What the evidence establishes
A shared cast credit connects two actors through a particular movie. It does not establish friendship, a personal relationship, or a scene together. Movie years distinguish these titles from remakes and other versions.
These routes use the films and candidates selected for this puzzle. They are not a complete filmography or a claim about the shortest route across every movie.
