Story Synopsis:
From the musical play by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, based on Margaret Landon’s Anna And The King Of Siam comes five-time Academy Award®-winner, The King And I. Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr star in this lavishly produced classic musical, masterfully combining exotic spectacle with the intimate story of an English governess who introduces Western customs to the royal household of the Court of Siam. While there, she makes such an impression on the court that her teachings inspire the decisions of the king and his heirs.
