Aaron Dessner of rock band The National has praised Peter Dinklage for his vocal performance in musical film Cyrano, saying the actor “really developed” as a singer and took “ownership” of the songs.

The Game Of Thrones star, who portrayed Tyrion Lannister in the hit HBO fantasy series, stars as wordsmith Cyrano de Bergerac in the Joe Wright-directed feature.
