Cyrano de Bergerac (Blu-ray) Gerard Depardieu Anne Brochet (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Cyrano de BergeracCondition: NewDescription: Cyrano de Bergerac (Blu-ray) Directed by Jean-Paul Rappeneau Cyrano (Gérald Depardieu), a swashbuckling hero with a gift for verse, is in love with the beautiful Roxane (Anne Brochet) but fears his prominent nose would cause her to object his romantic advances. Instead he uses his poetic artistry to help a dashing but shallow suitor, Christian (Vincent Perez), who employs the words to which Cyrano longs to give voice. But will the object of their affection realise who she's really falling for? Cyrano de Bergerac is a spectacular and vibrant adaptation of Edmond Rostand's classic play, funny and touching in equal measure, and featuring English subtitles by author Anthony Burgess (A Clockwork Orange). Amid the lavish period design, Depardieu has never been better than as the swaggering scribe, delivering verve and pathos under Jean-Paul Rappeneau's vigorous direction. This classic of world cinema is presented here on Blu-ray in the UK for the first time.p> Special features * Full-length feature commentary by Ginette Vincendeau: the Kings College London professor on the film and its art-historical context * Interview with Gérard Depardieu (12 mins): the actor recalls making Cyrano de Bergerac * Interview with Jean-Paul Rappeneau (8 mins): the director discusses the influence of the 1923 version * Anthony Burgess with AS Byatt (1987, 58 mins): Burgess discusses his views on language and the arts with author and critic AS Byatt * Gérard Depardieu in Conversation (1987, 76 mins, audio only): the Cyrano de Bergerac star discusses his life and work, recorded on stage at the NFT * Image gallery * **FIRST PRESSING ONLY** Fully illustrated booklet featuring new writing on the film by Martin Hall France 1990 colour 138 minutes French language, with optional English subtitles original aspect ratio 1.66:1 Cert U BD50: 1080p, 24fps, 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio and 2.0 stereo audio (48kHz/24-bit), region BFormat: Blu-rayDirector: Jean-Paul RappeneauActor: Gerard Depardieu, Anne Brochet, Jacques Weber, Vincent PerezRating: BBFC UNo Of Discs: 1Run Time: 2 hours and 18 minutesRelease Date: 02/24/2020Studio: BfiSubtitle Language: EnglishEAN: 5035673013717Region Code: Blu-ray: B (Europe, AU, NZ, Africa...)Language: FrenchRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
