Daniel Day-Lewis is a Brit ???
Who knew ???
I always think of him when I think of my own Leatherstocking type ancestor who was in the Provincial Army at that same period.. He was killed fighting the French and Indians at Lake George, Sept 1755
He was said to be handsome and charmed his future MIL with the gift of his Irish tongue.. My 6th ggrandma refused to marry anyone else..
:)
Okay, Brit and Irish.
Christian Bale and Gerard Butler are two more tall and muscular Brit actors.

All my life I loved Gary Cooper then I saw an interview by Patricia Neal. It broke my heart that an actor that always portrayed such noble characters was such a creep.
Height isn’t as important as length.
Yup. Of course there are exceptions, but it seems to me cutting edge current leading men of today all look way prettier and softer than the leading men types of the past. And it seems like there was a lot more guys with leading man gigs who didn’t even look classically handsome back then.

Well why are we comparing English stars? We English stars back in the day tall? Worthless lie of an article not that I am surprised.
I can’t stand him but that movie was good and Tom did well.
No clue!
Yes the trend does seem to not care that the woman is taller with high heals. It annoys me but I imagine nobody cares in Hollywood what I think....Nicole Kidman who FINALLY found a decent husband STILL wears heals that even makes her hubby shorter. I don’t know why she does that.
Most likely because Hollywood has chosen to hire a ton of Canadians, Europeans, and Australians today. You see a much larger percentage of foreigners than actual Americans in films today. That may have something to do with shorter actors too.....
And Duvall is a fantastic actor. See ‘Tender Mercies’.
Love Bogey..those things made him real..made him Bogey.
Arnold Schwarznagger - short
Nearing 80 Loren needs to dial it way down..put the boobs away. She’s. Looking like a drag queen.
Wish could add some.I barely weigh 100 soaking wet..runs in the family

Then what about Joaquin Phoenix?
