Cyrano
- Commentary: Under construction, although, I must mention, I just acquired this film today (6/18/2022) and I'm really looking forward to spending the afternoon with it, so expect a write-up of it soon.
By the way, in addition to the review linked to the title of this post, yes, from RogerEbert.com, the site also published this interesting interview with director Joe Wright. In it Mr. Wright talks about, among other subjects, the many adaptations of this nineteenth century play based on the life of a seventeenth century French novelist, playwright, epistolarian, and duelist.
