As
part of its revised roster of activities, the bookstore
(in it NEW
LOCATION) will be celebrating foreign, camp, edgy
and cult films with a regular screening of a movie each
Sunday afternoon at 3 pm.
This Sunday's choice is 'THE LIFE AND TIMES OF FRIDA
KAHLO'.
Expertly crafted documentary on the life and times of
the Mexican artist whose work continues to increase in
both critical and public esteem. For close observers of
Kahlo's life, there is not much new here, but the account
is brilliantly organized and illustrated.
Never before has the extraordinary life of Mexican artist
Frida Kahlo been framed in relation to the full spectrum
of the historical and cultural influences that shaped
her.
The Life and Times of Frida Kahlo explores the 20th-century
icon who became an international sensation in the worlds
of modern art and radical politics. Rita Moreno –
the Oscar, Emmy, Tony and Grammy Award winning actress
– narrates the film.
Coffee, tea and popcorn are provided.
