Cita:Frida is an absolutely gorgeous film and certainly is proof positive that there's something to Taymor beyond mere hype. The performances here are top notch, and the entire film is fascinating and heartfelt. What some might pine for is more information about Kahlo. We get a lot of sturm und drang with regard to her rocky relationship with Rivera, but we're left with precious little knowledge about her contributions to the art world. Even with that caveat, this Blu-ray looks and sounds stupendous and comes with a bountiful supply of extras, and so is Highly recommended.
