High notes.  Low notes.  That's love.

Boys meets girl.  Boy sings a bunch of high notes.  Boy loses girl.  Girl sings a bunch of high notes.  Boy gets girl.  Everyone lives happily ever after.

This comedy about a young woman raised by a French regiment is that simple, that sweet, and that utterly delightful.
