‘ I met Franco years ago and I remember he was surprisingly a lot shorter than I expected. I’m 5’5″, he wasn’t much taller than me. It was so much of a shock that his height was the first thing my friend and I commented on after Franco left. 5’10” in his dreams, but it’s hard to say how tall. His whole frame was smaller I would have thought too.’
