This film is a very good adaptation of the play of Edmond Rostand which is well known in the French speaking countries (some of us had to read the play in the French literature or some other had to learn some verses for the diction class).
Cyrano is an important film in the carer of Gérard Depardieu: an actor who has participated in a lot of films but many people remember his performance in this film.
But this film was also important for young French actors and actresses such as
Anne Brochet, Jacques Weber, Vincent Perez.Pierre Maguelon and Josiane Stoléru.
In conclusion this is a very good and pleasant comedy.
