Cyrano's theme song is Kenny Roger's I don't need you


Cyrano's theme song is Kenny Roger's I don't need you, I heard this song and I was strucked in the heart. I found myself thinking of C and how much he needs love.

ain't that something, i was listening to his greatest hits while reading this, 80s comedies seem to age incredibly well, still while this isn't particularly funny it's a great story and really enjoyable flick, it gives you a good vibe, i could move into the atmosphere of this flick, what if all entertainment was this good natured, but what i mean is comedy has a way of aging poorly though the 80s really stand out, the 21st century comedy movies are not even funny contemporary and mainly just vulgar with a hollow story, i wonder how the last few decades will go down in history as entertainment quality, just to mention that area. seeing this topic i thought i'd tell you bbc has made radio adaptations of this story, not this particular movie but the story it's based on, and speaking of radio entertainment, the scene where martin and the kid are sitting on the roof top seemed inspired by the similar sort of scene in the twilight zone episode "the lonely", also available on "the twilight zone radio dramas", as the lead and the robot are watching the stars, by the way, some background shot here, and what a cool looking building with that ladder. there are at least two different front covers i came across of this, one gives a boring impression and the other suits better the mood of the movie and is actually the most memorable scene in it, funny enough neither contains roxanne (leading lady darryl hannah). you know i noticed something really weird, darryl hannah and the "other half of leading man" (the boob) somewhat looks and acts similar, as if they were siblings, think about it next time you watch this and see if you pick it up as well.

i broke the spells,
of all the womens,
free after all these years,
used to be a fool for one after another,
as grew older,
managed to break the chain,
from every one but madeleine,
as she increased her spell.
