Roxanne (1987)

In a modern-day revision of the classic play "Cyrano de Bergerac," Steve Martin stars as C.D. Bales, the captain of the fire department for a small Colorado town. He's funny, well-liked and has a gigantic nose. C.D. becomes infatuated by Roxanne, a beautiful astronomer, but is hesitant to express himself to her. Meanwhile, she develops a crush on Chris, the new firefighter, who is good-looking but awful around women. So Chris enlists C.D. to compose letters to win over Roxanne. The question becomes, does Roxanne love Chris' body or C.D.'s mind?
