Roxanne (1987) starring Steve Martin, Daryl Hannah, Rick Rossovich, Shelley Duvall. Small-town fire chief C.D. Bales (Martin) falls hard for a newcomer named Roxanne (Hannah). But he's insecure about his lo-o-ong nose, so he tries to court her through a surrogate, a shy fireman named Chris (Rossovich). It's a modern take on Cyrano de Bergerac, and for the most part it works pretty well. There are quite a few funny moments in the script, written by Martin. Hannah makes a beautiful love-interest. The disc has subtitles as well as closed captions. Grade: B+
