Does this movie have a 1 degree of separation from every actor in Hollywood? Has to be the best ensemble in movie history, right?

GOAT cast.
Pretty much everyone is recognizable and went on to have a solid, if not good acting career.

Really is an absolutely absurd cast.
Even the smaller roles are recognizable.
This reminds me how much I love the "best cast" threads.

That's what led me to this. Now that I watch GoT I am blown away that Ser Jaime is in this.

you think that's better than the Black Hawk Down cast?

You can win 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon pretty much every time if you've seen "Sleepers".

With the modern budget limitations of modern filmmaking, having such a cast is unheard of, at least outside of occasional ego projects (Oceans), or things like superhero franchises which largely create some of their own star horsepower.
However, epic war films have a history of doing this at times:
The Longest Day
Eddie Albert
Paul Anka
Richard Burton
Red Buttons
Sean Connery
Fabian
Mel Ferrer
Hank Fonda
Steve Forrest
Jeffrey Hunter
Peter Lawford
Roddy McDowall
Sal Mineo
Robert Mitchum
Robert Ryan
Tommy Sands
George Segal
Rod Steiger
Richard Todd
Robert Wagner
John Wayne
Staggering the number of either big stars or would be big stars in that film.
A Bridge Too Far (also based on a Cornelius Ryan book and screenplay)
Dirk Bogarde
Sean Connery
Ryan O'Neal
Gene Hackman
Donald Pickering
Edward Fox
Michael Caine
Anthony Hopkins
James Caan
Max Schell
Elliott Gould
Denholm Elliott
Laurence Olivier
Robert Redford
John Ratzenberger

Smaller Cast but the future stars of many movies were in The Outsiders

Kelly's Heroes. Woof Woof.

Movies like The Longest Day, A Bridge Too Far, and even Saving Private Ryan have amazing casts with great actors even taking on minor roles. Black Hawk Down is solid too though.
Oh and The Expendables. Can't believe I almost forgot that cast.

Kelly's Heroes and Longest Day had better casts. So did Greatest Story Ever Told
