Darryl F. Zanuck's Hand-Annotated Script for Anna and the King of Siam Daryl Zanuck's hand-annotated script for "Anna and the King of Siam," bound in the original Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation paper wrappers, 143 pages, 9.25 x 11.5, dated August 29, 1945, initialed on the front cover in pencil by the producer, "D. Z." Zanuck makes some pencil corrections throughout, with minor revisions to dialogue, deletions, check marks, plot notes, and other bits of commentary. In fine condition, with expected wear from use. An adaptation of the 1944 novel of the same name by Margaret Landon, the film was based on the fictionalized diaries of Anna Leonowens, an Anglo-Indian woman who claimed to be British and became governess in the Royal Court of Siam (now Thailand) during the 1860s. Darryl F. Zanuck read Landon's book in galleys and immediately bought the film rights. Starring Irene Dunne as Anna and Rex Harrison as the King, the movie explores cultural clashes and mutual respect that develop between the two characters.
