“Marie Antoinette is a thoroughly modern confection, blending insouciance and sophistication, heartfelt longing and self-conscious posing with the guileless self-assurance of a great pop song. What to do for pleasure? Go see this movie, for starters.” AO Scott, New York Times.

“Let's thank Julie Dash for her persistence in bringing us this jewel. This is a story we will tell our children again and again—and with each retelling, the colors will swell in our souls.” Patricia Smith, Boston Globe.

A film of spellbinding visual beauty and brilliant resonant performances, Julie Dash's Daughters of the Dust has become a landmark of independent film.

Set in Mexico City, Julie Taymor’s visually evocative biopic focuses on the bold and controversial artist Frida Kahlo. The film traces Kahlo’s lifelong, tempestuous relationship with her mentor, Diego Rivera, along with her illicit affairs with Trotsky and various women. Her forward-thinking artistic, political, and sexual attitudes are explored as we witness a hard-drinking, passionate woman of the early 1900s, which earned an Oscar nomination for Salma Hayek.
