Mia Farrow, precisely 5ft 3 (160 cm) tall, embodied a delicate, pixie-like elegance that defined her iconic Hollywood image and amplified her on-screen vulnerability.
Her petite 5'3" stature was central to her breakthrough as the tormented Rosemary in Rosemary's Baby (1968), where it heightened the character's fragility amid horror.
- The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985): Her 160 cm frame lent whimsy to the dreamlike romance.
- Hannah and Her Sisters (1986): Enhanced her portrayal of introspective, slender sophistication.
- Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989): Complemented her nuanced, diminutive presence in Woody Allen's ensemble.
- Death on the Nile (1978): Stood out strikingly among taller co-stars in the Agatha Christie adaptation.
Farrow's exact height fueled her waifish allure across decades, from John and Mary (1969) to Alice (1990), making her a timeless symbol of ethereal beauty.
