I think this one is fairly easy going through Harry Potter of LotR but there were far too many actors for me to bother working it out.
I got as far as
Matt Damon - Paddy Considine - Cate Blanchette

Who the hell is Amy Irving?

Grace Jones to David Bowie should be fairly easy, they're both fashionistas and i think both have been involved with Andy Warhol. I wouldnt be suprised if they were in the same film together.
Anyway

Grace Jones - Roger Moore(or was it Timothy Dalton)/Christopher Walken/The Governator

I dont think she's been in many other famous films aside from Conan and the Bond films. Bowie hasnt done many famous either

David Bowie - Jennifer Connoly(Labyrinth) and the only other film i know he was in is Basquiat, which i think involved quite a few famous people. IMDB is my friend, Christopher Walken was in Basquiat, along with many other people. I wouldnt be suprised if Grace Jones was in that film directly actually.

Bah, all that brain power and then you go and edit it

Never mind, well done Nin :(

If you're going to include TV shows, I think the game might become pretty pointless.  After all, most high profile actors will attend the Oscars, Baftas, Golden Globes, Emmys etc..  So can just as easily say you saw them on the TV show covering the event.

Why not do it the way this competition is always done, with the person who won the last round setting the next 2 names and not entering into that round?  Will give everyone a chance to get points too.

If i pick 2 actors at random, which I do. Then i've got just as much reason and chance of getting the shortest link as you.
