How You Can Be In One Degree Of Kevin Bacon

Yep, I’m one degree to Kevin Bacon now. How?

I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a theater until the credits are done rolling. As soon as I see the first name, I’m running across that popcorn covered floor to freedom because, honestly, who the heck wants to watch the credits? There are, of course, the rare occasions where there are small clips and such after the end credits but I usually just can’t be bothered, especially since you can probably find them on YouTube later anyways.

With that in mind, how would you like to watch a movie that has one actual second of film footage and then another, oh, 90 minutes of credits? Exhilarating, I know…but that’s the idea behind The 1 Second Film, a movie being made for charity (all proceeds go towards the Global Fund for Women) which you can help produce by making donations starting from a buck. Yep, a dollar will get your name in the end credits, alongside folks like Jack Bauer…um…Kiefer Sutherland, Spike Jonze, Stephen Colbert, Kevin Bacon and…Pauly Shore, who have all been listed as contributors. It’s a cool idea and the money goes to a good cause.


Also, if you take part, YOU are now ONE degree of Kevin Bacon. Yep, you’d be closer to Kevin Bacon than freakin’ Elvis (who is two degrees, if you’re wondering).
