Cyrano

*Please read our important information about our Covid-19 safety precautions before visiting.*

Joe Wright's (Atonement, Pride & Prejudice, Darkest Hour) reworking of the classic play. A man ahead of his time, Cyrano de Bergerac 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, Cyrano has yet to declare his feelings for her and Roxanne has fallen in love, at first sight, with Christian. 

Peter Dinklage brings a piercing commitment to the role and he is persuasive in the way that the likes of Gerard Depardieu and Steve Martin weren’t. Dinklage takes the title role: the poet, soldier and poignantly insecure would-be lover, finessing the original by showing that the problem is society’s attitude to Cyrano’s restricted height, rather than the traditional silly big nose. Dinklage truly holds the screen with his natural charisma.

"A lush, moving and emotionally rich story of longing, love and acceptance featuring a standout performance from Peter Dinklage" - Rotten Tomatoes.com
