Veronica lake how tall

Please enlighten me! That, it would seem, is my only saving grace! Her voice and demeanour, very masculine, almost like a big cowboy type or something, so odd for such a tiny framed woman.

I wouldn't have wanted to get into an argument with her put it that way. I think the right director could squeeze something like a good performance out of her. Paulette Goddard looked tall next to her in Star Spangled Rhythm and she looks like little more than 5'2" with Chaplin! I'm not denying that she had a mysterious air about her which was quite suitable to some of the film noir type films, but she was definitely a wooden actress.

Well Martin she turned me cold as an actress. Her head movements especially were so stiff and her voice strangely deep and wooden for her height.

For christ sake, you guys got a lot of catching up to do. No doubt the fact that she was short had to do with her pairing with Ladd Read a few biogs on her and they give her at 4ft 10 to 4ft She was a tiny slip of a built though, almost doll like.

Editor Rob. And a better actress too!! McCrea looks about a foot taller than her in heels, I suppose she has to be this short really, although I could also buy 5 ft. Russell Crowe says to her in the film, "You look better than Veronica Lake". He might have added "taller too". Veronica began drinking alcohol, and as a result, the other actors refused starring with her. Later on, the star was dismissed, leaving behind only her popular hairdo.
