• A Wonderful Tribute to Frida Kahlo
  It took me a number of years to finally rent and watch this film. I can only say that it was extremely well done, from the acting to the film score to the sets and the photography. The cast and crew of this movie - especially Salma Hayek and director Julie Taymor - deserve enormous praise for creating a film both masterful and compelling, in its story of this brilliant and talented woman.

• Outstanding quality
  This dvd is in excellent condition and included the bonus material which I really enjoyed. Kudos to the seller - I have received damaged new dvds in the past from other companies & had to return them, this one is like new.

• "Frida" hits all the bases
  This film is outstanding in so many ways: First, the musical score is a tremendously exciting! Second, the sets, the photography and use of color are artistic achievements on thir own. Third, the integration and melding of Kahlo's art work into a film is brilliant. Fourth, the acting, especially by Selma Hyak. is excellent and she really channels Frida. My only reservation about the film is that it should have been done in Spanish, with sub-titles
  which would have been no problem for Selma.

• Great Movie
  I adore this movie! It's a very interesting look in Frida's life. I really enjoyed the way her artwork was integrated into the movie. Salma Hayek was a perfect choice for the role - a strong and talented woman must be played by an equally strong and talented woman. I highly recommend this movie to anyone interested in her life or Mexican art in general.
