American actress, known for appearing in films American Graffiti and The Man Who Fell to Earth. In an interview on blu-ray.com she said
"The first thing I realized is that Charlie [Martin Smith] was about 5'4" and I'm 5'7" so I thought, "Well, that's that, I'm not going to get this one," so I just kind of gave up and didn't really push in the audition."

@ Sandy Cowell - You do now!
@ Rob - It's a shame though.
The world is full of short men and tall women.

She's in the 5'6.5"-5'7" range , I guess.

@ Nik - I don't even know who Martin Smith is! π

Charles Martin Smith did look
5ft 4-5 in the film, I can see why she thought she might not have got the part.

Itβs a shame she didnβt get that one but it ainβt a shame that Rob has added her to celebheights! Candy so deserves this!

@ Rob - I'm sure Jenny will like it.

Seeing Candy and her candyfloss hair was all it took last night for me to finish 'The Man Who Fell to Earth'.
Thanks once again, Rob, for adding her!
Editor Rob
I don't think Jenny seen that movie, I may well rewatch it again with her.

Great choice of picture, Rob, from 'The Man Who Fell to Earth'! She had to carry David and kept on moaning at him that he was too thin. I didn't disbelieve that she could be 5ft7 because I kept comparing the two. Candy was also in Stephen King's 'Cat's Eye'.
That's exactly what I found for her when I checked out Candy's details - 5ft7. Rob approves, so that is what she gets.

Thanks Rob!

Compared to Bowie in that film they were in, it's possible she is between 5ft 6.5-7
