This film is very beautiful, and the rhythm and plot are also very reasonable. There is a degree of relaxation.

The spark between the king and Anna is so strong that both actors can grasp it well.

One thing is that the clothes are very comfortable to look at, in line with the modern aesthetics and with the style of that era, which plays a very good role in contrasting the portrayal of the characters.

The king’s style of being a king, his composure when he is at a disadvantage, his defense of the country, his love for the nation, and his protection of his family. I have to say that the director is unique in casting roles, and Chow Yun-fat's King of Thailand is very well done! It's so charming! His smile was full of childishness and sexy masculine charm.

Anna's restrainedness, the sweetness of falling in love, and the sensitivity of her independence and self-esteem at all times.


The two seem to be domineering and flexible. But deep down, there are many similarities in common. They are all people who can let go of themselves and consider the world around them, and they all strive to defend their beliefs fearlessly in the environment they face. They accepted each other's criticism and opened the softest part of their hearts to each other.

This kind of communication is so touching.

The last embracing and dancing on the rooftop, this moment is worth a thousand words, and there is no regret in this life.

Ps because I love this film too much, I went to gossip about the background, saying everything, but I think no one can resist an overly beautiful and unrealistic fairy tale. I am not interested in truth, I only love this story!

    There is no desire to watch it at all. The characters are set as thin as a piece of paper. At best, they are two layers of paper. The rendering is not enough to pave the way. The heroine's character is not likable, and the love with the king is unclear.

Anna and the King quotes

  • The Kralahome, Prime Minister: Heir to throne must never be involved in issue of bondservant. It will resolve itself in time.

    Anna Leonowens: Like my house?

    The Kralahome, Prime Minister: You are learning.

  • Anna Leonowens: In my letter confirming my employment, Your Majesty, you claimed you wanted Siam to take its place among the nations of the modern world. You spoke of building something greater than yourself. A country where no man is above the law. Which is why I chose to come here.
