Which 1987 film starring Steve Martin is based on the 1997 play 'Cyrano de Bergerac'?

how can a1987 movie be based on a 1997 play?

Cookie Bean, although it should say 1897 my screen does say 1997. so apparently on some there was that minor oops

1897, not 1997. Ugh!

Player #27517736, it says 1897 play. :)

Steve Marin is incredibly talented. King Ruth and SNL.

Player #27517736, oops! 😁
