"this story is about the King and I." ???
Just a suggestion for why
The King and Me might work. And I stand by my observation that if
The King and Me had been the title all along those of y'all who have been saying that
The King and I sounds right and
The King and Me doesn't would be arguing out of the other side of y'all's sense of linguistic propriety. I've never heard anyone complaining about the Robert Lawson children's classic,
Ben and Me. Note, too that he wrote a book called
Mr. Revere and I.
You get the some sort of argument from folks who insist on retaining the moribund
whom by appealing to the title of the Hemingway work,
For Whom the Bell Tolls.
