Who is Al Pacino? How tall is Al Pacino? I always thought, "When's Al going to star in one of Quentin's films? When I've seen the minute, movie, I'll fill in Al's boxes. The teenagers share my birthday, the 25th January, and with parents like that, I bet they're intelligent and stunning!
We have a distorted sense of height because people constantly measure themselves with shoes on and round up as they please. I am a dead 5'6" and It's very rare that i get towered over.
Even wrestlers listed as high 6s and low 7s have been caught at weak 6'4"s. You 'merely' need talent, and Al Pacino has that in abundance, coercing me into thinking that people into thinking that there's a soft side to absolutely everybody, regardless of his profession. When he told Johnny Depp that he loved him, in the most respectful of ways, when Johnny refused to leave the hospital when his son had overdosed, I was welling up all over. In fact, I'm doing so again just at the thought of that scene.
Yes, that film has everything; emotional turbulence, excitement, the affect that the 'brotherhood' can have on its members and those involved on the family members - yes, everything. I rate it more highly than I do 'The Godfather' trilogy, which I bought one Boxing Day, because some TV channel happened to be showing the trilogy during the course of three days. I was so impressed with the first one that I simply knew that the others wouldn't be a let down.
They certainly weren't. I saw 'Scarface' at the cinema when I was 22, but I didn't understand it one iota. I should have done my homework first! Also in The Godfather with Diane Keaton, he looks flat cm. You live in a tall area! It's just like saying a woman of 5ft2 isn't petite The great Al gets 5ft6 peak and 5ft5 now.
He's definitely an actor for whom his height, or lack thereof, did absolutely nothing in preventing him from achieving the badass roles, and doing them full justice. Not sure if he still holding well at 5'5 now or shorter. I have seen him in person. Presumably in a suit with dress shoes on, rather than lifts. On a small man shoe size 8 or less I can't see the heel being more than 1.
Lifts for the shot? He looks 5 ft 4 to 5 ft 5 against other people in the rest of the film. Interestingly Di Niro looks 5 ft 9. Daniel T. Editor Rob. He didn't care if they were in shots. That's Al. There was at least two inches between him and the 5'8'' Marte Keller. Peak height 5ft6. They put him with Pfeiffer in Scarface and he did fine with her and she was about same height. Those cuban heels helped him out in that film though, you could see it clearly in some scenes. Strong 5'5 peak.
You serious? I get he's short, but he's standing next to a 5'7. I greatly disagree. Even 5'4 sounds a little generous, but I'll put that as my guess to not go far off the average. He does have bad posture and a wide frame, so that may add to his short appearance. I agreed Al was in the 5'5"-5'6" range in his prime and I said he still looks closer to 5'5" than 5'4" to me, but I only guessed it was possible he's slightly below 5'5" at 78 since he didn't look much above it a decade ago.
However, I agree that he still looks like he'd measure around 5'5". That's why I noted that some short men don't lose that much height. Angus: Come on, that's only the height he claims. De Niro was barely 5'8" a decade ago, if that. Nowadays, De Niro is no taller than 5'7. The height difference could vary in pics 10 years ago when they did Righteous Kill: Click Here. Plenty of pics online look 5'5" - 5'5. He's only below 5'5" with loose posture, and he rarely stands upright, and that's what might be throwing you off.
Trust me, I know 5'5" when I see it. Gene Hackman was tall at around 6'2", but he truly looked enormous next to him in Scarecrow and I suspect the difference was often minimized.
Good film, btw with great performances by Pacino and Hackman. He was definitely in the 5'5" - 5'6" range. Short height, but not a height that will kill you. I think this listing is correct for the most part. I give him upper 5'5" in his peak, good enough to get to 5'7" with the correct shoes. There's no way he would get his roles if he was below 5'5". His height is borderline, but still normal While he's definitely not above 5'5" flat today, he hasn't lost a ton of height.
