Fantastic movie! As a child I watched this show and now my daughter is watching it too. We love this dvd,she sings and dances around. It is a lovely movie for people of all ages.

Mrs. Anna Leonowens and her son Louis arrive in Bangkok, where she has contracted to teach English to the children of the royal household. She threatens to leave when the house she had been promised is not available, but falls in love with the children. A new slave, a gift of a vassal king, translates "Uncle Tom's Cabin" into a Siamese ballet, expressing her unhappiness at being with the King. She attempts to escape with her lover. Anna and the King fall in love, but her British upbringing inhibits her from joining his harem. She is just about to leave Siam when she hears of the King's imminent death, and returns to help his son, her favorite pupil, rule his people.

this is an awesome movie. teaching kids about values...how to treat a woman. the king was an arrogant king who didnt show his affection to his daughters and sons....but the new school teacher changed his mind...
