Yeah rob. I saw an italian tv series and he looked very short (even if i gotta say he had poor posture). What about 5'8 now?
[Editor Rob: yes he has probably shrunk to around that mark today.]

I think he lost some height due to his age. He was always the tallest of the Cassavetes-Falk-Gazzara trio. fiore says on 17/Sep/11
I met Gazzara in Arezzo in July, i am 183-184cm and next to me he looked at least 10cm lower, so i would say about 173cm or 5'8'' Sam says on 23/Jun/11
Gazzara was sometimes towered over by a real tall co-star (George Lanzeby in Saint Jack or Timothy Carey in The Killing of a Chinese Bookie), although oddly he looked not that much shorter than Jimmy Stewart in Anatomy of a Murder...maybe due in part to his military posture in the part. Also appeared a bit taller than Toshiro Mifune guyfrommars says on 10/Jan/11
I've also read rumours about that Chuck Connors thing, which happened when they starred together in the series Arrest and Trial. Gazzara stood on boxes and used camera angles to make him look taller next to him. However, I asked a director of the series about it, and he said he doesn't remember any such problems. So maybe it's just a rumour. |
