from New York

5.99!? I demand you all to buy this film now! Its brilliant and pure passion. Frida Kahlo was an enigmatic human being, and her existence was anything but ordinary. It translates into a unique story of one woman's life, her (many) lovers and one great love, the painter Diego Rivera,(wonderfully portrayed by Alfred Molina), her pride for her vibrant culture and country of Mexico, and how she took the many adverse and tragic occurences in her short life and created them into an organic and real passion and art, a colorful life filled with every emotion. Salma Hayek as Frida was a superb choice, as Salma's empathy and love for Frida truly translates through into her portrayal. I'm one of the many who look at Frida Kahlo and her bittersweet life with awe and admiration, and I adore this movie and have watched it countless times, noticing new surprises and taking in the details I already know and have obsessed over, for it is such an artfully done film that explores the depths without taking away all the mystery of the strange allure that IS Frida Kahlo.

What's great about it: fascinating effects, directing, storyline, acting, all woven to create a striking, raw peice of art in itself

What's not so great: none that I could speak of

I would recommend this to a friend!

Frieda is the story of the painter, Frida Kahlo. She was from Mexico, and lived through an interesting period of time. I recommend this film; it's a great biography.
