Because I'm 5'3" they always hire a girl that's at least 5'6" or 5'7" to play warrior women, and it pisses me off because if you look at a lot of the martial arts women that are exquisitely good at it, they're tiny. But they're solid muscle, which makes them very fast.

⭐ Fairuza dated David Thewlis for a while, having starred together in the movie 'American Perfikt'.

I've just seen 'The Craft' for the first time since I've been coming to Celebheights. Fairuza plays one of four girls who dabble in witchcraft, but she abuses her powers and ends up being certified. Not too jolly an ending at all.
I remembered her height to be 5ft2, and how relatively small she looked in comparison to Neve Campbell, whose 5ft6 is the tallest of the foolish quartet, by quite a noticeable chunk.
Fairuza takes pretty much the central stage in this horror classic, and although her part is anything but likeable, her acting is very good indeed.
It's funny to think that this is the same girl who played the innocent little waif, Dorothy, in 'Return to Oz'!
5ft2. 🧙

For a little lady, Fairuza plays some incredibly tough and formidable parts! I had noted that she's small when I saw her as Edward Norton's girl in 'American History X' and she looked tiny in 'American Perfikt' with David Thewlis, 6ft3!
Her height as written here seems pretty well spot-on!

Fairuza's great. I'll drink to 5'2".
Cool pic on the left, too (note the flawless David Boreanaz impression by Glenn).
