Publish date: 2024-06-12
American actor best remembered for roles in films such as It's a Wonderful Life, Mr Smith Goes to Washington, Vertigo, Rear Window, The Philadelphia Story, Harvey, Destry Rides Again, The Shop Around the Corner, The Naked Spur and Anatomy of a Murder. In a 1988 article it mentioned "Stewart looks even taller than his 6-foot-3-inch frame. 'I used to be 6-foot-4, but I'm shrinking'"
[On trying for the role of Chang, in film The Good Earth] I was 6-feet-3, and I weighed 138 pounds. They must have thought I looked as though I'd just survived a famine. So they slanted my eyes, gave me a bald wig, with a queue, and a pair of Oriental pants. Paul Muni looked at me and said, 'That's a big one for a Chinese.' So I kneeled down in a trench to match Muni's height. But I lost the job, and I haven't tried to play a Chinese since.
