TnxI can think of several. There is a 2015-2016 cable TV show called "My Giant Life," available through Youtube, that, in Reality TV format, examines the romantic, school, and job challenges faced by a few young women who range from 6 foot 6 to 6 foot 9 in height. The show includes endless height comparisons. The circus epic The Greatest Show on Earth (1952) included the 7 foot 6 Gilbert Reichert in the cast. The 1998 movie My Giant is built around height comparisons with a 7-7 Roumanian basketball player. In Pee-Wee's Big Adventure (1985), Pee-Wee Herman is pursued by an enraged giant.Like Mike (2001) features Roger Morrissey as the giant friend of a 13 year-old sports prodigy. A height comparison of a very different kind appears in Shenandoah (1965), in which the actor (who I think was college-age) playing James Stewart's youngest and favorite son seems to be about a foot shorter than Stewart. There is also an Andre the Giant biopic of the last 6 or 7 years starring Daniel Gilchrist (a/k/a Daniel Harrison) that was not distributed widely but is, I believe, to be found in video.
