Rob, who do you think was taller in Sea of Love, Ellen Barkin or Al Pacino?
Editor Rob
Been years since I watched it.

I’d say 5’6.25” for Barkin, she was basically the same height as Al Pacino, it is hard to tell their heights apart in Sea of Love. I think Barkin was just a hair taller than Pacino, I recall Pacino wears shoes for longer than Barkin does in some of their scenes together in Sea of Love.

I remember Ellen in the riveting film 'Sea of Love' with All Pacino, one of my all-time favourites, and also in the surprisingly funny yet stupid and naff film 'Drop Dead Gorgeous', though for me, Brittany Murphy stole that particular show! Brittany's 5ft3 according to her website and Ellen looked a sizeable bit taller than her in that film; I would have thought a possible 3.5 - 4 inches! I'll have to check that one out!
For some reason, I've often mixed her name up with Ellen Burstyn, who played the actress Mum in 'the Exorcist'! I know the difference now though! Quite a few years and also a slightly different person! 👱👸
I would have previously said Ellen was about 5ft6.5, but if she says she's 5ft6 exactly, then who am I to argue? 5ft6 goes in le box!

maybe because pacino was never 5'6.

She's 5 foot 6 and without heels but appears taller than Al Pacino in Sea of Love...

I don't know, she looked extremely shorter than 6' feet Allison Janney (Drop Dead Gorgeous). She looks max 5'5 or less

She looked tall in sea of love. I think she is 5ft 7 without hells. I saw her a couple of years back and she looked much taller than me and i am about that height but she was probarbly wearing high hells back then.

Who cares. Probably from the divorce settlement she got from Perlman, Barkin has about $10 million dollars for each inch of her actual height.

I saw Ellen in in New York eating somewhere in the village. I would have to say she is around 5'5. She is wearing heels in this photo. Don't forget she was married to Pearlman who is short. She appears more busty then when I saw her.

hight heels can make they look more taller, because many heels is about 3 inc or higher.
Glenn said on 10/Feb/07
Im surprised that people think heels give you that height.nobody had girlfriends that wore heels? did it really give them 4 inches? not by my experience.though 5-7 surprised me by her.I dont remember her that tall.5-6 Im guessing more.

These heels look like to have 3-4 inches and she is still shorter than 5'8''. I always thought that heels would give a woman some inches of height.
6'2.5'' JK said on 9/Feb/07
If shes wearin those heels then she is probably 5'7''
Jen said on 8/Feb/07
She might have low heeled shoes on in that pic with Glenn.

Editor Rob
this might be the heels she is wearing: here, same outfit/hair?

I'd always seen her listed at 5'5 in the print media, before the internet, and she is, IMO.
