Considered the first motion picture to employ both color and sound, the only film record ever made of the original star of Rostand's famous play performing a scene from his most famous role. It is accompanied by a sound-on-cylinder recording of Coquelin's voice reciting one of Cyrano's speeches.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs itself as a historical artifact, relying on the novelty of synchronized sound and color to preserve a legendary theatrical performance. It is less a narrative and more a precious record of a cultural moment.

What lingers after viewing is a sense of witnessing a birth—the moment cinema stretched its early limbs to capture and immortalize the magic of the stage. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Clément Maurice
