Cyrano

Joe Wright (the award-winning director of Atonement) envelops our screens in a symphony of music, romance, and beauty in Cyrano - a re-imagining of Edmond Rostand's timeless play of a heartbreaking love triangle.

A man ahead of his time, Cyrano de Bergerac (Peter Dinklage) dazzles whether with ferocious wordplay at a verbal joust or with brilliant swordplay in a duel. But, convinced that his appearance renders him unworthy of the love of a devoted friend - the luminous Roxanne (Haley Bennett) - Cyrano has yet to declare his feelings for her. However Roxanne has fallen in love, at first sight, with Christian (Kelvin Harrison, Jr.) - a man of dashing looks but lacking a way with words.

Together, the two men hatch a plan to capture the heart of Roxanne with Cyrano scripting every romantic word for Christian to say. But this plan, as they find, can't last for long...
