Six Degrees of Separation (Anna Magnani, entry 10 of 11)
If she were alive today, the amazing Italian actress Anna Magnani who Oscared for "The Rose Tattoo" (1955) would be 101 as she was born on March 7, 1908.
In her honor, we have selected her as our choice for the Six Degrees of Separation today. There is only one more entry left in this series, and then we will move on to other things.
Magnani is three degrees removed from Kevin Bacon. She was in "The Fugitive Kind" (1960) with Maureen Stapleton who was in "Cocoon" (1985) with Rance Howard who was with Bacon in "Frost/Nixon" (2008).
Bacon is currently starring in HBO's film "Taking Chance."
"Frost/Nixon" can be seen at the Lyric Theatre in Blacksburg, Va. It is my current choice for film of the year.
