“I hope the exit is joyful,
and I hope never to return”
A film review of the intriguing movie, ‘Frida’.
The luminous colors that bring Frida Kahlo’s fascinating uniqueness to life combined with Salma Hayek’s superb performance make Julie Taylor’s ‘Frida’ an outstanding film. The captivating directing and genius scripture produce an excellent account of the life well-known artist. Frida Kahlo was an artist of Mexican heritage, born in the year 1907. Having deficient health since, in 1925 she undergoes an almost-fatal trolley car accident, damaging her backbone and pelvis. Unable to walk for several months, Frida is confined to her bed with little verve; this proves to be the significant era that changes her life forever. She indulges in her painting, seeming to be the only way out of her misery. She paints intensely about pain and suffering. Later, she meets the love of her life, Diego Rivera (played by Alfred Molina), a womanizer and communist, and begins her chaotic relationship with him, leading to two marriages and a persistent heartache. Painting mostly surrealistic images, Frida captures her emotion and her struggle for identity. Her life was overflowing with grief, but her art depicts her rebelliousness and liberated spirit and individualism that, once having caused controversy now represents the inner soul of the modern woman.
