Director Carla Gutierrez spoke about her new documentary Frida in her new uInterview.
The documentary that follows the iconic painter Frida Kahlo explores the artist’s life through her own words, using diaries, letters, essays, and interviews.
When asked what she learned about Kahlo from the production, Gutierrez told uInterview founder Erik Meers, “I feel like I really knew all the details of her; there was not much that really surprised me when we were doing the research – in terms of facts. But what really surprised me was this opportunity to really hear about her emotions in a very deep, personal way. So to really hear the texture of her person, the texture of her personality, the texture of her essence and her spirit—that was surprising, being able to see her in a very fragile way sometimes, or a very messy way, a very insecure way.”

The South by Southwest debut of “Stormy” was not your typical Imagine Documentaries premiere.
About adult film star Stormy Daniels’ alleged affair with former President Donald Trump, the film drew an eclectic crowd that included porn stars and “Muppet” director-producer Frank Oz, who sat in the same row as Daniels and her entourage made up mainly of buff bodyguards. Dogs sniffed Austin’s Stateside Theater prior to the screening. After it unspooled, Daniels spoke to the SXSW audience, revealing that she first met “Stormy” exec producer Judd Apatow when he hired her for a small part in his 2005 film “40 Year-Old Virgin.” When she was a no-show due to a death in the family, Apatow sent her flowers and rescheduled her shoot date.
“I thought he would replace me,” Daniels, who would go on to appear in “Knocked Up” for the filmmaker, told the crowd, with director Sarah Gibson standing nearby.
