Cyrano (played by Gérard Depardieu) is wild and unruly by nature and kind-hearted. He silently admires his cousin Roxanne (played by Anne Brochet), but he was born with an ugly big nose. Even though he is talented, he dare not express his feelings to his cousin. After he taunts and beats a rich kid one night, Roxanne asks him to meet the next day. When Cyrano writes a love letter and prepares to express his feelings, Roxanne tells him that she has fallen in love with the handsome recruit Christie (Vincent Perez), and asks Cyrano, who is in the same army, to protect him. Christie also liked Roxanne, so Cyrano put his love for Roxanne into writing and sent it to Roxanne in the name of Christie, and cleverly arranged their marriage. Unexpectedly, the officer who had long harbored evil intentions toward Roxanne was so angry when he saw this scene that he transferred Christie to fight in Arras...
