"I hope it is a blessing to leave, I hope I will never return."

Looking at the introduction to the Mexican painter Frida in the past, I imagined that she was a woman with a painful life. Although she has a rich history of eroticism, lust and painting were never her short-term painkillers, as she said. - A lot of times, I have forgotten what it feels like to not be in pain.

But Frida in the movie "Frida" gave me a different impression. I felt that this woman was painful but great. Her deeply loved husband cheated constantly. Love was like a bubble in front of loyalty, but in the end they They can still stay together in the end, maybe it is mutual appreciation, and they also love each other. Sometimes, love can’t be judged by desire, and more importantly, it is the choice of the other party in a crisis, and Diego has never given up. Frida.

As said in the film: "Frida paints with such painful poems, cruel as the pain of life, pleasing as a smile, hard as steel, soft as butterfly wings." The unfortunate Frida painted with paint, with Painting as medicine, how much torture she has endured is reflected in most of her paintings, she is painting her heart, expressing her pain in a naked and direct way, and people are not lonely and painful, care How do people overcome it, how do they vent, and then rediscover the meaning of life and the value of life.

The director has a good grasp of the presentation of the screen, and the story is very smooth. The film narrates Frida's life. It combines all kinds of Mexican customs, tends to be rich in color, and shuttles back and forth between Frida's reality and paintings. The pain of her body, the pain of her soul, and the exaggerated pictures present a realistic and magical feeling, which is in line with Frida's paintings.
