DVD Reviews of Cyrano de Bergerac
DVD Review: A different Cyrano, but very good still...
Summary: 4 Stars
I saw this on Broadway just moments after the stagehands strike ended in December 2007. Kevin Kline takes a very understated approach to Cyrano, a character usually played with bravado and bluster. Such an approach might seem at odds with the character as written, but it really worked for me (it might be that I'm a Kevin Kline fan). His Cyrano was almost embarrassed by his acclaim, as if the people around him had built him up into a legend that he didn't want to be. Jennifer Garner and Daniel Sunjata, unfortunately, are just so-so. Roxane is such a cipher that it's hard to see what about her Cyrano is so attracted to, and without a strong personality in the role, she just kind of disappears.
I'm looking forward to seeing what was captured on video.
Now all they have to do is release "The Seagull" from Shakespeare in the Park 2001: Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Christopher Walken, Natalie Portman, John Goodman, Marcia Gay Harden, Stephen Spinella, Larry Pine, Debra Monk, directed by Mike Nichols. Best thing I've ever seen on a stage.
DVD Review: A wonderful version of the classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Kevin Kline gives an excellent performance as Cyrano. The performance, staging, are so good in fact that even the verses seem contemporary. My teen age children enjoyed it, and I bought it because my sixteen year old son saw half of it on vacation and wanted to see the whole thing.DVD Review: Incredible performance
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best performances I have ever seen. Wonderful story, but extremely sad at the end. I cannot express how highly I recommend this.DVD Review: An Absolute Must Have.
Summary: 5 Stars
A phenominal cast. Extremely entertaining. Kevin Kline is superb. Jennifer Garner and Chris Sarandon are great additions to this classic romance. Cyrano is a must have. You'll watch it over and over again and find new nuances everytime. A shining example of what the best of Broadway has to offer. Bravo for Cyrano!Cyrano de BergeracDVD Review: A TRULY FINE PERFORMANCE
Summary: 5 Stars
I was fortunate enough to see Jose Ferrer recreate his movie Cyrano de Bergerac in the 70's, live in Nyack, NY and spoke to Mr. Ferrer afterwards. Although he was the Sean Connery, in James Bond movies, of Cyranos, I must say that Kevin Kline and Jennifer Garner did a wonderful job as well. Their performance was much funnier than the original screen version. Jennifer Garner was alive and vibrant, which was missing from all other renditions.
