King Chulalongkorn:
She was the first Englishwoman

:01:38
I had ever met,
:01:40
and it seemed to me she knew more
about the world than anyone,

:01:43
but it was a world Siam
was afraid would consume them.

:01:49
The monsoon winds had whispered
her arrival like a coming storm.

:01:53
Some welcomed the rain,
but others feared a raging flood.

:01:59
Still, she came,
:02:01
unaware of the suspicion
that preceded her.

:02:05
But it wasn't until years later that I
began to appreciation how brave she was.

:02:09
And how alone
she must've felt.

:02:14
An Englishwoman,
:02:16
the fiirst I'd ever met.
:02:20

:02:34
Mother, come look.
I think they've killed someone!

:02:37
Louis, do take care
about the railing, honey.

:02:39
Beebe, Moonshee,
gather your things.

:02:41
It's time we went ashore now.
Come on, Louis.

:02:43
I still think that we should wait
until someone from the palace arrives.

:02:47
Yes, well, if they were coming,
they would've been here already.

:02:49
- Besides, the ship is leaving.
- My point exactly.

:02:58
Good-bye, Mrs. Leonowens.
Uh, watch your step.
