I mean see 90:30 it's ridiculous, she looks like near 6ft in comparison. Surely it must be a mistake Dorothy McGuire only being 5'4.5", Nearer 5'7 surely?

Rob see 84 minutes. Click Here How does a 5'4.5" lady look that tall next to a 6'3 guy? It isn't a box trick either, the height difference is the same when they're walking along side by side and you can see there isn't any trickery.

Strange, in Gentleman's Agreement Dorothy McGuire listed at 5'4.5" comes within 5 inches of Peck's height in heels.

He can look anything from 6'2.5"-6'4". Really long legged slim guy, looks easily 6'3" in To Kill a Mockingbird.

Rob have you seen Roman Holiday? Such a charming film, love it, Audrey Hepburn is so cute in it!! I'd say it is the best Peck film I've seen to date followed by the Flannel Suit. I'd rank both as among the best films I've ever seen. In the film Peck is stood in line with a load of press people and he's easily the tallest guy there, taller than the bearded guy in it who is around 5'11" I think and he looked head and shoulders above many of the guys in the line and looked easily 6'3". He could actually look like a 6'4" guy in some of the scenes, I think it was obvius he was over 6'2" anyway...

He really didn't look 6'3" in Night People. Incredibly boring film too! 12 O Clock high was really boring too. Both films are set in a military base with the same scene pretty much and endless dialogue. Man in the Grey Flannel Suit however was terrific from the 50s period and I'd rank that as one of the best films I've ever seen.

Next to Charlton Heston in The Big Country, the two guys are pretty close in height. My dad thought Peck looked a smidge taller but I thought Heston could look a little lankier, with a leaner frame than the blocky-shouldered Peck. Peck still looked about an inch taller than 6'2" David Warner in The Omen, though he had better posture despite being 25 years older than Warner.

Yeah I think 6ft range was his peak, more 5'11" later on. I could buy 184cm next to Peck but I doubt he was ever a full 6'1".

1 hr 35 near the end of the film Bernard Lee looks 6 ft range I think in comparison. 184-85 is possible I think. Can you remember how he faired next to Roger Moore? There is a scene in Live and Let Die at the beginning when Moore makes coffee but can't remember how he looked in comparison. I'd guess he looked a bit shorter than Moore.

Watching Purple Plain right now. Peck does look a genuine full 6'3". How tall is Bernard Lee Rob? I see 185cm for him on the web which was surely a joke, he looks similar to Niven in height, more 5'11" range. Pause at 18:59 for instance.

The difference between Niven and Peck is about 3 inches I think, Niven I think looked near 6' but 5'11.5" I think could be a good guess for him. Maybe a little downgrade for Peck to 190?

Yeah I think 6'2.5-6'3" could have been nearer what he was. If he was 6'2.5" then Gotell could have been 6'2" flat, although he did look a bit more than inch taller than Quayle in Ice Cold in Alex. 6'3.5"-6'4" as Philippe says is just a little exaggerrated. I'll watch a few more of his movies tomorrow I think. Unlike Gary Cooper who I get a solid 6'3" impression of, if anybody could have been 6'3.5" it was him but my impression of Peck is somewhere around 190 but I'm not sure he was a solid 6'3" guy barefoot.

I think that Peck was near 6'4 at his peak: slightly taller than 6'3 Heston in The big country; 2.5 to 3 inches taller than 6'1 Mitchum(Cape fear) and than 6'1 Moore(The sea wolwes);near 4 inches taller than his 6' friend David Niven (The guns of Navarone,The sea Wolves...);1 inch taller than 6'2.5 Matthau in Mirage ; etc...Therefore, Gregory Peck looks between 6'3.5 and 6'4 in most of his films, in spite of the official 6'3 of his biographies.
4 inches on Niven? 3 at the very most. Doesn't look over 6'3" to me. His proportions and face/hair are very similar to Goran Visnjic though who is 6'4", they have the same sort of face shape and hair. Strangely he looked the same height if not a tad shorter than Dean Jagger in Twelve of Clock High and he was listed at 6'2". But no way did Peck have 4 inches on David Niven.

I think Peck was a solid 6ft3 at his peak. He appeared to be identical in height to 6ft3 Heston in The Big Country and cetainly shorter than 6ft6 Chuck Connors. In the Sea Wolves (1980) he is distinctly taller than Roger Moore, possibly by 3 inches.

