In Toronto in the early 1960s I got on a hotel elevator with Liz Taylor and Richard Burton (he was doing Hamlet onstage at the time). I was stunned into speechlessness not only by their seemingly miraculous presence but also by (a) how short they both were, and (b) how large their heads seemed to be in proportion to their bodies. This second quality may be something that (cinematic) anthropologists can speculate about.
