Set against a baroque cityscape, CYRANO is a symphony of romance and beauty that belies a heartbreaking love triangle. Cyrano de Bergerac (Peter Dinklage) can dazzle with wordplay and swordplay but convinced that his appearance renders him unworthy of love, he refuses to declare his feelings for his cherished friend Roxanne (Haley Bennett). When Roxanne falls in love at first sight with another, Cyrano – resigned to never being more than friends – instead devotes himself to helping her new suitor (Kelvin Harrison Jr) find the right words to win her heart. CYRANO is written by Erica Schmidt, adapted from her own stage play. The score is by Bryce and Aaron Dessner of The National, with songs from the Dessners, Matt Berninger and Carin Besser. The Voice and Soul Behind the Letters Peter Dinklage explores finding his CYRANO. Director Joe Wright and co-stars Haley Bennett and Kelvin Harrison Jr. discuss the unique skill and heart Peter brings to the role, in a performance Variety hailed as “simply sublime.” From Stage to Screen | Read the Screenplay The alchemical collaboration between writer Erica Schmidt and composers Bryce & Aaron Dessner of The National was key in transforming a classic play into a contemporary musical that holds true to its roots as a fairy tale romance. Director Joe Wright and Oscar-nominated production designer Sarah Greenwood discuss their 25-year collaboration and how they brought the classic romance of CYRANO to life, with a perfect union of design and color against the backdrop of a Baroque Sicily. See how Oscar-nominated costume designer Massimo Cantini Parrini blended past and present to create more than 700 costumes for the film, drawing inspiration from high fashion and 18th-century watercolors, and the romance of Watteau-inspired gowns for Roxanne, designed by Oscar-winner Jacqueline Durran. A breathtaking, behind-the-scenes look at how Oscar-nominated cinematographer Seamus McGarvey redefined the period genre with CYRANO. Watch McGarvey talk of the beauty of shooting the film on location in Sicily, capturing that transporting feeling that keeps us coming back to the cinema.
