Life is tough for Cary's character as he is pulled either way by Rita Hayworth and Arthur.

Especially with Stewart I think she looks a solid foot shorter.

Great addition. 1`60 is fair for her. He was a small lady. One of my favorite actresses. The films mentioned above are great.

She did not have the most beautiful face, was short, had a squeaky voice and could seem moody, but she nonetheless was almost irresistibly likeable and attractive in her heyday. She had a way of making seem leading men like Gary Cooper, James Stewart and Cary Grant were were hopeless up against her!

I thought she already had a page! Good addition. 5'4.5" is conceivable as her height in heels.

Editor Rob so did I, but apparently never got round to adding her.
