Cast: Deborah Kerr, Yul Brynner, Rita Moreno, Martin Benson, Alan Mowbray, Geoffrey Toone, Terry Saunders, Rex Thompson, Carlos Rivas, Patrick Adiarte, Marni Nixon, Charles Irwin, Jocelyn Lew, Leonard Strong, Stephanie Pond-Smith
This lavish Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, adapted from the stage, has become a classic.

At first, Anna and the King do not get along, but when they perform their dance number to "Shall We Dance?" there is more than a small hint of romance. Brynner won an Oscar for his portrayal of the King. The film won four other Oscars and was nominated for an additional four, including Best Picture, Actress (Kerr), and Director.
