Adaptational Wimp: In the play, Roxane goes through the Spanish lines entirely by herself, charming her way through their troops with no trouble.Christian gets to save Roxane from the Spanish, meaning that he does one genuinely heroic thing for her.But Valvert picks his sword up and charges Cyrano while his back is turned, and so Cyrano ends up wounding him through legit physical self-defense instead of just a duel over honour.
#Cyrano de bergerac film 1945 movie
In the movie he disarms him and taps his nose, then walks away.
In the play, Cyrano runs Valvert through at the end of their duel. Tropes specific to this film version of the play include: Seeing an opportunity to vicariously declare his love for Roxane, Cyrano decides to help Christian. Christian however, despite his good looks, is tongue-tied and clueless when speaking with women, lacking Cyrano's talent when it comes to improvise poetry. Soon, he finds out that Roxane has become infatuated with Christian de Neuvillette, a dashing new recruit to the Cadets de Gascogne (the military unit in which Cyrano is serving). However, he does not believe she will requite his love because he considers himself physically unattractive, due to his overly large nose. He is madly in love with his cousin, the beautiful Roxane. In 17th century Paris, Cyrano de Bergerac is an improvisatory poet and swordsman with a large nose of which he is self-conscious, but pretends to be proud. It stars Gérard Depardieu as Cyrano, Vincent Perez as Christian de Neuvillette, Anne Brochet as Roxane and Jacques Weber as Count Antoine de Guiche. The 1990 film adaptation of Edmond Rostand's stage play Cyrano de Bergerac, directed by Jean-Paul Rappeneau.
