Tom [Selleck] is so big and so manly, he could, you know, just grab me. I'm 6-foot-2, but he's got big bones. I was like Vivien Leigh to his Clark Gable.

Just watched a terrific performance from Kevin, My Old Lady, 2014.
Looked around 6’1”, to be fair.

Jug, I think Connery possibly dropped a tiny bit (I'd still place him roughly at 6ft2 in the 80's-90's), Caine maybe not so much even though he's not much younger than Connery (still think peak Sean had the edge like a decade earlier in Man Who Would Be King), Moore likely at lost some by then as he was the oldest.
I think there's no harm in giving Kline 6ft2 peak

He seemed slightly taller than Michael Caine at the 89 Oscars. It’s weird because Connery and Moore were both about an inch shorter than Caine when they all appeared together to present the award. I would place Kline at a solid 6’2 for a peak. I guess Connery had lost a little height by then. Moore was never more than 6’1. Caine was probably 6’1.5 still at that point.

He had 3in on Tom Berenger in The Big Chill, a 6ft1 flat Kline puts Tom at 5ft10 tops.
6ft2 peak, 6ft1 now

I recently rewatched Silverado, and strangely Klein, who I'd always seen listed as 188, was almost exactly the same height as Kevin Costner, if not a hair shorter???
Both men were wearing cowboy boots with similar heels, so one can only assume Kline's true height was shorter than his claim?
He also appeared only a tad taller than peak 185.4 listed Richard Jenkins, who was also leaning slightly during their scene.
What do you think Rob?

Editor Robhalf inch is going to look quite close, but could Kline just be flat 6ft 1...I'm not as sure, but yeah he might appear it at times.

Peak was in 187.5-188 cm range currently he’s 186 cm when I was watching 1985 Silverado what I found striking that the cast is mostly 6 foot + enjoyed watching a tall cast movie !

Well, in my opinion 6'1.75" is a better option for Kline's peak height. In 1999, Kline looked taller than Will Smith: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
The full 6'2" is the most I would argue for him. Rob, I think Kline should get an upgrade.

Looked pretty much the way a 6ft2 guy should in the Big Chill. 2in below Goldblum (in peak form) and about 3in taller Tom Berenger...and of course eye to eye with William Hurt
Rob, quite honestly I’d give that to him as his peak

When receiving his oscar for "A Fish Called Wanda" in 1988 he was noticeably slightly taller than Michael Caine. I think it likely his peak height was 6'2", on this rare occasion I disagree with Rob.

berta, I agree with that. If he wasn't 6ft2 he had to have been close, like within a fraction of it
Peak: 187.3cm
Today: 185.4cm
Looking at that recent enough photo w/h Cary Elwes still around 6ft1 range

Wow I thought he was taller than this? I would've said 6'2" peak height, and IF he's lost any height, which I'm not convinced he has, 6'1.5" absolute lowest today?

Hey Rob, how much do you think the Alexander Technique improves for height? Say I am a relatively fit guy. If I do the Alexander Technique can I get an improvement in height? (.25-1 inch) vs standing up straight like most people usually do in military position?

Editor RobIt will help if your spine isn't in good alignment, but if you have good posture to begin with, then maybe it won't do anything for your standing height.

i agree with the commnet about him and ford. well he was not 189 tall at peak but at best 188 cm (i think) But he was 1,5 inch taller than ford in there pictures together. har to beleive there was only littel over half inch beetween these to guys at peak. I can buy 187,5 for kline peak after he did the alexander thecnicue and was maybe barely 187 before.

Kline looked taller than Sean Connery, Michael Caine, and Roger Moore at the 1989 Oscars. I would say a strong 6'2 at peak. He also held up pretty well next to John Cleese, who was 6'5.

Actually in the picture above he seems more a 6'0.25-0.5" guy, but probably Elwes is closer to the camera so has a small advantage...however I do not think he's a full 6'1 guy...no doubt about his 6'1.5" peak

Not much of gap between a strong 5"11 and a flat 6"1. Would like to have seen Elwes in more films as a lead and his height fits the bill in the world of Clooney, crowe and Di Caption.

Arch, you do know that he's 67? 1in loss at that age is common. I won't argue with you about his current height. He does look 6ft1 range now. But going back 20-30 years I think it's fair to say that was 6ft2. He wasn't dwarfed by Jeff Goldblum in The Big Chill and was eye to eye with William Hurt.

