how tall was ginger rogers
You state that Ginger Rogers is 5' 4.5. The maximum height I've ever seen for her heels in the dance sequences is 2, maybe less. Yet in every dance sequence there seems to be only .5 to 1 difference in their height. 5' 7 to 5' 7.5 max. If he was 5' 9 then Ginger must be nearly 5' 7.
