Things in siam are different. Even the love.
How brave Anna is! But how lonely she must have felt.
An English woman, a widow with a son, comes to Siam to teach the king's children.During the years, she opened the heart door to the gentel king. Both two felt the spiritual love that beyond the physical desire.
Since I have already seen the old black-white version of this movie, this new version surprised me by Chou's acting. "Brother Fat" is really charming.O(∩_∩)O~
Love can conquer all the differences. So it is.
