‘Frida’ Director Carla Gutierrez Wanted Audience To Feel Kahlo’s Emotions – Contenders Documentary
In an interview, ‘Frida’ director Carla Gutierrez wanted the audience for her documentary on Friday Kahlo to feel the late artist's motions.
Those tools included narration, archival material, score and the creative touch of animating Kahlo’s paintings. “We wanted to make sure that the audience in a way kind of physically or literally dove into Frida’s heart and into her pool of emotions and was able to like swim in there with her,” Gutierrez said during a conversation for Deadline’s awards-season event Contenders Documentary. I was just learning how to speak English, but it was that moment of seeing my own self and my own emotions and my own most intimate feelings being reflected on a painting that I think makes art so powerful to people.”
