Rob, you absolutely have to add Giulietta Masina too. One of the greatest actresses.

now there aren't difference between north and south Italy , at least for the new generations

In North Italy you can find the tallest people in the country, in south the height is a bit shorter. The standard height is 176 cm, like in US. A 183 cm guy is still tallest than 80% of population. Keep in mind that, the Europe's standard height is 177 cm.

@Alex, I've been in northern Italy a year ago and (the more developed part), at 6 feet, I was comfortably taller than most men. Their women are above average, though.

Maybe years ago was a good height in Italy but not anymore, the standard height is increased.

Well, GianMaria never looked tall to me and he's supposed to have been 6'! I doubt 6' was the equivalent of 6'3-6'4 today!!! If anything, it's the opposite!
Maybe, this guy just thought he was short and he was surprised to find out he was this tall in person!

Like that's an impressive height


You're forgetting that for his generation in Italy it was sort of like 6'3 or 6'4 to us today.

Good addition...knew he was taller than Marcello Mastroianni and not towered by Donald Sutherland, maybe 3 or 4 inches shorter though.
