Directed by Joe Wright, Cyrano comes to the movie theaters once again with a different perspective. With Darkest Hour, Anna Karenina, and Pride & Prejudice on his resume promise the new version of a classic story resplendent with songs and dancing will consume audiences.
Wright’s style envelops us in a symphony of emotions with music, beauty and romance. Cyrano reimagines the timeless tale of a heartbreaking love triangle. Cyrano de Bergerac, played by Peter Dinklage, a man ahead of his time, dazzles others with ferocious wordplay at a verbal joust or with exceptional swordplay in a duel.
Yet, convinced that his appearance renders him unworthy of the love of a devoted friend, the luminous Roxanne, played by Haley Bennett, Cyrano has not declared his feelings for her. And Roxanne has fallen in love with Christian, played by Kelvin Harrison, Jr.
Ben Mendelsohn also stars in this classic story.
