NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

lonely-chaotic-soul It was a little disappoiting for me to see that it was focused on her relationships more than her art. It was a good film but the title was a little misleading. She is famous for her self-portraits, unusual style, eyebrows and for her hairy body which I didn't see in the film. It should have been 'Frida in Love' or something like that.

Syl Salma Hayek played the Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo, in this two hour film about her life. Hayek played her perfectly as a complicated, sensual and determined woman. The film was directed by Julie Taymor who directed "The Lion King" musical on Broadway and around the world. The film is colorful, vibrant and alive with life. The cast included Alfred Molina as Diego Rivera, her husband, fellow artist and partner-in-life. British actor, Roger Rees, played her father. Australian actor, Geoffrey Rush, played Trotsky. Edward Norton played Nelson Rockefeller. Ashley Judd, Saffron Burrows, Antonio Banderas and Valeria Molino also are in the film. Salma did a wonderful job in playing Frida to earn an Academy Award nomination. The film was nominated for several Academy Awards. Composer Elliott Goldenthal won the Golden Globe Award and Academy Award for Original Score. A memorable scene is the sensual dance with Frida and another woman in the film. Her story and life was inspiring and admirable most of the time.

alecoronan In my point of view, no Mexican painter was like Frida Kahlo. Aside from being my idol, just her life inspired me in many ways. Both, everything she suffered, as the strength and courage that characterized her. In this film, the image and life of Frida is reflected well, in my opinion, perfectly fine. How she dresses, which was something that identified her, like her famous eyebrow and mustache, everything was perfect. In this film, directed by Julie Taymor, is completely different from what you might expect from a "film / documentary" of the life of an artist such as Frida. By implementing the drawings of animated skeletons when she comes out of a coma, or when she imagines Diego as King Kong, among others, make even more original film. As I said, in my personal view this movie I qualify as excellent.

sof_gr The cast was very good, the costumes were wonderful! It is a great movie, biography of Frida Kahlo and has much to offer. It is a true story of passion, pain, strength, courage and above all unstoppable and unselfish love. One can learn facts of Frida Kahlo's life and talent as well as get known with Frida's paintings and their history, something very important. Moreover after seeing this movie I was "stimulated" to look for more things about Frida and other painters. I vote with 8 just because I want to see the movie again to clarify some historical and political facts that I am not so sure about. Generally, it is an absolutely worth-seeing movie and I highly recommend it to everyone.
