Roxanne is a 1987 American Romantic comedy film directed by Fred Schepisi. It is a modern retelling of Edmond Rostand's 1897 verse play Cyrano de Bergerac, adapted by Steve Martin and starring Martin and Daryl Hannah.
Charlie "C.D." Bales (Steve Martin), the fire chief of a small American ski town in Washington, is witty, acrobatic and skilled at many things, but he has a very large nose. He is attracted to newcomer Roxanne Kowalski (Daryl Hannah), an astronomer searching for a new comet, but she becomes infatuated with Chris (Rick Rossovich), a handsome but dim fireman who has just joined C.D.'s unit. As in the play, Bales is touchy about his most prominent feature (which he cannot have surgically altered because of a dangerous allergy to anesthetics).
When Chris bungles his budding relationship with Roxanne, he asks C.D. for help. Somewhat reluctantly, C.D. writes romantic love letters for Chris to pass off as his own. They prove irresistible, and Roxanne invites Chris to spend the night.
Chris, however, eventually becomes uncomfortable trying to meet Roxanne's intellectual expectations of him. He sends her a letter telling her that he has left town with another woman.
C.D.'s friend Dixie (Shelley Duvall) reveals to Roxanne who actually wrote the letters. When C.D. arrives at her home in response to her call, she confronts him. C.D. and Roxanne argue, she claiming that he was leading her on, while C.D. says that she wants the perfect man who is both emotionally and physically beautiful. In the end, C.D. and Roxanne forgive one another and Roxanne confesses her love for C.D.. She says that flat-nosed people are too boring and bland, and that his nose gives him character.
