Ryder who was in 'Girl, Interrupted' with Clea Duvall who was in 'BIAC' with Melanie Lynskey.
Does anyone else do that, or is it just me who needs get a new hobby?
I don't think there are six degrees of separation in there... but my point is that I think we could link anyone back to Clea. Do you want to try?

We did something like this kinda before..... I thought it was so super cool until someone meanly pointed out that Hollywood is really all over the place and you can link like, anyone together. I'm too lazy to link people right now but have you ever how many BIAC co-stars are together in other movies? Like..... Joel Michealy and Kip Pardue, in Rules of Attraction. Katharine Towne and Melanie Lynsky in Sweet Home Alabama. Katharine Towne and Clea DuVall in She's All That. I'm sure there's more.....
Crystie - March 7, 2004 02:36 AM (GMT)
Joel Michaely and Clea DuVall in Can't Hardly Wait...even though Clea's role is fairly small. but thats all i know from biac...all the people on yahoo that Clea has worked with most are on there like Pam Grier and stuff.
Miss A. - March 7, 2004 10:24 AM (GMT)
All of these people have worked with, or can be linked to Clea, but i just thought i'd put it down in this order...
Cathy Moriarty was in Casper with Christina Ricci, who was in Sleepy Hollow with Johnny Depp, who was in From Hell with Heather Graham, who was in Committed with Clea DuVall, who was in But I'm A Cheerleader with Cathy Moriarty.
Oh, and Katharine Towne and Clea were both in Girl, if that hasn't been said already...
Miss A. - March 7, 2004 11:14 AM (GMT)
So Kate, it's not just you who needs a new hobby. This is more than six, and you could probably cut someone out somewhere, but...
Julia Roberts was in Stepmom with Jenna Malone, who was in Donnie Darko with Jake Gyllenhaal, who was in The Good Girl with Jennifer Aniston, who was in The Object Of My Affection with Paul Rudd, who was in Romeo And Juliet with Claire Danes, who was in Little Women with Winona Ryder, who was in Girl, Interrupted with Clea DuVall, who was in But I'm A Cheerleader with Dante Basco, who was in Hook with Julia Roberts...
:geek:

That is very impressive - nice work, Rache.
I haven't heard of 'Sweet Home Alabama' - well, that's my line and I'm sticking to it for now... but, I saw Katharine Towne in that Buffy episode and thought "Hey" - so I think I will pick it up. Is it any good?
:rolleyes: I believe this is my 700th post... it's been so slow coming, because I haven't been online. Bloody life!

