ARMED with sharp foil and sharper words, Cyrano here thrusts at Valvert in the famous Theatre de Burgoyne duel of "Cyrano de Bergerac." This scene, from the Stanley Kramer film of Rostand's classic play, shows the Academy Award-winning Jose Ferrer in the part of the long-nosed swordsman and lover Cyrano. Some of the most dramatic moments of the film, recorded by the principals especially for radio, will be broadcast in the ZB "Sunday Showcase" at 9.35 p.m. next Sunday, August 15. Listeners will hear the theatre scene, the "nose" speech, the ballad of the duel, the "No, thank you" speech, the balcony scene, and the death scene.
