I saw Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise while they were filming Rain Man. I'm 6'1". Hoffman is close to a midget. A really nice guy who sat in a lawn chair outside all day and watched everything. Signed autographs etc. Cruise was a little taller than Hoffman, but still really short, and he spent all of the time he wasn't actually filming in his trailer. Walked from trailer to camera with security guys around him.
That being said... and he being all the things he is... I still generally like his movies.
Russell Crowe seems pretty masculine to me, not a metrosexual, but who knows? Same with Mel Gibson..I think they’re on the short side, though..at any rate, they’re talented...
