I've waited for a release of this movie for twenty years. " BUT ", the waiting was invain. My old VCR (worn out) tape may not have as good a picture, but at least "it has all the words" !!!! This video skips the most important offencing words. What, is this show rated PG now when it comes to words like "Barbarian"? ( Before the duel at the theatre of Burgogne ). And further on it skips and goes mute in the most intricate parts of his verbal attacs. I am very sad and will have to keep searching for a complete rendition of this ever so romantic and amazing show.

I bought this as I am both fascinated and repelled by the British monarchy. The pomp and ceremony are quite interesting and way over the top (Christmas caroling to the queen's horses in the royal stables!). QE2 comes off as stodgy and not in touch with the real world. As an American, after viewing this DVD, I really cannot decide which is worse -- spending thousands of dollars for a toilet on a US government jet or having a guy on the government payroll whose entire career is dedicated to raising the flag once a week at the exact moment the Queen's limo is entering Windsor Castle. What a great gig! The volunteer bell ringers were also funny -- ringing away in honor of the birthdays of various members of the royal family. Very entertaining.

My opinion is that Cyrano stands alone. It is one of the best. The other, The Son of Monte Cristo, Not so much...

Both my husband and I were touched by the combined grandeur of the venue, the beauty of the voices and the spiritual power of the selections. This is what Christmas should be about.

"Television's Golden Age," the 1950s, gets that moniker because the best of that decade's live drama anthologies -- such as "Playhouse 90," "Studio One" and "Kraft Television Theater," featured innovative plays that made insightful comments about contemporary life.

Though "Enemy of the People" aired on National Educational Television (the precursor of PBS) in 1966, Arthur Miller's adaptation of the Ibsen classic feels like an extension of the "golden" era.

In the Norway of the 1880s, an idealistic doctor (James Daly of "Medical Center") discovers that water from a new spring is contaminated with deadly bacteria. Because the spring is expected to bring a solid tourist trade to this small town, his repeated attempts to convince the town's officials and citizens are met with ... Read More

When I first saw this movie, I found it most enjoyable. Now in 2008, it has lost some of its humour. However, it is still a good & very watchable movie - but it is no londer a "great" movie.

To all of you fantastic people who bought this version of Cyrano... please e-mail us via our website at marengofilms.com. We recalled this DVD months ago. Cyrano is a fantastic hero and we found a fantastic version which we paired with The Son of Monte Cristo... a far superior film to Captain Scarlett.

It would be our pleasure to furnish this new DVD to you free of charge... just send us your old Cyrano... we will include another DVD alongside Cyrano as our way of letting you know that we appreciate your business and would be humbled to keep you as a customer.

Cyrano would do no less and neither will we...
