Old Boys
A lighthearted, affectionate school comedy reworking Cyrano de Bergerac through a love triangle between an awkward wordsmith, a dim but charming jock, and a spirited girl.
In the school-set re-working of Cyrano, an awkward but imaginative pupil helps the handsome but spectacularly dim school-hero pursue the fiery daughter of a visiting French teacher.
