* {{Padding}}: Plenty to go around between all of the comic relief characters, who unfortunately steal a lot of the focus in the story. Their antics during iconic song numbers such as "Getting to Know You" stand out as especially egregious moments of this.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: A downplayed example, though many were baffled at the attempt to adapt this particular story with a much younger audience in mind. The fact that this film is almost exclusively written for said audience ended up being a major criticism towards the movie, with many calling the kid-friendly approach unfaithful to the original tale.

** Anna coaching the king on his table manners during the dinner party with the British and Siamese dignitaries is also an incredibly awkward scene, with said dignitaries playing along with their antics.

** Anna protests about her son being raised among a harem. Very amusing if you're familiar with ''Film/BlackNarcissus'' - where Deborah Kerr played a nun who tried to establish a convent in a harem house. [[spoiler: She failed]].

This is hilarious considering Patrick Adiarte's other role in a Rogers & Hammerstein musical - ''Literature/FlowerDrumSong'' - where he plays a second-generation Chinese kid in San Francisco who is wholly Americanized.