He looks a solid 6'3" next to Charlton Heston, Sidney Poitier and Robert Mitchum (whom he had at least 2 inches on in Cape Fear). Another thing of note is his broad shoulders, Heston looked thin in comparison to me.

The one agreed reference for all celebrity heights is Gregory Peck at precisely 6'3" (never 6'2" or 6'4"). Thats why it was interesting to see him in a long scene in "Captain Newman MD" with apparently slightly taller Dick Sargent (the No2 Darrin in "Bewitched"). It was only when they face each other to say goodbye that Mr Peck finally stretches to his full height and just matches Sargent "eye to eye". It was a very close call!

High shoulders can often make somebody look taller than actually are. Me for example, I am only 5,9 1/2" yet some people think I am 5,10" or 5,11" because of high shoulders.

Well I believe you. If he really was at least 2 inches shorter (and posture, footwear and other things were equal) I`d say Price was a solid 6-5. Not only 6-4. That`s because Peck has always looked no less than 6-3 and usually even more.
Price 6-5 and Peck 6-3.

Yes, Peck was shorter than Price by at least two inches in KEYS TO THE KINGDOM. Rent the film and check it out or if you get the Fox Movie Channel, they run it from time to time. Price was very tall and slendor. I saw him a few of times, starting in the 1960s and then during the time he made his last film which was EDWARD SCISSORHANDS. Earlier he looked 6'4" and later he was stooped so It was obvious age had taken its toll.

Yes, he had broad shoulders and I heard that he was physically very strong. At 6-3 with broad shoulders and big hands I`d say he could have been easily a 200-pounder. Robert Mitchum was 6-1 and 200 pounds. Peck looked clearly taller and more massive in Cape Fear. I find it very hard to believe that the man was only around 190 by then. Im 6-2 and weigh about 195 and Im really pretty slender! I dont have long limbs though, so I have a long torso and short legs so that might explain something.. All in all, in my opinion Peck always looked a tall, big man.

Peck was thin back when he started acting in the 1940s. Back then he did weigh about 170 lbs. But he had broad shoulders. As he aged, he put on more weight, but unlike so many men where it all goes into the gut, he filled out all over. By the 1960s he probably weighed about 185 to 195 lbs.

Peck was sure as hell a solid 6-3, Frank. Watch Cape Fear. Peck looks at least 2 inches taller than 6-1 Mitchum. He looks very tall in all of his movies. At least 6-3.
Price could have been more than 6-4. He could have been as tall as 6-5. Just saw a movie called "Haunted Palace". In that movie he looked clearly, very clearly taller than the 6-2 Lon Chaney Jr. No way there`s just 2 inches.
So I`d say that Peck was 6-3 to 6-3

in The Omen he was already a bit older (i think around 50+?), looked an easy 6'4 in shoes, i do agree he lost a lot of height once he reached 60+ and kept losing till the end.
easy 6'3 younger age, about 6'1.5 before he died imo.

Perhaps Gregory Peck lost a part of his height as he aged,but at his peak he looks between 6'3.5" and 6'4".In a photo of 1969,he stands in front of President Lyndon B.Jonhson(6'3.5")and has the same height(when receiving the medal of freedom).In a photo of 1949 he looks the same height than 6'4" John Wayne(in a stage production for charity "what price glory" in Hollywood).And in several films(The guns of Navarone,The sea wolves)and photos he looks about 4 inches taller than his "6 feet" friend David Niven.

Gregory Peck lost a lot of his height as he aged. Time magazine had a pic with him and Jimmy Smits, who is about 6'4, but towered over Peck. No human being can keep their original height when they are in the twilight years. Gregory Peck was of Irish decent, but he was also 1/4 Turkish. And a fabulous human being and actor.

Of course! Thanks to "reason" for lighting wise minds as philippe's, Fox's, Josh's and, let's be generous (Ilike him) Viper!
Gregory was of that sort of great and tall actors we miss currently so much!
He was brilliant, very clever and cultured! A Lord in a word; I miss them: Grant, Wayne, Cooper, Bogart, Mitchum, Cagney, Gable Douglas...too long list for those "yesteday", too short for those of today! Tom Welling is the for me, the only one having that "glint" and that presence but I doubt he ever become a star, a "movie star". Peck was one and was tall: not less than 6'3 I repeat.

I agree with Patrick and Josh:Peck looks near 6'4" at his peak:looking at the famous 1956 movie "Moby Dick"(Peck was just 40 years old), we see Peck standing beside character actor Friedrich Ledebur playing "Queequeg"(89th. mn) ,who we know earlier in the film he is 6'7"(see the 72nd. minute);Peck looks only between 2.5 or 3 inches shorter than the very tall Ledebur.So,Peck at his peak was actually 6'4".sure!

