So you want to ban movies which were a product of their time?
Why don't you start burning books while you're at it?

Absolutely not!

The book didn't even scratch the surface of the rot and decay of the Siamese high society at the time!!!

To say nothing of Russian Yul Brynner playing a Thai both in the film and the play.

Just about every musical has to be canceled, because of something that might offend someone. You know it's getting ridiculous when NYU theater has to put trigger warnings for their productions' audiences.

. Yul is a walking penis. Deborah is wet for him and they did it all with their clothes on.

The only fuckwad is you. Obviously, the OP is being sarcastic and is not in favor of cancel culture and theater. But, you're just to obtuse to understand.

I was always curious about how Anna managed to get her hooped skirts into the average tuk-tuk.
