The Actor Game

I'm sure you've all seen some version of this... here's how this one goes. I'm going to name an actor and then a movie. The next person names another actor in that same movie and then another movie that that person was in.

So, for example.

Meg Ryan - You've Got Mail

The next person might say - Tom Hanks - Forrest Gump

Then the next person might say Sally Field - Mrs. Doubtfire

Etc. Etc. Etc.

Got it!!

Ok here's where we start!!

John Travolta - Basic

Madonna ~ Dick Tracy (1990)

Oh wow - good play, moving to Madonna like that!  :D  What role did Madonna play in Ragtime?  Such a good film, so many great actors in it... from James Cagney to Jack Nicholson, but I don't remember Madonna in there, and even IMDB doesn't know about it.  It came out in 1981, when she was still a nobody back-up singer, and I just can't find any screen credits for her then.

Mary Steenburgen ~ Clifford (1994 - Sarah Davis) 

(How did I get so confused?  I was doing so good - LOL!!!!  I went to Mandy Patinkin (actor) instead of Ragtime (the movie).  Thanks for acknowledging my good play modifiedme - it was a pretty good move squeezing Madonna in there!)

Martin Short ~ Three Amigos (1986)

Chevy Chase -- Fletch

Tim Matheson ~ Animal House (1978 - Eric 'Otter' Stratton)

John Belushi ~ Blues Brothers

Dan Aykroyd ~ Coneheads (1993 - Beldar)

James Belushi ~ Mr. Destiny (1990 - Larry Joseph Burrows)