+ Rampage, yes I've seen Sophie's Choice and Dave scroll down the page I even mention Sophie's Choice. I agree he could look a full 6'2" times and I posted that he looked a full 6'2 in In and Out with Tom Selleck. Cleese though would have to be nearer 6'6" though if Kline is 6'2" which peak he could looks at times granted but I think he was more a solid 6'5" er.

Yeah arch, he probably never reached 6'2" in the afternoon or night.
I think this listing is fair, too. In the big chill he looke a bit taller than William Hurt but however noticeably shorter than Jeff Goldblum. In a fish called Wanda and fierce creatures, Cleese had at least 2,5" but in wild wild west he was as tall as will smith.
6'1.5" when he wa young and 6'1" today is perfect for Kevin.

Arch, you obviously haven't seen Sophie's Choice, The Big Chill or Dave. He towered over Meryl Streep and held his own with taller actors like Jeff Goldblum (6ft4½) and Frank Langella (6ft3).
Besides, we're talking about the days when the guy had a career.

Not a chance of a full 6'2" next to John Cleese in Fish Called Wanda. He could look near it at times but I think this listing is accurate. Cleese looked near 4 inches taller though.

186-87 looked impossible in Last Vegas now. He had about 4 inches on De Niro I'd say he's more 6' range now. He's definitely not even close to 6'2" seeing him with Morgan Freeman.

Good grief that Jeff Goldblum pic though he looks 184cm tops LOL!! Which is crazy because Goldblum and Selleck are supposed to be the same height and Goldblum seems 1-2 inches taller than how he looked next to Selleck in that photo. Goldblum looks easily 6'5" in that photo...

He did actually look a full 6'2" next to Tom Selleck and Matt Dillon in In and Out. I'd lean much more on weak 6'2" than strong 6'1", unlike Will Smith and Jim Carey, I don't think you could argue he is 6'1" or lower. Perhaps its time I watched Fish Called Wanda again.

he looked very small next a legit 6ft4in/193 cm Jeff Goldblum

He also barely looks shorter than 6'3.5"-6'4" Tom Selleck, 2 inches max.

I have no clue why I thought he was 5'10". It might have had something to do with his body proportions (which seem to be pretty average) and the fact that the poster to A Fish Called Wanda depicted him as being under six feet. But re-watching A Fish Called Wanda, he definitely looks 6'2". He had quite a few inches on the 5'10.5" Michael Palin and held up well against the 6'5" John Cleese and the 6'4.5" Stephen Fry.

Just re-watched Dave (for the first time in years) and he looks just a bit shorter than Sigourney Weaver (6'3" in heels) when she's in heels and taller than her when both are in flats. He looks close in height to Frank Langella but I have to say next to even six footers like Charles Grodin and Ving Rhames he looks only about an inch taller

He's a solid 6.1.25" (1.86 m) at his peak and probably near 6'2" early in the morning! Today i belive he's shorter! I met it in 1988 and he was tall precisely like me (1.88 m in morning and 1.86 in the evening)!

Seen him once signing autographs he did not appear 6'2. Mabey just 6' at most 6'.5, he was as clear as day live in the flesh and he was not a man of 6'2 height. People have you seen him in person... this fella is NOT 6'2!

this height seems correct, tho I wonder why klein made a comment about how tall Ryan Renalds was in the movie Definitely, Maybe when in fact Renalds is only 6'2 1/2, an inch taller than him. hmmm....

This guy looks 6'1" to me. I can see people thinking he's taller, though, what with his freakish posture (seriously, this guy's spine is perfectly straight - it just doesn't look natural).

If people say he is 6'2 or a bit under I believe...to Talker down there...it is most likely that you are not a legit 6'1...lots of people who are in actuality a tad under 6' would claim to be 6'1 just to be taller than that magical 6' mark...I used to claim I was 6'1 even tho I am really only 6' 1/2 (close enough if you ask me)

I love Kline. I think he is 6`1. He looks clearly shorter than 6`4 or 6`5 guys such as Goldblum, Selleck, Glover or Cleese. I saw the beginning of The big chill the other day and he didn´t look much taller than Tom Berenger. I don`t think he reaches the 6`2 mark.
