  1. Madeline Kahn starred in the first Broadway show I ever attended, On the Twentieth Century, back in 1978. she was billed above the title with Imogene Coco and John Cullom. Billed just below the title and winning the Tony for best supporting actor was Kevin Kline. I’ve seen 24 of Madeline’s films, the highest ranked I haven’t seen is Judy Berlin.

    Madeline is # 921 on the 2021 Oracle of Bacon list (imagine she’s still on). These are the actors on the 2021 list she appeared with.

    1. Hey Dan
      1. Thanks for providing these lists filled with movie trivia.
      2. That is cool that On the Twentieth Century, was your first show and that she was in it.
      3. Did Kevin Kline shine in that one?…..and did he become….”That guy from On the Twentieth Century show”
      4. Surprised she made the Oracle list….with her limited amount of movies.
      5. Dom Deluise gets the most frequent Oracle co-star. Dom was not a favorite of mine…even as a kid I did not think he was that funny. But I have read he was a blast off screen and loved by many…so I always respected the “fun” he brought to movies.
      6. 17 Oscar winning co-stars…decent total for less than 30 movies.
      7. Tally count: Dan 24, me 18 and Flora 8.
      8. FYI – As a kid I always seem to get Kahn and Eileen Brennan mixed up…which is strange since they look nothing alike.
      Good stuff.

    1. Hey Flora…thanks for the comment on Madeline Kahn. I used to get her mixed up with Eileen Brennan when I was younger. I have seen 18 of her movies. I have seen all 6 of your favorites…I finally saw The Cheap Detective a few weeks ago. I have seen Paper Moon on your “others” list. I have always wanted to see The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes’ Smarter Brother….but seeing it on this list makes me think maybe I will not like it as much. Good stuff as always.
