What Cyrano de Bergerac is
Here's a big-nose-guy-loves-beautiful-woman story that is not, in fact, Roxanne. Cyrano is in love with his cousin, but his outsized schnoz keeps him from declaring himself. Instead, he funnels his love through a handsome but tongue-tied cadet. At least it's got Gerard Depardieu.
