Beautiful and enjoyable historical film with both Jodie Foster and Yun-Fat Chow in a starring role.

Watched this one and it was a good movie. Nicely dressed and the story was also interesting, despite the long playing time. Cast also did well.

Thought it was worth it.

Stunning movie, with the exception of "Awakenings" maybe I've never seen a movie with such strong acting as this Anna And The King. Beautiful images, sets and costumes too, now and then a touch of humor. Beautiful musical setting and great story. This is just about perfection. This movie actually belongs in my absolute top 10 but there are so many. Of course 5 stars
