Screenwriter and executive producer Audrey Wells credits Cyrano de Bergerac as the influence behind her screenplay for The Truth About Cats & Dogs. She felt that women are sometimes judged by their looks - just as Cyrano was judged by his giant nose.

Abby (Janeane Garofalo), a witty veterinarian who hosts her own radio talk show, is anything but confident when it comes to men. When a smitten caller named Brian (Ben Chaplin) asks her on a date, she begs her beautiful neighbour, Noelle (Uma Thurman), to take her place. With Abby and Brian falling in love over the phone, and Noelle falling in love with a slightly confused Brian in person, the resulting chaos sets off an escalating series of hilarious dates and misunderstandings!
