He is taller than Randolph Scott in Ride the high country. I see him more at 6`3 as he was listed here for a while.
Great actor who starred in a bunch of masterpieces.

Wasn`t he shorter than George Sanders? Bob H. says on 31/Aug/08
In "Foreign Correspondent" he lookes George Samders squarely in the eye in all sceens. In "Fort Massacre" he does the same with Forrest Tucker. Both those actors were tall, about 6'4". I'd have to say McCrea was 'ABOUT' 6'4". Anonymous says on 10/Jul/06
I've read 6'4'' for McCrea, he always looks very big on film. No way was he less than a full 6'3''. Frank2 says on 25/Apr/06
McCrea was a fine actor. In some ways he was much better than Gary Cooper, an actor who played similar roles and closer to the abilities of Jimmy Stewart who I feel was one of the very finest of all the film actors of his day. Stewart was rarely matched. Only Spencer Tracy immediately comes to mind. And I'm speaking of the ability of an actor not to show their craft, but appear totally natural. McCrea was one of those actors. Gonzalo says on 24/Apr/06
McCrea was taller than 1`89cm. I agree with Frank2 and his comments. McCrea was also a good actor. Don`t miss his movies with Preston Sturges Mikex says on 21/Apr/06
Always looked 6'3'' at least. Genuinely tall guy. Cliff says on 20/Apr/06
All I know, is that it was seeing him stand next to Veronica Lake in "Sullivan's Travels" that convinced me that she was definitely under five feet tall. |
