Feet, what do I need them for If I have wings to fly.


Hello!

I have to recognize that I’m not a film lover, but there is one movie that I enjoyed a lot. It’s a movie called “Frida”. It’s a movie released in 2002 and was directed by Julie Taymor. This movie related the life story of the famous Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, since her youth to her death. Also, related the relationship between Frida Kahlo, and her husband Diego Rivera. This movie belongs to the Drama and biographical genre.
Frida Kahlo is interpreted by Salma Hayek. In this movie, there are a lot of recognized actors, like Alfred Molina, in the role of Diego Rivera, Antonio Banderas, in the role of David Alfaro Siqueiros, Geoffrey Rush in the role of Leon Trotsky, and others.

I saw this movie when I was 10 years old in my home, because my cousin Hector recommended it to me, and I loved it. I like all the details of the movie, the soundtrack (Mexican singers, like Lila Down, Chabela Vargas, and some song interpreted by Salma Hayek). Also, I like the combinations between the life of Frida Kahlo, and her paintings. I think that Salma Hayek represented with a lot of professionalism the figure of Frida Kahlo.


It was a movie that received a lot of god critics, even was nominated to 6 Academy Awards (Salma Hayek like Best Actress), and won 2 of them (Best Makeup and Best Original Score).
Also, Frida Kahlo is my favorite painter. It’s another reason because I enjoyed this movie. If you haven’t watched this movie, I recommend that you do it!