Here he is with cm Jessica Chastain in heels in late Click Here Click Here She always wears heels since she admits she wants to be taller and her shoes that day weren't completely flat on the front so I'd bet at least 8 cm. Al did go up a bit on one foot for some photos: Click Here Click Here but his boots don't look unusually thick or look to have lifts to me and his posture isn't great so I still think he'd measure closer to 5'5" than 5'4".
Some men well below average do at least maintain their height well as they age. Look at his movies in his prime. I would downgrade him 0. The describe of Al peak being about 5'7 was def a shoes height. Despite my shortest friend was 5'4. I think quarter inch over 6 foot for Walken in his peak really looks better. Rob, what do you think about these photos? So this is incorrect data. Yes, I don't think I've ever seen a police report NOT listing a celeb as comfortably taller than they are.
Bieber 5'9", Jackson 5'11", Chris Kattan 5'8", etc It's a costume worn by Pacino in Danny Collins. Not sure if this is a good indication of his height more recently and what his max height would've been.
Sport Coat measuring 16 in and the pants are a size 28x Usually, they ask you or take it off your driver's license, but they might stand you in front of a height chart and guess, but you'd almost always have shoes on in that instance. He already looked closer to 5'5" a decade ago so it's highly doubtful he's taller at 77 years old. Weak 5'6" range peak is probable, maybe even 5'5. Height, I would say 5'7" prime, maybe. He's closer to the camera and better posture but I still think Pacino was never over a strong 5'5.
Pacino and Brando might have had lifts or a box in a few scenes , but Cann had lifts the whole movie. Now, about weak 5'5-strong 5'4. At his peak and with the right footwear he could look 5ft 7. Today I would guess at Pacino did look at least 5'6" to me with 5'11" Joe Mantegna, but how tall was Wallach in the film? Wallach seems like he could have been 5'7" peak and when I met him closer to two decades after the film, he looked closer to 5'3" in person with a cane and then in my photo, he's around my eye level, though I'm leaning.
I don't know if that gives ua any indication of his height in Godfather 3, but I'd be surprised if he was above 5'6". Imo, Pacino likely topped out as more of a weak 5'6" guy and was probably no more than 5'5" a decade ago. I imagine he and Dustin Hoffman have always been close in size. Al is the best actor to me, but that was Hollywood height.
He looked closer to 5'5" at times in The Godfather. I think it's likely he was even a shade under 5'6" in his prime, especially when you see some of the wider shots in a film like Scarecrow with Gene Hackman. He was already looking around 5'5" flat or slightly over a decade ago so a bit under that would have to be possible, though he doesn't seem like a guy who has lost a lot of height for his age.
Also, was a peak height of 5ft 7 flat possible for him? And at the same event, here's a couple of full pics of Al and 5'9" Andy Garcia: Click Here Click Here If Andy isn't getting too much of a camera advantage in both pics, then there's about a 4 inch difference. At best, I see Al in the I don't like to make too many assumptions, but if Al was even that tall then dropping slightly more in the decade since to a flat 5'5" is pretty conservative.
I have a few recent Pacino films I have to watch, but I do think he could still look 5'5" with Christopher Walken when they did Stand Up Guys 5 years ago. I also agree on peak since even Rob said that considering Al was getting a good 2" boost from his Cuban heels in Scarface, he was looking 5'6" max, which could reasonably be interpreted as a weak 5'6" and in The Godfather, Al looked more 5'5", maybe cm with 5'8.
So cm peak is fair, imo. Maybe the average height guesses are more appropriate for him although he is close to 5'6 for his peak and probably 5'5"ish today. His 70s run through Scarface was truly remarkable and even his later career had some outstanding performances like Donnie Brasco. No lifts, at least there, but then he's getting about as much as a decent elevator shoe anyway.
Honestly, they don't look much different than my 2" Cuban heels. I did notice that about feeling taller too, at least at first. Boots like that or cowboys do force my posture up more. He's an actor at times who can make you forget he's quite short It doesn't look like Al has an extra lift in that sitting shot, but it does look like they stood Al on a higher or step or had Michelle with one foot on a lower one for the wedding photos: Click Here They also have Michelle slouching at times during that scene.
