Katharine doesn’t half look like Anne Boleyn in the painting of her ancestor in ‘The Legacy’!
The white pussy seems too sweet to be true and I think he or she is a witch’s familiar. I saw this when I was very young and it scared the rats out of me!
I sure do need a copy…….
5ft3. That’s what I read in my teen mags! Less now, no doubt.

I've stood next to her.. 5"1" MAX! She is teeny, tiny.

@ Nik - Katharine looks tiny in 'The Legacy' and to be cast as Dustin Hoffman's girlfriend in 'The Graduate', the film makers must surely agree that the lady is indeed on the petite side, Nik!
@ Mary - What a sweet comment! 😉💐

I grew up watching katherine and Sam Elliot movies and have enjoyed all of their movies. I like them have been in love and married to the same guy for 35 years and l can see they love each other very much. I wish them many many more years together and in love. God Bless.

I remember Katherine as a young girl in 'The Graduate' and then some years later, she starred in a film called 'The Legacy' which I just HAD to see as it starred Roger Daltrey of the Who. (My first idol!)
I loved her pretty long hair! It had so many shades in it of blonde AND brown, and it sure looked natural, or at most sun-kissed!
They show 'The Legacy' every so often on the 'Horror' channel, in case anyone is interested! You can see she's petite in it as she's a fair chunk smaller than Roger, who was then 5ft7, and a lot smaller than the other actors, who included the scary Charles Grey, from 'The Devil Rides Out'!
I can definitely go along with 5ft3 for her peak height.

Thanks for adding. I think this is arguable for her, sometimes she could look higher but I think that's more to do with camerawork and heels. I think in any still with a guy over six feet, she looks pretty fairly dwarfed,

Your a top man Rob. Other well known internet sites have her at 166 - A quick look on google images tells us that's nonsense.

Requested her a while back. Often get her mixed up with Samantha Eggar. Oh also add Games Rob, that's quite good, with James Caan.