I ALWAYS saw him as being MINIMUM 6'3 and thought long he was 6'4; The fact is he had high shoulders what inclines to see him taller, maybe...Would tower over almost every other actor and looked taller, if my memory serves me right, than Chuck Heston; If he ever was 6'2 , that was after the 70ies; In th eOmen, he still is very tall; remember!

I walked past Gregory Peck in a hallway at Caesar's Palace about thirty years ago. He seemed very small to me. I was surprised. Now I am surprised to find that he was 6'3". I think this shows how deceiving all of this sort of thing can be. During the OJ trial I was surprised when he was refered to as big. I had seen him on streets of San Francisco and he had always seemed small. Speaking of the "Streets of Sanfrancisco" - Michael Douglas seemed like a child.
Conversely I shook Nixon's hand when I was in high school. I remember looking up at him. In fact I was probably at least three inches taller than him even then.
If I went by my own eye witness testimony I would believe that Peck (and OJ) were little guys and Nixon was a big guy. Fortunately I have this site to straighten me out.

I confirm that Peck looks more than 6'3",certainly near 6'4" at his peak.Indeed,in "The big country" he looks one inch taller than 6'3" Heston(especially in the second half of the film);in "The guns of Navarone" he looks 2'5" inch taller than 6'1.5"Quinn and much taller than 6'Niven;in "Cape fear" he looks more than 2 inches than 6'1.5"Mitchum;in "The sea wolves" he looks near 3 inches taller than 6'1"Moore and much taller than 6'Niven and 5.11 Mc Nee.Therefore ,the actual height of Gregory Peck at his peak was near 6'4" rather than 6'3".

I met Gregory Peck many times at parties and fund raisers in Santa Barbara and Montecito. He was at least 6'3" and carried himself with great dignity.

Peck looked a couple of inches shorter than Jimmy Smits in "The Old Gringo" & Smits is listed as 6'-3"...of course Peck was around 70 yrs old when he appeared in this movie, so he may have lost a few inches of height by that time

In The Big Country, Heston wears cowboy boots with two inch heels while Peck wears black English riding-style boots with one inch heels. Even then in most shots the two look about the same height.

Omar was 5'10" and wore lifts in McKenna's Gold. Peck was 6'3". Like I said, he was two inches taller than Bob Mitchum in the original Cape Fear.

Peck always looked 6'3" to my eyes. In "McKenna's Gold" he is 4" taller than Omar Shariff (5'11") and 5-6 inches shorter than 6'9" Ted Cassidy.

I think Peck was 6-3 at his peak. He was taller than everybody else in his movies, except Chuck Connors in The big country. He was a couple of inches taller than Anthony Quinn in The world in his arms and in The guns of Navarone.
Clearly a 1m 90 cm guy

Peck was definitely 6'3" in his younger years. In Cape Fear he looked two inches taller than 6'1" Bob Mitchum.

No way was Peck 6-4!!! I think Rob has a very accurate listing for him. He was always described as being between 6-2 to 6-3.

looking carefully at the film "the sea wolves", Peck was much taller than Moore who is 6'1. I think the difference was about 3 inches(8 cm).So,the actual height of Peck seems to be 6'4.

Peck was 6'2.5" to 6'3". Here are a few photos supporting this premise:
The first is with the 6'3" Sidney Poitier, where they look exactly the same height.
http://cinestills.com/image/1/a/annabellaoscar.jpg
The next two are with the 6'1.5" Brock Peters: one recent and one from the '60s. In both photos Peck towers over Peters.
http://www.homevideos.com/freezeframes918/mockingbird190.jpeg
http://www.lfla.org/photos/trib_peck_peters.jpg
Based on these, I would conclude Peck was at least 6'2.5" and perhaps as tall as 6'3" in his prime.

Everyone goes up and down 0.5"-1" in height depending on whether they are wearing shoes or not! Note to Anonymous: they are not called 'lifts', they are known all over the world as 'shoes'!

I could see why his height is listed as 6'2, which is accuratly correct. Cause in almost all of his movies he weares lifts, even look in Moby Dick. But with his shoes he probably is close to 6'3. But without them, he's just on 6'2.

Most ever listing (except for a couple at 6'2"), had him at 6'3" when standing straight as a young man. I always thought he looked 6'3" before age took it's toll.
