I agree! I found "Frida" to be one of the best videos I have watched in
terms of explaining the thought processes behind the artworks. I also
remember watching it and being annoyed that a movie as thought provoking as
this one cannot be shown in a classroom because of the adult themes. While I
understand that the purpose of this video was for entertainment purposes, if
the producers had focused on the long-term educational value I would have
been thrilled. Too bad they didn't ask me!!! :-)
