Rob, could you please add And Then There Were None to Sommer’s film credits?
Sommer might never have been a true 5’7” but I think she was relatively close to it, she was about the same height as Richard Attenborough in And Then There Were None (1974). In A Shot in The Dark, Peter Sellers and Herbert Lom only seemed approximately one inch taller than Sommer.
Sommer gets a peak height estimate of 5’6.5” from me. I think any listing between 5’6” and 5’7” is reasonable enough for Sommer’s peak.

In heels she was about 2 inches shorter than Bob Hope. If he was a weak 5'11 in shoes that would put her at 5'6 max, reaching about 5'9 in heels.

Rob can you squeeze in Boy, Did I Get a Wrong Number, The Money Trap, Deadlier than the Male and The Venetian Affair. Yeah 5'7 seems a bit of a stretch!
