If you love heart wrenching tragedy, you can't help but treasure the story of Cyrano. This modern take will probably become every bit as much a classic as the original b/w version. Filled with wry humor and plenty of swashbuckling action, it is a tragic romance is perfect for those who favor bitter-sweet endings.

The Jose Ferrer version (not the only version, by the way) was a very great version; but this version is equally great. Depardieu definitely deserved the award nomination; he was absolutely superb in the role: he played the part with melo-dramatic abandon, just like the character of Cyrano himself. But this version may actually be superior, in that all the actors were superb in their respective roles; not one of them played below the potential of their respective characters. (p.s. For an updated take on the story line, check out "Roxanne" with Steve Martin ... also great.) Reviewed by Mario P.

This movie surprises me. I thought it was going to be another boring story set during the Renaissance, but I was wrong. And I almost decided to stop watching 10 minutes into the movie. However, the stunningly handsome Christiane (Vincent Perez) and the eloquent Cyrano (Gerald Depardieu) makes the movie worth watching.

This is a classic movie, and rightly so. This is a classic tale of love, war, honor, and embodies some of the best of the renaissance.
