Pretty good movie starring Peter Dinkage (the Imp on game of Thrones) about the life of Cyrano de Bergerac(sp?) and his love for Roxanne. Dinkage is a very good actor and the cast fit together nicely. I'm usually not into musicals but was surprised how much I liked this one. Was made in 2021 and came out this year. Don't know if it was released to the theaters or went directly to video?

It's nice to have a dwarf with a misshapen head playing the role of Cyrano. Previously Cyrano has been played by handsome men in makeup or Gerard Depardieu who, while not conventionally handsome, somehow attracts women as successfully as Ryan Reynolds does.

I like when Dinklage played a giant in Thor.

I was never a Game of Thrones viewer so Dinklage will always be the "You feeling strong? Call me elf, one more time!" guy.

He's handsome enough. But they gave him that ridiclous prosthetic nose. He could write and the nose probably played well during cunnilingus. Cyrano is supposed to be hideous.

Hollywood's idea of "ugly" is putting a pair of glasses on Aubrey Plaza.

Coincidentally the Imp was also supposed to be physically hideous and the scar on his face was supposed to be a lot more pronounced than it was portrayed in GoT. That’s how it goes…
