Thanks to this movie for showing us the hot and warm side of Frida. Frida’s real life is more painful than in the movie. The film focuses on expressing Frida’s emotional drippings. In reality, Frida suffers far more pain than all this.
"Her paintings are sharp and gentle, cruel as the sufferings of life, hard as steel, and soft as butterfly wings." To understand the correct order of Frida, one should start with her paintings. It’s hard to imagine why a glamorous and dignified woman under the lens of a photographer would be so depressed in her work, as she wanted to show through "Two Fridas": "There are two mes in this world, one with Treat this world tenderly and cheerfully, and the other bears the pain the world brings me."
What Frida's body suffers is pain that no one in this world can bear. In addition to the paralysis and loss of fertility mentioned in the film, Frida has to undergo surgery almost every few weeks. Faced with unbearable physical pain, in addition to relying on alcohol and drugs to numb himself, painting became the best way to relieve Frida. It is also this physical pain that created Frida’s depressed and deep feeling. Picture atmosphere.
If you compare Frida's paintings with those of Van Gogh, who is also devastated by fate, even though they are of a different school, Van Gogh wants to release himself in the wild, while Frida tends to treat his depression and pain. Express it more directly. Some people classify her work as surreal, but Frida said: "I don't paint dreams, I only paint reality." This is what distinguishes her from the paintings of Freud and others. The biggest feature of her paintings is real and profound.
The emotional entanglement between Rivera and Frida also played a tuned tune for Frida's life. Rivera's non-specificity also allowed Frida to release herself emotionally. Although Frida said: "I have had two accidents in my life, one was a car accident, and the other was when I met you." But whether it was in the affection or the love of art, the emotions of the two are still connected to everything after all. It is worth mentioning that the reason for the divorce between the two has always been a mystery, but the film explained that Rivera was afraid that Frida would be implicated in politics. In the end, until the moment Frida died, Rivera was by Frida's side. Whether it was for atonement or other reasons, I believe that they love each other because of art, and they will always be worthy of each other's sincere and passionate love.
Compared with many artists, Frida also gained a lot of luck when he suffered from the misfortune of his fate. Her father was a painter, which is one reason why she loves painting so madly. The most important thing is that her paintings have been appreciated by many people. This also makes her lucky to see others appreciate and understand her paintings while she is alive, even if no one can really feel the pain in her heart, but Believe that this can also relieve her physical pain.
Frida is crazy, but she also has the most authentic side of human beings. "Detroit's Miscarriage" is another heavy blow to her by life and destiny. She, who wanted to experience being the mother of man, was struck heartily during a miscarriage. Who can understand her despair?
Frida in the film often walks or even runs, but in reality Frida spends most of her life in bed, "If I die please cremate me, I don’t want to lie down, I Enough lying down.” With this kind of desperate painting, Frida is more like a life recorder, showing us the desolation and darkness of life.
"May export always be joy, and hope I don't have to come back again." Frida, the greatest female artist of the 20th century, ignited her life and burned her unfortunate but wonderful life in fanaticism. If the pain of the flesh cannot destroy me, then I will burn me with the flames of love!
Thank you, Frida Kahlo.
