Cyrano

In 17th-century Verona, the brilliant and charismatic Cyrano de Bergerac is secretly in love with the beautiful and intelligent Roxanne. However, he believes his own physical appearance makes him unworthy of her love, and thus he helps his handsome but inarticulate friend, Christian, woo her with his own eloquent words. As Roxanne falls for the poetry she believes comes from Christian, Cyrano wrestles with his own feelings and the deception he has enabled.
