Speaking of Cyrano de Bergerac, I recently saw the movie musical version of it released last year, with Peter Dinklage in the lead role.

Is there not something so fucking romantic and intimate about loving your partner so much that you rewrite one of the most iconic and classic stories in the world to be about them, about the way they are overlooked for having a stigmatized physical trait, and portraying them as a sexy, compelling romantic lead so that the world can fall in love with them like you have? And making that classic story better, more meaningful and personal, because you put your own love for this person into it?
