You may want to add that it can only be actors or actresses that people have actually seen in a movie. Nothing's worse than having someone imdb some weird iranian film and picking "Sitting guy #2" from the bottom.

I'm hoping this will all be in the name of fun, and sitting guy #2 is okay with staying in Iranian obscurity for this one.

Hitler, Adolf.

If I remember correctly, Hitler was the subject of the documentary The Third Reich, which also featured Eli Wallach, who was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon

I'll say 1/2 credit, as Hitler was not actually in the film, only stock footage.

And if we're counting stock footage:
Adolf Hitler was in Contact with
Tom Skerritt who was in M*A*S*H with
Donald Sutherland who was in Animal House with
Kevin Bacon!

Half credit works for me.

Adolf Hitler has a Bacon number of 3.

Adolf Hitler was in Ewige Jude, Der (1940) with Curt Bois
Curt Bois was in Great Sinner, The (1949) with Kenneth Tobey
Kenneth Tobey was in Hero at Large (1980) with Kevin Bacon

I have no idea on Fatty Arbuckle(I'm not very versed in silent movie-era comedians), but the other two I can handle:

Maureen O'Hara was in McLintock with
John Wayne who was in How the west was won with
Eli Wallach who was in Mystic River with
Kevin Bacon!

and:
Lauren Graham was in an episode of 3rd Rock From the Sun with
John Lithgow who was in Footloose with
Kevin Bacon!
