Well, as the "suggester" of the thread, presumably my voice counts for something

The one place I've played a game like this before, TV shows were acceptable for links. I think we used marriages once or twice, but only when necessary.

So, Hilary Swank. I'll avoid the one that came to mind first since it reuses the Rachael Leigh Cook connection I just used.

1) Hilary Swank was in The Core with Aaron Eckhart
2) Aaron Eckhart was in Thank You For Smoking with Cameron Bright

Next: How about someone from a somewhat earlier generation. Al Pacino

1.) Al Pacino was in 88 Minutes with LeeLee Sobieski
2.) LeeLee Sobieski was in the Glass House with Diane Lane
3.) Diane Lane was in Untraceable with Billy Burke

Next: Julie Andrews

1. Julie Andrews was in The Princess Diaries with Mandy Moore
2. Mandy Moore is in the upcoming Love, Wedding, Marriage with Kellan Lutz

Next: Gene Hackman

1.) Gene Hackman was in Twilight (1998 film) with Reese Witherspoon
2.) Reese Witherspoon is in Water For Elephants with Robert Pattinson

I thought that one was a bit ironic and wanted to throw it out. I came up with another anyways.

1.) Gene Hackman was in Get Shorty with John Travolta
2.) John Travolta was in Hairspray with Amanda Bynes
3.) Amanda Bynes is in Easy A with Cam Gigandet

Next: Natalie Portman

Next: Robert Duvall

1) Robert Duvall was in Thank You For Smoking with Cameron Bright

Interestingly, I went to the same college that Robert Duvall did, a small liberal arts college in Illinois. We were there about 30 years apart, but a couple of my professors had been students at the college with him and known him.

Next: Sarah Polley

Nooo! I forgot all about Thank You for Smoking! I heard my mom say his name when I walked past her while she was on the phone. That's really interesting. it's always nice to find out the history of schools and who's been there. Anyone else?

2.) Danny Huston was in The Number 23 with Virginia Madsen
3.) Virginia Madsen was in The Haunting In Connectiut with Kyle Gallner (couldn't wait to use kyle. I <3 him! xD)
