known translations or any of the other standard texts, but  from the film adaptation _Cyrano de Bergerac (1950)_ (qv) with  translation by Brian Hooker (qv). Edmond Rostand (qv)s final  two words in the original French were "My panache!" which is usually  used in translations. Hookers version changes it to "My white  plume!" Another slight variation occurs in the final lines, when  Helene accepts Harrys proposal of marriage and says, "I hope that  after we marry, youll always look at me just like this...  especially in front of other people!" In the original play by  Oscar Wilde (qv), the line is "I hope you will always look at me  just like that, especially when there are other people present."
