The Theory
Six Degrees of Separation suggests that any two people in the world can be connected through six or fewer social connections. This idea was famously applied to actors with "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" - where players try to connect any actor to Kevin Bacon through shared film appearances.
In Cinematic Connections, we've turned this concept into a daily puzzle. Instead of connecting actors to Kevin Bacon, you connect two movies through their shared cast members.
How It Works
Each puzzle gives you a START movie and a TARGET movie. Your job is to find the path between them:
