The King and I- Thank you so very much for such a fantastic reaction, to a beautiful movie that I love very much, Sora! The King and I is a beautiful musical, starring Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr. I deeply love the principles and the teachings shared throughout this musical, and how The King and I most certainly wouldn't be appreciated in today's world. And it's very sad how this is so. Because there are powerful messages we can all truly take away from this movie, and lessons to learn. And sadly, today's society wouldn't accept this musical/movie for what it is. However, I still truly love this musical very much. Deborah Kerr is a beautiful and an amazing actress, while Yul Brynner is a phenomenal actor. I've loved him in a number of movies I know well and love. And she is absolutely beautiful. I absolutely love seeing the strength within this King who strives to be the best King and man he can be, in a country that is very backward and behind in learning new ways of the world. Meanwhile... Anna comes to Siam with the belief she would only be teaching the King's many children. Only to come to teach them, his wives, as well as the King himself in ways he never expected. In ways that turns his whole world upside down. And while the King comes to truly appreciate Anna for being so outspoken, brave, and willing to stand up for herself and his people she's grown to love, her doing so sadly causes such turmoil for him, as the King struggles to maintain the respect and strength as his people's King. As he also strives to understand the new ways of the world through Anna's teachings and with her help. Tragically, his longing to be better, and his struggles with the old traditions and customs within their country wind up tearing him apart, just as the Prime Minister had warned Anna of early on within this movie. Wanting to be seen in the best of light, and as a good man and King in front of Anna and for his people, while also struggling to maintain order amongst his people who still long to keep to the old customs and don't understand how to change. Losing the strength in front of his people to punish Tuptim as he believed was his duty as King to do, because Anna stood her ground and fought to protect the young woman who defied him, was tragically the last straw that finally breaks him. And because he can't face losing Anna's respect, as well as the respect of his people throughout his kingdom as he would have, the King comes to stop eating all together and is unable to sleep for weeks, eventually causing his body to shut down until he sadly dies in the very end. I absolutely love the relationship shared between Anna and the King. Not a romantic relationship, but one forged out of deep respect and the dearest friendship any two people could ever forge. In spite of them constantly butting heads with one another. Their friendship is beautiful. Which makes this musical's ending so much more tragic and heartbreaking. However, the King dies having earned Anna's respect and adoration once again. I most certainly applaud the creator and writers for being so bold as to end this musical with the King's death. Because it shows how much this man truly wanted to be a good man, who may have faltered many times, but who also never stopped trying to be better. And I absolutely love the ending, that makes me cry time and time again. The King's children are absolutely adorable, and his wives are all very beautiful women, and I love all the scenes between them and their King, as well as with Anna. I especially love the march of the children when they are first introduced to Anna, as the children are led out one or two at a time to bow before her and their father. The music is powerful, and this scene always gives me chills. Especially when the King to be comes out strong and proud. As for Tuptim... She is played by Rita Moreno, and she too does a phenomenal job throughout this movie. Her story is tragic upon it ending with her losing the love of her life to death because of his defiance against the King and ways of their people, as well as for her being forced to become a wife to the King... A man she does not love. And while I certainly side with Anna in her fight to protect this young woman against the King's wrath, we also see how much he wishes to do what is right in this difficult circumstance, and not what is the proper way of punishment in accordance with their country's laws. I love all of the songs throughout this musical. However, the few that stand out the most to me are Shall We Dance? sung by Anna and the King as they learn to dance with one another so beautifully, and I love Getting to Know You sung by Anna to the children, as well as Tis a Puzzlement sung by the King as he first begins to struggle with Anna's teachings and the knowledge he's always believed until her arrival. Phenomenal and beautiful songs and music! And lastly... The time period, sets, and costumes, as well as the overall look of this movie are absolutely gorgeous! This movie is beautiful for a movie that was made back in 1956, as so many classics and musicals are that were made so many years ago. Thank you very much once more, Sora! I am grateful to you for watching it for me, even if you struggled to understand the show of its ways and times, especially in regards to the King himself. :) Thank you, my dear friend! Until next month's movie reaction... Sincerely, Heidi