There were definitely tricks employed to make him look taller. I wouldn't think there was anything in Pacino's Scarface heels, they look just like a solid big cuban-heel, maybe 2 inches of actual height.
Also, when wearing a heel like that, I believe it can help you feel as if you stand taller Both wearing flat shoes. Real short actor. I doubt he lost anything worth speaking of by Scarface as he was 42 when filming started and had just turned 43 less than 2 weeks before filming wrapped.
A article appearing in many papers such as Daily Press wasn't buying 5'7": "He is slight and shorter than the propaganda about him being 5 feet 7 inches tall; you wouldn't, however, want to refer to him as Small Al. I understand 5'6" for him, but I've always thought he fell short of the mark. Both Pacino and Hoffman seemed to do better than average with height loss. In 'Scarface' he was 5 ft 5,5 current or 5 ft 6 peak? Click Here He could actually look only 5'5" with 5'9. Marlon Brando who was about cm looks about 3 inches taller than Al in pictures and in the first Godfather film.
Here are a couple more from that photoshoot: Click Here Click Here I think just boots with high socks now that I see other angles.
Poor Al, the Daily Mail does what they do with Tom Cruise and accuse him of wearing elevators when I think he'sjust wearing a sneaker for foot support then a boot without even much of a heel: Click Here Click Here I don't think Al walks around in lifts outside of films. He had boots with bigger heels for a lot of roles which also happened to be in style during most except say Devil's Advocate and undoubtedly lifts for some Al mentioned the same exchange with Coppola about his elevator shoes verbatim in a Playboy interview Editor Rob.
Click Here Editor Rob. Pacino definitely seemed shorter than guys like Henry Winkler and Ben Stiller. Pacino always looked well below average even with large heels in many films and had a smaller frame, but I also certainly agree he's one of the greats. Must be a thrill to see him perform in person. Peak was more likely around 5'5".
One of the greatest songs ever. Pacino was the second male actor, after Fitzgerald, to have been nominated for both a Best Supporting Actor and a Best Actor Oscar in the same year; the third is Foxx, who was nominated for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor in In , he became the 18th performer to win the Triple Crown of Acting.
During the making of The Recruit , he met and became close friends with Colin Farrell. He went on to call Farrell the most talented actor of his generation. Stopped a two-pack-a-day smoking habit to protect his voice In the mids, he had been smoking four packs of cigarettes a day. He now only occasionally smokes herbal cigarettes. Carlito's Way proved another gangster classic, as did the epic crime drama Heat directed by Michael Mann and co-starring Robert De Niro. A mixture of technical perfection he plays a blind man and charisma, the role was tailor-made for him, and remains a classic.
The next few years would see Pacino becoming more comfortable with acting and movies as a business, turning out great roles in great films with more frequency and less of the demanding personal involvement of his wilder days. He lifted his self-imposed exile with the striking Sea of Love as a hard-drinking policeman. This marked the second phase of Pacino's career, being the first to feature his now famous dark, owl eyes and hoarse, gravelly voice.
Revolution endured an endless and seemingly cursed shoot in which equipment was destroyed, weather was terrible, and Pacino fell ill with pneumonia. Constant changes in the script further derailed the project. The Revolutionary War-themed film, considered among the worst films ever made, resulted in awful reviews and kept him off the screen for the next four years.
Returning to the stage, Pacino did much to give back and contribute to the theatre, which he considers his first love. Pacino took on another vicious gangster role and cemented his legendary status in the ultra-violent cult film Scarface , but a monumental mistake was about to follow.
Unfortunately, this would signal the beginning of a decline in his career, which produced flops like Cruising and Author! He faltered slightly with Bobby Deerfield , but regained his stride with And Justice for All , for which he received another Academy Award nomination for Best Actor. However, instead of taking on easier projects for the big money he could now command, Pacino threw his support behind what he considered tough but important films, such as the true-life crime drama Serpico and the tragic real-life bank robbery film Dog Day Afternoon He was nominated three consecutive years for the "Best Actor" Academy Award.
Coppola was successful but Pacino was reportedly in constant fear of being fired during the very difficult shoot.
