Sadly there are so many things about "Anna and the Kings of Siam" and the "King and I" that aren't true. But, the book/movies have created an iconic unrequited-love story. It all goes back to Anna Leonowens herself who did everything in the world in her books and during her life to disguise the fact that she was Euroasian. King Mongkut was around 60 years old when she worked in Siam. Even so, I still love the "King and I" and I wept through "Anna and the King" with Jodie Foster and Chow Yun-Fat!
Dear Karen
I did not realize that Anna Leonownes was Eurasian. I have been told that Boris Karloff was her great nephew. He should have been in "Abraham Lincoln,Vampire Hunter."
