I saw \u003Ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099334/\">the film with Gerard Depardieu\u003C/a> three times in the cinema when it came out in 1990 and I've watched it at least once a year since then. So much of it is light comedy, but it somehow really resonates with something in my psyche and I think it must be my favourite film. I watched it late last night, which meant I had to splash cold water on my face when it finished so I wouldn't get streaming tears all over my pillow. (Nothing like a great sob before bed.)\\r\n\\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https://images.jabberworks.co.uk/lj/cyrano-0bc4d137a6.jpg\">\\r\n\\r\nThis is just a quick sketch, I tried to loosen up a bit with the linework, but I'm not sure I like it. I'd love to do a comic about Cyrano, there's one for the ideas folder.\\r\n\u003Clj-embed id=\"49\"/>\\r\n\u003Ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nri054ZsIPM\">\u003Ci>YouTube link\u003C/i>\u003C/a>","2009-05-19T07:11:00.000Z","cyrano-de-bergerac",[],"cyrano de bergerac",1776628732361]
