    I have 3 trivia questions involving my 2 favorite movie directors, Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick.

    Let's see how long it takes for people to get these 3 questions right.

    1) 3 actors appeared in this Kubrick movie and each one appeared in a separate Hitchcock movie. Who are the 3 actors, the Kubrick film, and the 3 different Hitchcock movies?

    2) This actor and actress both appeared in the same Hitchcock movie AND Kubrick movie. What were the 2 movies?? BONUS - What were the names of the actor and the actress?

    3) This great character actor played a villain in a Hitchcock movie and was also the main lead in a Kubrick movie? What was his name and what were the 2 movies?

    Yes, that is correct, Sonny.

    For the longest time, I used to think that Mason was the only person to be in both a Kubrick movie and a Hitchcock movie.

    But then I did some searching and digging to come up with the other 2 questions.

    So, we will see if anyone gets those.

    Damn, Sonny, I'm impressed.

    Yea, lol, I knew there were a lot of people in Spartacus that appeared in Hitchcock films but didn't realize it was 6!

    IMDB does make it a little easier.

    Here is a bonus question for you:

    You have heard of the game "Six Degrees of Separation with Kevin Bacon" or something like that?

    Can you make the direct connection between these 2 actors?

    Robin Williams and Robert Cummings?

    In other words, find the actor that appeared in a movie with both Williams and Cummings.

    Yes, that is right although not the answer I was looking for!:D

    I was looking for Norman Lloyd who was in Saboteur (1942) with Cummings and Dead Poets Society with Williams, but lol this answer is correct, as well.

    Guess that ends this thread.

    Here's an easy one....

    Can you link Scatman Crothers with Ice Cube through 2 other actors?? (It may be possible to do it with less than 2, but I know 2 works for sure)
