I was too shy and gawky and insecure about my height. I just kept creeping up. I tell my agent, 'If it's a movie with Al Pacino, don't even send me for an audition.'...I haven't [had a co-star stand on a box], but I've taken my shoes off. I took my shoes off with Anthony Hopkins in the dance scene (Nixon), and I think he might have had just a little lift in his shoes.
I was a cheerleader at one point, but in adolescence, I felt like a nerd. I sang in the glee club, took up the cello...I grew to five foot ten and was insecure around boys; I didn't date until I was 20.
-- Savvy (1988)

I always assumed that she was 5'10 at her peak height, now with age and gravity I think she is 5'9.5. She looks gorgeous for her age, I thought she was at least 10 years younger than she realy is. Also she is a brillant actress.

Very attractive even at her age. And a great actress.
Easily 5'10". She towered over most of the men in the Bourne movies.

Not the best picture of her, but a good looking (and tall) woman for over 50.

She looked quite tall to me in upside of anger. I'd say at least 5'10.
