This was great. He's such a laid back guy, but someone that takes the work seriously, I can see why his career has lasted 5+ decades

[@Firestarter.999]

His portrayal in Murder in the 1st, was a oscar worthy.

[@beckyleonardis6331]

He's gorgeous, smart, funny, charming, a great actor, dancer and musician! He does it all! He's laid back, he's the kind of guy who gets along with everyone!

[@FunkNatives]

Air up there, Stir of Echos, & Tremors are probably one favorite Kevin bacon movies not to take from all his other hits but those 3 I could re watch over n over.

[@norabrockhaus8913]

Love this man. Great actor, songwriter and singer. He and his wife are amazing.

[@HaleyMary]

I loved FootLoose, Mystic River and The Following! I never knew he learned dancing in FootLoose. I thought they had all been trained in dance school. They were all so amazing in the movie!

[@Lushy260]

Such a down to earth guy, and really handsome

[@Crimson11100]

I thought he was a dancer! I never thought he learned on the set of Footloose, he was so good. :o

[@jc6594]

Happy 60th Birthday Kevin Bacon

[@beckyleonardis6331]

I just finished rewatching The Following! Better 2nd time around! Kevin, Shawn Ashmore and one of the writers mentioned during the panel at Comic Con. They were toying with the idea of bringing it back for season 4. I wish, they would've. They had some loose ends to tie up and everyone wanted to see Ryan get his happy ending.

[@shamimarman2519]

He is awesome! I have heard about him being super nice and friendly and it seems very true! Great interview

[@anarabrinmere739]

FYI -- See his most phenomenal acting in Murder in the First. So real, so hard to watch, but it's a true story & he was beyond the beyond. Nobody else could have done it. WOAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@anarabrinmere739]

If there was no Kevin Bacon, Gary Oldman could probably take on the role....

[@devonfelder5153]

I love Kevin Bacon he was on Hollow Man he played Sebastian The Invisible Man he did good on that movie

[@joycegibbs5267]

Criminally underrated commercially & in terms of awards. Extremely down-to-earth, maybe that's why he isn't/wasn't as popular as he should be?

[@melindassimpson7936]

The Following. I dug it. Stir of Echoes, Death Sentence, Sleepers....

[@diallohawa92]

The Guy traumatised me in sleepers.. but seriously what a great actor

[@antoinettenovella1630]

Phenomenally talented. Pure talent, humor, empathy and all round nice guy. Love this.
