Anna and the King
Anna and the King is a 1999 American biographical period drama film directed by Andy Tennant and written by Steve Meerson and Peter Krikes.
Loosely based on the 1944 novel" Anna and the King of Siam", which give a fictionalized account of the diaries of Anna Leonowens, it stars Jodie Foster and Chow Yun- fat in the titular roles.
The story concerns Anna Leonowens, an English school teacher in Siam, in the late 19th century, who becomes the teacher of King Mongkut's many children and wives.
It was mostly shot in Malaysia, particularly in the Penang, Ipoh and Langkawi region.
" Anna and the King" was released in the United States on December 17, 1999 by 20th Century Fox.
The film was subject to controversy when the Thai government deemed it historically inaccurate and insulting to the royal family and banned its distribution in the country.
It received mixed reviews from critics who praised the production values, costume design, and musical score but criticised its screenplay and length, as well as Foster's choice to play the character which many deemed as a role that required her to play beneath her intelligence.
Still it was a box office success grossing$ 114 million worldwide, against its$ 92 million budget.
It received two nominations at the 72nd Academy Awards: Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design.
Anna and the King of Siam (film)
Anna and the King of Siam is a 1946 drama film directed by John Cromwell.
An adaptation of the 1944 novel of the same name by Margaret Landon, it was based on the fictionalized diaries of Anna Leonowens, an Anglo- Indian woman who claimed to be British and became governess in the Royal Court of Siam( now modern Thailand) during the 1860s.
Darryl F. Zanuck read Landon's book in galleys and immediately bought the film rights.
The story mainly concerns the culture clash of the Imperialist Victorian values of the British Empire with the supposedly autocratic rule of Siam's King Mongkut.
The successful film starred Rex Harrison as the king and Irene Dunne as Anna.
At the 19th Academy Awards ceremony, the film received two Oscars; for Best Cinematography and Best Art Direction( Lyle R. Wheeler, William S. Darling, Thomas Little, Frank E. Hughes).
Also nominated were Bernard Herrmann for the score, the screenwriters and supporting actress Gale Sondergaard.
Landon's novel was later adapted by Rodgers and Hammerstein for their 1951 stage musical" The King and I" and subsequent 1956 film of the same name.
American film director Andy Tennant remade the film in 1999 as" Anna and the King" with Jodie Foster and Chow Yun- fat.
The portrayal of Tuptim in" Anna and the King of Siam" is considerably less sympathetic than in the musical version" The King and I", as the 1946 film shows animosity between Tuptim and Anna, while the musical makes her into a romantic character.
Also, Tuptim is ultimately executed cruelly by the king, following an episode in Leonowens's book, while in the musical her fate is made ambiguous.

The King and I (1956 film)

Leonowens' stories were autobiographical, although various elements of them have been called into question.
The film stars Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner.
The film was a critical and commercial success, and was nominated for 9 Oscars, winning 5, including Best Actor for Brynner.
