That's a great list of movies. I like all of those.
My all time favorite is the 1950 version of Cyrano de Bergerac staring Jose Ferrer. It has great language and it's a tragic love story that gelled perfectly with my High School psyche. I don't think a day goes by that I don't think about it. Today I was thinking about the part where Cyrano tells Vicomte, who has just insulted him, all the ways he could've said it, while he proceeds to school him in fencing. Cyrano is an idol of mine.
