10. Kind and generous to the last. Anna Leonowens, King Mongkut of Siam, Tup Tim and Prince Chulalongkorn are featured what musical?

Answer: The King and I

Only one man could ever have played the part - the magnificent Yul Brynner. Many people believed that they were watching a true story, not only regarding the antics of the king, but also the importance of Anna in the court. The show was based on the memoirs of Anna Leonowens, but they are now considered to be a fairly inaccurate portrayal of the court.

The film so insulted the Thai people, that it was banned from being shown in Thailand on grounds of historical and cultural distortions. There you go, see you next time.
