Comic genius Steve Martin delivers an incredible performance as an engaging small town fire chief who has only one tiny flaw--no, make that one HUGE flaw--his astonishingly long nose. Although he considers it no laughing matter, the hilarity never stops as C.D. Bales (Martin) contends with jerky nose jokes, a bumbling crew of firemen, and his secret love for gorgeous astronomy student Roxanne (Daryl Hannah). Unfortunately, she is attracted to fireman Chris (Rick Rossovich), who's tall on looks and short on conversation. And when C.D. agrees to coach the dumbstruck Chris in his pursuit of the fair maiden, this ticklish triangle dissolves into a hilarious series of rib-tickling romantic misadventures.

A fantastic feel good comedy - 4.25 out of 5 (3/15/2000)
The movie "Roxanne" sits firmly on my list of top-ten films of all time.
The movie is smart, funny, cute, romantic, charming and it's done by Steve Martin.
You can't ask for much more than that.
The film is a very loose retelling of Cyrano De Bergerac done through the twisted views of Martin. He plays C.D. Bales who is the fire chief of a small skiing town in Washington State. His best friend (Shelly Duvall) is the owner of the only bar/restaurant in town. The town its

A NOSE IN THE SKY - 4 out of 5 (2/11/1999)
In my opinion, ROXANNE could have been a masterpiece if director Fred SCHEPISI hadn't mixed too many different genres in one movie. So you will find in ROXANNE burlesque scenes one would have rather seen in 1915-1920 slapstick comedies, romantic moments, Steve-one man show-Martin and Daryl-no show-Hannah.
The result is a movie which won't stay in your memory but will relax you this evening.
Typically a DVD to rent.
