Frida_Kahlo

Frida Kahlo I chose to watch the movie Frida. Frida Kahlo was one of Mexico’s most famous artists. She was known for her candid portraits depicting the emotional and physical pain she experienced throughout her life. Frida is about the struggles we face throughout our lives, and how we can overcome these hardships with love and friendship on our side. As a young adult, Frida was seriously injured in a trolley accident. The accident left her bed-ridden for months, due to severe injuries to her body. Doctors said that she would not be able to walk again. During this time, she developed her talent for painting. Miraculously, Frida makes a full recovery, but the medical expenses drained her family’s finances. Frida decided to try to become a professional painter to help support her family. She went into Mexico City in search of professional critique from the successful painter Diego Rivera. Diego immediately recognized her talent and offered to help her. They quickly fell in love and Diego proposed marriage.
