I keep coming back to Frida Kahlo.

I caught the film years back and liked it so much that I climbed the Coit Tower in San Francisco to view the mural art by Diego Rivera, her much older, socialist, cheating husband.

The film starring Salma Hayek playing her painful but artful life was on TV last Sunday on filmart, and i catch the last scene with a quote written by her before her/her painting combusts, with her lying serene in bed.

‘I hope the leaving is joyful; and i hope never to return.’
