In the movie he disarms him and taps his nose, then walks away. In the play, Cyrano wounds Valvert ( possibly fatally) at the end of their duel.Although, while the French trailers of the time did feature these a lot, the heart of the film is still in the dialogue scenes, which outnumber the action ones by a good margin. Actionized Adaptation: By virtue of not having the same limitations as stage versions, the film turns the two Sword Fights of the play into swashbuckler-worthy scenes and even adds a big fight at the Porte de Nesle that counted as Offscreen Moment of Awesome in the play otherwise, plus the war scene.
Tropes specific to this film version of the play include: To this day, it also holds the distinction of being one of only a small percentage of films to maintain a perfect 100% rating on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes. In 2010, it was ranked #43 in Empire's "The 100 Best Films Of World Cinema" list. The film is considered as one of the most faithful and lavish Period Piece adaptations of the play to the big screen to this day, and won a number of awards including the César for Best Film and Best Actor (for Depardieu), and the Oscar for Best Costume Design. 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, terribly 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.
