A truly special, magical, captivating love story with a beautiful soundtrack, this film is sweet, romantic, told in such a simple way, and it presents two adorable characters that never seem unreal.
Let's be honest, this is what a movie-musical is supposed to be. Remarkable original songs, no aspirations for a Broadway adaptation, and a love story so sincere, it has to be true in real life.
The movie was good, but the music was better. It dragged to an almost dead stop at times. The performances were good, but the real star of the movie was the music, so see it just for that.