I have sweet home alabama. Katharine Towne is only in the deleted scenes, not the actual movie. but hilary from BIAC is in Sweet Home Alabama as Lerlynn, Melanie's old best friend.
Miss A. - March 10, 2004 10:09 AM (GMT)
Congrats on the 700+ posts!
I thought Sweet Home Alabama was okayish...
Hilary from But I'm A Cheerleader is in everything...like, Coyote Ugly...and...other stuff that i can't remember right now.
Linz - March 11, 2004 03:44 PM (GMT)
She was the nice wicked step-sister in Ever After with Drew Barrymore. and In Rose Red...A Stephen King Mini series that aired about 3 years ago...that was a great movie...about a house that was alive and just kept building. ANd the women zobie ghost things that lived in it to help it keep growing. I think its 6 hours long...but SOOOOOOOOOOOO good. Oh...Melianie played Sissy(in rose red)
Toad_T - March 11, 2004 09:14 PM (GMT)
can't you, like...get linked to every person in the world within seven people???
OK...I'll try one:
I know this guy, Leif (he is the only traditional fiddler around here except me... :P ), who is Renee Zellweggers uncle, Renee Zellwegger was in "The Return of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" with Matthew McConaughey, Matthew McConaughey was in "13 conversations about one thing" with...
*drumroll*:
Clea DuVall
:D :D :D
Kate - March 12, 2004 11:49 AM (GMT)
Hmmm...
I know Adam Elliot, who directed 'Harvie Krumpet' which was narrated by Geoffrey Rush, who was in 'Quills' with Kate Winslet, who was in 'Heavenly Creatures' with Melanie Lynskey, who was in 'BIAC' with Clea DuVall.
...OK, so say all these people are at a party together - I am 4 introductions away from freaking out the actor I most admire. Good to know.
Riley - March 12, 2004 01:46 PM (GMT)
I don't know anyone... I'm a hermet.
I guess I'll just resort to stalking people.
Kate - March 12, 2004 02:57 PM (GMT)
Stalking is often a good option.
Handy stalking hint #1: If you are going to go through someones' bin, try to disguise yourself as a butterfly. Nobody suspects the butterfly!
Riley - March 12, 2004 05:38 PM (GMT)
Once I went through someones trash dressed as a ladybug and I got caught.
At least now I know where I went wrong!!! Thanks for the hint!
Kate - March 13, 2004 12:41 AM (GMT)
Uh huh, well you were almost there, Riley. It's an easy mistake to make. Lady bugs are pretty too, but - as most people know - innocent they are not!
Handy stalking hint #2: Carry a folded up railway timetable, or a copy of "What bird is that?" with you when looking through windows with binoculars.
[note: carry an empty bottle of tranquilisers also, if not frequenting an area known for trains or birds]
Miss A. - March 13, 2004 03:12 AM (GMT)
You know Adam Elliot, Kate?
I dont know if this counts but...I know Mel Gibsons nephew, who is related to Mel Gibson, who was in The Patriot with Heath Ledger, who was in Ned Kelly with Naomi Watts, who was in 21 Grams with Clea DuVall.
Linz - March 15, 2004 04:01 PM (GMT)
OK OK...here is a really short one...
I know Jill Sprecker, director of 13 conversations, who worked with Clea!!!!
WOW I rock :yes:
Toad_T - March 15, 2004 04:58 PM (GMT)
yes you DO rock! :matrix:
why don't I know any cool people... :no:
Crystie - March 15, 2004 10:02 PM (GMT)
Woah yea linz you do rock...ask her about clea :yes:
Miss A. - March 16, 2004 03:10 AM (GMT)
Yeah! Me knowing Mel Gibsons nephew...okay, was never cool, but it sounds even less so now! :P
Kate - March 16, 2004 07:42 AM (GMT)
Haha! Yeh, I uess we all know someone's relative or friend.
... and, shit! I still haven't seen 21 Grams, dammit!
Linz - March 16, 2004 05:35 PM (GMT)
Actually when 13 conversations came out, and I met Jill, we talked about Clea. She said that she is one of the best actors to work with. And her (Jill) and her sister have been writing a script specifically for Clea! Wohoo!!!
Linz - March 16, 2004 05:36 PM (GMT)
Oh and Miss A, I still think that you are way cooler than I am for knowing Mel Gibsons Nephew. I haven't spoken to Jill in some time, at least you probably have real contact.

Kate - March 17, 2004 07:39 AM (GMT)
Well you know me, and I slept with Jane Campion's niece... so, you know, that's a connection. If it will make you feel any better about it, you can sleep with me... or even if it won't make you feel better about this, the offer is there.
Linz - March 17, 2004 02:27 PM (GMT)
LOL....

That was FABULOUS! Crys...you should SO take Kate up on that.
Crystie - March 17, 2004 10:19 PM (GMT)
Yea i dont know anyone either :( . the only famous people i ever meet are these football players but who cares? I WANT HOOKUPS WITH CLEA DAMMIT!!! :@
Riley - March 18, 2004 03:48 AM (GMT)
Yes, my manager sleeps with half the Indianapolis Colts team... so they always come into Circuit City. I've met a couple of them.
But you're right.... who cares about foozeball players.
And Kate...
Tried the butterfly thing the other day. I was making sure my neighbors weren't plotting to steal my rabbit... so I was listening to their conversations outside their kitchen window and they acted as though I wasn't there.
I figure they actually thought I was a butterfly.... or maybe they subscribe to MSN?
Kate - March 18, 2004 09:45 AM (GMT)
Good work, Riley - use this power wisely... and by that, I mean do NOT fly near spider webs.
:huh: OK?
Crys - March 18, 2004 05:09 PM (GMT)
I've never had an offer to sleep with me based on making me feel better about not having good links in the Six Degrees of Seperation game thingy. *Gets all teary eyed* You're the absolute best, Kate. :)
And Riley, listen to Kate about not flying near spiderwebs. The people dressed as spiders can be really vicious. *nods*
