Bettina Loved a Soldier

In 19th-century France, young, single and wealthy Bettina is pursued by dozens of young men, but she believes that they're interested more in her money than in her and rejects them all. Young army Lt. Jean Reynaud meets her and falls for her without knowing how wealthy she is; when he finally finds out, he is afraid that, because of her high social status and his low one, he'll be perceived to be just another gold-digger, and his sense of honor won't permit that, so he turns her away. She, however, doesn't want to be turned away, and he finds the tables turned when she pursues him.
