A gorgeous woman. Found it funny how, in two movies, SCARAMOUCHE and even THE SOUND OF MUSIC, she lost out to the pretty, more prim and proper female leads. I would've picked Eleanor in a heart beat. Somehow she made Leigh and Andrews look like mere girls. Such the woman she was. Still smokin'n' well into her more mature years.
Ah, but I digress. 5'6" sounds like a fair call.

Eleanor Parker, who was born in May 1922 the same month as Christopher Lee, died on this day in 2013, aged 91. What a great actress who leaves a splendid legacy.
I just found 5ft6 for her, which tallies with the height she's written up as here.
RIP Eleanor XXX 🕯️

Could you add Pride of the Marines, Detective Story, The Naked Jungle and A Hole in the Head to her credits please? Also, maybe worth searching for a photo as she was fairly beautiful.
