Kevin Kline in Cyrano on PBS --

A very good translation, I thought, and no wonder -- translation is by Anthony Burgess (A Clockwork Orange)

It sounds like Shakespeare and totally different from the blah film versions I saw before.

Everything in this production is perfect.

Excellent movie--Merchant Ivory--Before the Rains--probably best movie set in India 1937--
