Rob, could you please add Monkeys, Go Home! to Chevalier’s credits?

Rob, could Chevalier please have 5’10.25”?
He quoted himself as “five feet ten” but you previously had him at 5’10.5” and there are many 5’11” listings for him. He also never looked under 5’10” in his early career, typically a touch more, even at times in his later career he could look well over 5’10”.

Editor RobHe didn't seem under 5ft 10, could have been one of those strong 5ft 10 types.

Rob, would you mind adding Chevalier to the French actors tag?
I would equally appreciate seeing Jean-Claude Brialy's induction there in the near future. I do feel that I have already provided ample photographic evidence for him across various pages...

Well, if Chevalier even claimed 5’10”, I guess it’s less debatable than 5’10.5”. Honest claim.

Rob, do you think that Charles Aznavour was really only 5'3" range?
As for Chevalier, he was practically only one inch shorter than Dean Jones in Monkeys, Go Home!, so 5'10.5" seems a good shout.

Looks a flat 5 ft 9 with Buccholtz and came here asking for a downgrade, but in fairness he was 73 when that film was shot and not impssible he'd lost 1.5 inches. I think I saw him in The Merry Widow from the early 30s a while back thought about 5 ft 10, perhaps 5 ft 10 flat would be better peak?
