I always thought she looked 5'4"! I think that was her listed height for a long time (not on this site). She's built pretty straight up and down, with a boyish body, which is probably why I always thought she was taller. Extraordinary actress and absolutely mesmerizing on screen, but unfortunately so underrated, especially outside of France.

Thanks, Rob & team for adding another French @ctress...but I am sure you could do even better...there are many, many more accomplished French actresses you could add to your site. This lady is around 5 ft 2, I think.

Editor RobAdding new additions is a slow process.
There is the time involved in doing it and keeping a certain 'momentum' or pace to the additions to the site.

Good addition too, cleaning up on those French actresses. Like Moreau, Isabelle was never a conventional beauty but was always simultaneously a sensual, sexy presence and kind of commanding and intimidating despite her small stature. I actually wasn't aware she was this short, I think she is usually in ample heels. With Gerard Depardieu, I think she tended to look around 6 inches shorter.

Editor Robisabelle was asked about 3 times, but I have seen a bit more of her and at most I'd have thought 5ft 2.
