5-0 out of 5 stars The Man Who Was Cyrano
I loved this book. It was informative, easy to read, and written in a clever way, revealing his life as though it were set on a stage. Sue Lloyd sheds some well deserved light on a great poet that has gone too long without the recognition owed to him. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars No Improvement
Although I am an Anthony Burgess fan, I find this translationto be nowhere near as good as the classic Brian Hooker translation.

4-0 out of 5 stars Fantastic
This is a geart version of Cyrano. It features Jose Ferrer in the title role of Cyrano. Unlike some other swashbucklers Jose can really fence. The fencing scenes are fantastic and all the actors work to bring the tragic story of Cyrano to life in an amazing way. The only gripe I have is with the sound, but this is a fantastci movie.


4-0 out of 5 stars Tale of Two Loves
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...or maybe it is in the ear of the beholder.

Jose Ferrer plays Cyrano de Bergerac, a witty, chivalrous swordsman who has a flair for quick quips and romantics. Cyrano's one insecurity is something he can do little about, his rather large nose, and this seems to make him reluctant to profess his love for a woman he desperately is in love with, Roxane. Roxane, however, has her love already set on another man (Christian) who has the looks that Cyrano has no hope of competing with.

In a classic story of lost love, and inner and outer beauty, the film Cyrano de Bergerac seems to highlight the idea that physical attraction can only go so far, and that sacrifice is a huge part of love. There is a significant point in the film when both major characters--Cyrano and Christian--have to sacrifice something. Christian's sacrifice in battle is parallel with Cyrano's sacrifice in trying to help Christian win the love of Roxane, and these sacrifices seem to underscore the various meanings of love in the film. While Roxane loves Christian for his outer handsomeness, it is the voice and words of Cyrano, unbeknownst to her, that she falls in love with. This seems to highlight the notion that physical attraction can only work so much magic before it falls flat, that there has to be something deeper.

Another interesting perspective is the two types of battles raging: both physical and emotional. The physical war that Cyrano and Christian fight in seems to coincide with the emotional battle within both of their hearts for Roxane. These seem to equate with both characters different kinds of wounds suffered: Cyrano (emotional, from the idea of not gaining Roxane's love) and Christian (physical, from being hurt in battle).

Clearly a sense of honor is there for Cyrano, and this makes the final climactic scene with Roxane perhaps the best scene in the film.

This is well-performed classic, albeit overlooked, shows that love has more than one dimension.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great version...but a problem with audio
I love this movie. I think that Jose Ferrer is great a Cyrano. My students also liked this version and it was great for showing the consolidation of characters and plot lines. However, the audio inconsistencies tended to be a problem. My students missed lines. On the plus side, they were quiet throughout the movie.

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Wit
This version of Cyrano de Bergerac is timeless.Jose Ferrer embodies the character of Cyrano in a way that Steve Martin's "Roxanne" version of the story never did.I highly recommend this movie for entertainment, as well as, disscusion of wit and humor during the Renescience. ... Read more

This is the famous 19th-century play about a great swordsman and poet with the unseemly large nose. Although he is feared by opponents, he cannot court the woman of his dreams, except through anonymously sent poems, which makes for a romantic and adventurous tale. ... Read more
