Who else thinks this film is wonderful?


It's absolutley breathtaking. It's so wonderful and magnificent, even if it is historicaly innacurate. It's just, amazing in itself. Wow.

I know it offends some native Thai folk, but think of this... if it wasn't based on a true story, and was just a fictitious movie, people would surely appreciate the beauty and not think of the controversy.


It's such a beautiful, captivating film!!!

I think it's great! I just watched it again yesterday on BBC. I loved Chow's performance, and Anna's son is really cute

I loved the movie. It's an example of pure love and probably the most amazing thing is that it leaves you with the felling that their love was complete even without the physical contact.

I love this movie! The only problem is that I think the world is against me wanting to own it. I can't find it anywhere! My favorite part of the movie is at the end when the king kisses Anna's hand and they start to dance.

Well, one day you'll probably find it. Just keep looking. Maybe set up a website for donations so someone may send it to you. LOL.

I thought it was decent. The costumes and sets were magnificent though.
