Jon Finch, standing at an exact 5ft 10 (177.8 cm), commanded the screen with his imposing height in iconic roles. His stature lent a powerful presence to Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy, where he portrayed the menacing killer, and Roman Polanski's Macbeth (1971), amplifying the tragic king's authority.
This height perfectly suited his Shakespearean stage work and films like The Vampire Lovers, Death on the Nile, Kingdom of Heaven, and The Final Programme, enhancing his versatile image as a brooding, formidable actor.
