Plot Summary: This is the story of Anna Leonowens, the English schoolteacher who came to Siam in the 1860s to teach the children of King Mongkut. She becomes involved in his affairs, from the tragic plight of a young concubine to trying to forge an alliance with Britain to a war with Burma that is orchestrated by Britain. In the meantime, a subtle romance develops between them.Carter Review: You can only watch this if you promise me you will also one day watch The King and I. This is a stunning remake in which they cut out the music part of the musical. I've grown up in a home that loves Jodie Foster, so naturally we love this too.
