Anna and the King (2000)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
Taking up the position as teacher of the Royal children of Siam, Anna Leonowens finds that her most difficult pupil is the heir to the throne, Prince Chulalongkorn. By circumstance, it is left up to Anna's son to educate the wayward Prince and through this process both boys learn to accept each other in spite of their differences.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
