Maybe "stiff" is not quite the right word. "Uncinematic" is maybe what I'm looking for; that is, there is no sense that the material is reimagined for the very different medium of film. The film of The King and I looks like an extremely elaborate stage production -- even the blocking of the first act finale is done exactly as it would be done on stage, playing out as if the film frame were a theater proscenium.
