Synopsis
Academy Award winner Jodie Foster and international action star Chow Yun-Fat bring to life the epic true story of a woman who challenged the heart of a king and inspired the destiny of a nation. English school teacher Anna Leonowens has traveled to Siam to educate the fifty-eight children of King Mongkut. If she has preconceived notions about the East, the King has similar notions about the West. But amid the danger of growing political unrest, their respect for each other slowly turns into something more.

Reviews
Director Andy Tennant has outdone himself.
Anna and the King is nothing but old-fashioned but it's old-fashioned in a glorious way.
This may be the best and healthiest date movie of the season.
Generally interesting and sometimes emotionally affecting.
Holds its own against the beloved 1956 musical The King and I.
