It was great to see this finally, because I have loved <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0120679\/?ref_=nv_sr_6\">the movie &#8220;Frida&#8221;<\/a> and often work in my studio with the soundtrack playing. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/women\/womens-life\/11605809\/Frida-Kahlo-fashion-The-artists-clothing-that-will-make-you-love-her.html\">She&#8217;s been a great
