You just viewed a scene from the movie “Anna & the King” starring Jody Foster. Anna (played by Jody Foster) has just arrived in Thailand from her home country of England. King Mongkut is the beloved King of Thailand (now Siam). Before becoming King (at the age of 47) he spent 27 years as a monk.
During this long seclusion, he acquired a profound knowledge of Buddhism, which people say made him the compassionate person he was. He also intently studied science, English and western philosophy. Many attribute this to his accomplishment of Keeping Thailand as an independent country while many other Asian countries became colonies of the French, British, etc.
During this period in history King Mongkut ruled during the mid-1800. Anna is in Thailand to be the tutor for the King’s children. In the conversation you just viewed a British woman says, “The ways of England is the way of the world.”
