Watched Cyrano (2021) last night and I cannot get over the moment where the soldiers/guards begin to sing “Wherever I Fall”.

I have a wife, I haven’t seen. Since lilacs bloomed in Saint-Hippolyte,

she always wears them in her hair,

she let’s them fall down everywhere.

I can see her in the glowing light dressing without a sound.

I promised I’d be home all right

But I gotta lay this body down

So take this letter to my wife

And tell her that I loved my life

And tell my boys, the Lord he found me.

When I say their names out loud, they’re all around me.

Tell them not to cry at all.

Heaven is wherever I fall.

and this:

I have a girl, I think I love her

Should have told her, instead I told her mother

I gave her chocolates, I bought a ring

But I never told her anything

But I can see her in every detail now

Turning in my mind

I barely knew that girl at all

But I will love her till the end of time

So take this letter to my girl

Tell her that I saw the whole world

Say that right before I fell

I said her name out loud: Isabel

Tell her not to cry at all

Heaven is wherever I fall

…and this:

I have a father, he isn’t well

Thinks he might be going to hell

He was a sinner, he liked to fight

So I don’t know, he might be right

I can see him every Sunday morning

Diving into the fray

He wasn’t one of God’s best men

But I loved him anyway

So take this letter to him, please

Tell him I can’t wait to see him

I went in first, I rang the bell

I called his name out loud and I gave ‘em hell

So tell him not to cry at all

Heaven is wherever I fall

Ah yes, the being ugly in France cinematic universe, my fave.

Thinking about how even though Roxanne is about to marry Christian, pledge her life to his, she still only trusts Cyrano to read de Guiche’s letter. She places her full trust in him, and only him.

annebrontesrequiem:

I cannot emphasize enough how much I love that Roxanne is not punished in the narrative for wanting an intelligent man to fall in love with her/she can fall in love with. Her frustration at Christian’s bumbling is completely valid and his and Cyrano’s deception is taken as the wrong thing it is

Cyrano and Roxanne. (Drawn on iPad using procreate)

I really loved the movie, Peter Dinklage has the most beautiful singing voice. Pure romance on screen. And Haley Bennet is utterly ethereal.
