I agree he doesn't look under 5 ft 8 there though. OK he wasn't 5 ft 6 or 7 but 5' She could never have believed that! Possible she was using the 2 inch rule. I get a impression from him a lot, but just when I think weak 5 ft 8 he'll pull off 5 ft 9.

If you really look at him in films, his frame is that of a slight man, more typical of 5 ft 7 range than 5 ft 9 or 5 ft 10!. He was short but powerful. His handshake was powerful. His son ran a shop gas station.

I made a mistake on my last post. Bogart is 5 foot 6 inches He was no wear near 5 foot 9 as some people suggested in this Article. The movie Sabrina Humphrey Bogart is numerously standing along side of 5' 10 William Holden and you can see a difference.

Now the question is was William Holden really 5 '10 or perhaps maybe 5' 9 which would make Bogart even shorter. It's been known that male actors from the silver screen up to now wear lifts and always add an inch to their height. Sure why not? That gives him an extra inch less for people to talk about. Bogart never tuck me as a tall person. He and Cagney seemed to be very close in height in the movies they did together and Cagney was about 5 foot 5 inches.

Seeing Bogart in The African Queen numerous times i can only recall how short i thought he was. Now i am 5 foot 10 inches and looking in the mirror i really do appear very tall and 5 foot 10 matches me very well. Bogart was 5' 7 inches. I honestly think he was over 5'8 but not 5'9.

He looked average in Casablanca. However, it also states that Bacall was as tall as him. But I seriosly doubt Bogie had a 40" chest. Probably at most 38". He was small boned and it shows. He wore jackets with padded shoulders. Great photo BTW it's almost like he's touching us. About an inch shorter than both. Had to have been in lifts in most of his films, even if not big ones. Similar to Daniel Craig difficulty. I think the stats are all legit except they were calling his height in lifts haha!

Can you mention "In the film Dark Passage he gives his measurements as "40 chest, Rob, would somewhere between those be closer? Bogie was a dour kind of guy and probably an alcoholic but he had a strong moral code. The Lax bio from Bogart is a good read. His Dixon Steele character he didn't like as it may have been too on-the-nose. I look in Charity shops for them but once a year I get hubby to take me up to Hay on Wye to the book shops there where I pick up a few.

I agree it can be compelling reading. I must read more myself! Certainly no taller than 5'8". In Angels with Dirty Faces, looks to have two-three inches on Cagney, who was most likely between 5'4" and 5'5". Bogart looked about 5'11" next to Halop. He must have been wearing those Shoe Blocks in that film.

He would never try that with Cagney. Cagney would have probably belted him if he pulled that Shoe Block nonsense. Bogart looks small in The Caine Mutiny. Granted there were some tall actors in the cast of the Caine Mutiny, such as Fred MacMurray, but Bogart looks rather small. Can't believe he was ever 5'9". Even 5'8" seems a bit of a stretch. I've read bios of him and he could be tough, and could physically take down considerably bigger dudes if they ticked him off. He was. Yet he wasn't.

How could a short skinny guy with Barney fife physique be tough? Take a look, Bacall was a tall 5'8" model before her movie career, so judging from the photo, Bogie must have been around 5'9" tall in bare feet. That'll be it. Even in todays world a 5''8 guy is able to survive, in those days it was more than enough, i dont know about though.

It was painful watching him last year in The Harder They Fall,about boxers being manipulated by greedy managers,but I could tell he was dying of esophogal cancer,which took his life in at the age of But it was a great way to end the movie.

Not sure what either had on their feet but looks reasonable for a 5'7. In a lot of his films he was stood by six footers. This was average for men of his era but "average" is always seen as somewhat short anyway.

There were a lot of male leads well over six feet in those days -- Gary Cooper, Rock Hudson, Gregory Peck, John Wayne, etc, so Bogart was on the short side no doubt about it. Don't you think he was shorter. Nobody goes on calling Sean Penn or Matt Damon short. Bogart looked dead short in The Caine Mutiny. Even though it had a tall cast he could look 5'7" range in comparison at times. Really looked short in High Sierra. He could look as low as 5'7" range at times.

Didn't think much of that film which is rare for me to think that of a Bogart movie. She looked pretty tall, somewhere around Bacall, of course plenty of pics around, even barefoot, he's taller, yet they are both oddly listed 5ft8 now.

Bacall was listed 5ft7. He could seem taller at times because of footwear and because he had an unusually long face for a guy his height. I'd guess he was He wore massive stacked heels and still looked way shorter than guys over 6 ft. That's how he was measured when he enlisted in the US Navy in when he was With lifts he could appear to be five nine in shoes, but that was about it. They also used tricks such as placing him on boards or closer to the camera than the taller actor he was standing next to.

In Sabrina, he was visibly shorter than William Holden who's listed as having been five eleven. In the film To Have and Have Not, Walter Brennan purposely made himself appearbto be shorter by keeping his legs bent.

In real life Brennan was at least six feet tall and could have been six foot one. He was the same height as Red Skelton who was supposedly six two. In one of the scenes Bogart gets out of bed and he is at least an inch taller than Bacall.

Therefore unless he wore lifts in bed I would say if Bacall was 5'8" then Bogart would be nearer 5'9". Bogart is slightly taller than Bacall, who is listed as 5'8" on this site. He must have been very height conscious because I've noticed he often has actors shorter than him stood next to him so at times he even looks quite tall.

But he was definitely noticeably shorter than Sydney Greenstreet who was listed at 5'9" and looked it easily. I could buy 5'8. Where on earth do these claims come from? Here he is barefoot with his 5'8 listed wife. She's got ground advantage. And did you know Galifianakis, who is 5 feet 7 inches, was in a Kanye West music video , too?

Martin Lawrence is a comedic icon. The show aired for 10 seasons before coming to an end in If you grew up in the s, you probably also know Mark Wahlberg as the kid brother of Donny from the boy band New Kids on the Block.
