Roxanne



Passions (#72)

It's the romantic story of Cyrano deBergerac, updated to the 1980s. Overall, I liked it. Steve Martin is funny, but not over the top. Daryl Hannah is sweet (which is nice, because I usually don't like her). Oh, and it has Rick Rossevich. Don't know who he is? He played Slider in Top Gun

(even in Spanish, you get what the scene's about)

in honor of saxophone day, i'm reviewing this movie, because of all the annoying '80s saxophone music in the background.

i haven't seen this, but i hated the play 'cyrano.' i found him whiny and cowardly.
but thank you for the volleyball scene.

here he's not whiny and cowardly. i liked him. the other guy, though, disappointed me because he started off endearing and then sort of became a jerk.
