Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Anna and the King is a 1999 adaptation of the 1944 novel Anna And The King Of Siam, a fictionalized account of Anna Leonowens' articles (pretty fictionalized themselves) of her time in Siam. It has elements of both the 1946 non-musical film with Irene Dunne and Rex Harrison, and the Rogers and Hammerstein musical. The film starred Jodie Foster as Anna, Chow Yun-fat as the King, and Tom Felton as Louis Leonowens.Anna Leonowens is a young, British widow in the 1860s who moves to Siam to serve as tutor to the king's fifty-eight children. The king hopes to raise his heirs with a sense of globalism and a knowledge of the modern world outside of Siam. Anna struggles to balance teaching modern world views while respecting Siamese tradition.See also: The King and I. | |

All Asians Know Martial Arts | |
| Anna and the King / int_681c1b78 | comment |
All Asians Know Martial Arts: There's a brief scene showing Mongkut doing tai chi. The real Mongkut served 27 years as a Buddhist monk, not a warrior.note The 1946 film got this right. One of the posters for the film also has a martial arts look. | |

Culture Clash | |
| Anna and the King / int_70ade2c4 | comment |
Culture Clash: Anna is addressed as 'Sir' at the court because women are not spoken to by the high officials. The real-life reason for Anna's being addressed as "sir" is much simpler: "sir" and "madam" are the same word, khun, in Thai. | |
