Re: Actor Heights?

[(Anonymous)]

totally different anon here but just wanted to interject. i do the slouch-to-avoid-making-people-uncomfortable thing too!! i'm 5"10 but am occasionally guilty of wearing a couple-inch flatform (i cannot walk in heels, honestly i look like a newborn deer). the slouch is pretty much my default though. grew up as the tallest in class + all my female friends have been 5"5 and under, i always feel like i stick out so slouching is the most natural thing for me.

always wondered if other people did it too, cool to know they do! :-)

It's kind of sad that we cater to other people's issues, yeah. {random hugs}

I feel like Deborah must hear from photogs and directors all the time to not wear heels unless her [male] costars are like 6'. She looks smaller on film, which is weird, because every time I see her alongside her costars, she seems like she's not so tiny after all (which is awesome):

Speaking of tiny muffins, I wonder if Charlie and Elden have to deal with the other side of the coin, not being very tall guys? Hollywood expectations and all that. I should be glad for Robert Downey, Jr for existing. But I did come across this pic this weekend and it startled me. This whole time I thought the camera angles in Daredevil were making Wilson Fisk look huge. No, he's actually that big, and then some. LOOK AT THE SIZE OF HIS HANDS. That is some ace casting right there:
