Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Cyrano de Bergerac is a 1950 American film directed by Michael Gordon and produced by Stanley Kramer.It is a pretty faithful adaptation of the French play Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand. José Ferrer plays Cyrano, the witty poet, brave soldier, and master fencer, who has a chip on his shoulder because of his gigantic nose, which makes him doomed to a life without love, or so he believes. Cyrano's friend Le Bret points out that this is nonsense, reminding Cyrano of a buffet table server who is obviously besotted with him, but Cyrano believes he'll always be alone.The real reason Cyrano believes that he'll always be alone is that he really only has eyes for one woman: his beautiful cousin, Roxane. He is giddy with joy when Roxane asks him to come see her, thinking that she'll proclaim her love. However he is bitterly disappointed when she says she loves someone else, a soldier in Cyrano's unit, Christian de Neuvillette (William Prince). She asks Cyrano to look after him, and Cyrano wearily agrees. Eventually, Cyrano befriends Christian, and finds himself writing love letters to Roxane, the woman he wants, under his friend's name and on his friend's behalf.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })See also the 1990 French film. | |

Cyrano de Bergerac (1950) / int_444fdea2 | comment |
Balcony Wooing Scene: The original play is one of the iconic examples (along with Romeo and Juliet, anyway), so naturally it's included here, with Christian in the garden wooing Roxane up on her bedroom's balcony, while Cyrano, hidden, whispers lines. | |

Cyrano de Bergerac (1950) / int_48ca7c29 | comment |
Broken Ace: Cyrano, Renaissance man, legendary poet, duelist, soldier, philosopher, physicist, musician, playwright, novelist and excellent actor, who also is an ugly, writhing pile of Freudian Excuse, who systematically throws away every chance of success he has, would rather help some other guy get the girl he loves than confess to her, and assiduously kills anyone who mocks his enormous nose. | |

Cyrano de Bergerac (1950) / int_5532b579 | comment |
Acoustic License: An odd moment when Roxane is weeping over Christian's body, and Cyrano says out loud that he mourns too for his lost love (her), but that she "does not know...must never know." Roxane does not hear this even though Cyrano is sitting directly behind her. It's obviously an Aside Comment from the play that is somewhat awkward in a live-action film framing. | |
