So many clothes look so great on the rack and I put them on and they fit like a dress. I'm 5 foot 6.

I never cared about my height. All the actors I ever met were small. It's not really about being 6ft tall. It's about bringing joy.

He’s a little bit short but not tiny.

Classic downgrading comments on this post just calling him "tiny", he easily looks this height. In Scott Pilgrim he looked at least 5'5 1/2 in my opinion. Here's one example with strong 5'8 Mary Elizabeth Winstead, looking maybe 2.5 inches shorter accounting for posture: Click Here
In the photo with Aubrey Plaza here, who would be 5'8 in those heels, he honestly gives a full 5'6 impression, looking about 1.5 inches shorter than her (so subtracting footwear, he would be 5'5.5-5'6). I agree with Lee's comments here, I'll give him 5'5 3/4.

looks nothing under 5ft 5 1/2 beside audrey plaza who would be 5ft 8 in those 3.25inch heels. definitely not strong 5ft 4

I’d downgrade an inch. I don’t think he’s 5’3” as noted but I can’t see 5’5” or more. My guess is a strong 5’4”, he’s a small guy.

I would say he is as low as 5'4, he looks very tiny even with his thick soles, and also the cloth fitting problems.

Look at his comments. A legit 5'6 guy would have no problem finding clothes that fit properly. This guy is 5'4 range. I would question that he weighs 140lbs either. Im guessing 130lbs at most. He is not muscular or fat and very short.

Watching Rushmore and he looks tiny but he was only 17 at the time so I guess he could have grown a smidge.

Yh, Watched Rushmore and If anything I cant see him being as high as 5'5.5 or 5'6, I think 5'4 range seems more realistic, Bill Murray is a solid 6'1 back then so he would tower him and Olivia williams is a tall women 5'8 maybe 5'8.5 but I cant see Jason being close to 5'6.

In Hotel Chevalier he looks very similar in height to Natalie Portman, maybe an inch taller. Most places list her as 5' 3". They are both barefoot in most of those scenes.

Click Here Jonah Hill looks about 5 cm taller than Jason Schwartzman, also Jason's shoes look very suspicious, it's quite vertical from above compared to Hill's shoes and look at those huge heels. Considering Johna Hill is 168 cm and taking in count that Schwartzmann isn't wearing any elevators or lifts in the pictures, which is highly doubtfull it's still impossible to see Schwartzman anything taller than 164 cm and that's being generous. You're way off on this one Rob!

There are photos floating around of him with Seth Green, they're almost the same height (Schwartzman is maybe an inch taller). Also photos of him with Zack Galifianakis, who looks taller than Schwartzman by up to several inches.

I met him around 2003 when he was touring with Phantom Planet and he was no taller than 5'3". Unless he wears huge lifts now or had limb lengthening surgery, he's nowhere near 5'5.5"

Isn't there the possibility that he's grown a little from the 5'3" he was in Rushmore?
He was only 18 at the time after all.

In Rushmore there is a scene where Bill Murray's character has to describe Jason's character to the cops. He said he was 5'3". I think that's pretty accurate because he's shorter then everyone else in the movie, even the girls.

i've seen a lot of films featuring schwartzman, and 5 ft 3 really does seem like a borderline ridiculous estimate.

I just watched shopgirl - great movie! I think he may be 5'5, as he was standing face to face with clare danes and she had heels on.. unless they put him on top of a box (they didnt show their feet!;)

No way he is any taller than 5'5". Like anon said, he was described as being 5'3" in Rushmore when he was 18. Most people have stopped growing then, maybe he grew an inch but no way he got 2.5 inches taller after 18!

Jason is 5'3.5" I ran into him at the house of blues a few months ago and was taken back that he was the same height as I am, and I am 5'3.5" without shoes. We both had shoes on. I wanted to ask him where he gets his clothes but I was far to shy, I just said Hi.

they probably marked him in the movie rushmore as 5'3" because he plays a grade schooler..and as for the people mocking his height, get over it. he's a very good actor and thats all that matters. losers.

Yes in Hotel Chevalier he, surprisingly, did look shorter than Natalie Portman, though he was barefoot and she was in heels. Also, in The Darjeeling Limited, he looked roughly half a foot shorter than Adrien Brody and Owen Wilson.

no way 5'5" cause first: Dustin Hoffman never was a full 5'6" and without any doubt aaproaching 70 years of age he lost a bit of height so HE is a max of 5'5" and he is taller than Schwartzman so how can Schwartzman be 5'5"? NO F...WAY: A strong 5'4 maybe even 5'4.5" but max!!

Billy D if he was a good 4 inches shorter than Waris Ahluwalia who's you think is 5'9 then that would make Jason in fact 5'5.Plus in the movie "I Love Huckabees" he was only one inch shorter than Dustin Hoffman who is listed at 5'6 so I think 5'5 is dead on though I never met the guy.

Jason can't be any taller than 5'5. He was clearly 2-3 inches shorter than Mark Wahlberg who's 5'8 listing might be just a tad generous. Better yet, look how short he is in Wes Anderson's American Express ad. He's a good 4 inches shorter than Indian actor Waris Ahluwalia who's only 5'9.

Others here mentioned "Rushmore" which I just watched tonight, and although I didn't catch the mug shot thing, I'm think his police description was given out at "5'3" and "112 pounds"...I've seen him in many films and I don't know about 5'3, but I really can't see 5'5 either. I think this listing should be dropped to 5'4

he was only 17 or 18 when rushmore was made, and looked very small then, but, I'm sure he's grown since, and it even looks that way...I'd say 5'6" - 5'7"

I know Mike Maronna thru a friend; i've visited him in the Jersey area. Never asked him about schwartzman but Maronna is 5-7 to 5-8, and in Slackers he was a good 3-4 inches taller than Jason. also in "Spun", Leguizamo was about 3 inches over,(but Leg had his ubiquitous boots on)

U watch the movie slackers, you'll notice how much shorter he is than the other guys. So yeah, by putting him just under 5'6 you're being generous, cause I'd put him at like 5'4.4"
By the way, I Heart Huckabees was really good.

In Rushmore, there is a scene in which is is incarcerated and they mug him at 5'3. look for it, Rob. I wonder if there's any validity to it. Also, in the DVD extras it said he had to stand on a platform for a scene w/ his love interest because he was so short
