Frida -- the movie

Tonight I watched the movie "Frida" with Selma Hayek as Frida. It was a wonderful movie and I learned a lot about Frida. Frida had a lot of troubles in her life; although she managed to get through them all. I had no idea that life could be so hard for an artist--all that travelling from her country, Mexico to the United States and Paris. It also must have been very hard to have been a Communist. I can't see how she was able to live with Diego and all his affairs. With a couple like them, I'm not even sure why they got married. But they stayed together, but their love was a indestructible bond. Love is the only thing in the world that is truly immortal. That is what I learned from this movie--that love is the most important thing.

Frida and Diego seemed like they were meant for each other, even though they cheated on each other and often argued with each other. Their bond was so great that their anger and affairs couldn't separate them. I found that amazing. What do you think?
