Two screenings of Frida: Viva la Vida are on the calendar at the Morris Museum on Wednesday, June 3: one at 2:00 PM and one at 7:00 PM. The 93-minute documentary uses Frida Kahlo’s own letters, diaries, and private confessions as its spine, with Asia Argento narrating as the film moves between interviews, historical documents, and Kahlo’s paintings held in Mexican museums. It’s the kind of portrait that earns its runtime. Tickets are $18 general admission or $15 for members, with a $3 handling fee baked in. Grab them through the Morris Museum box office online or by phone at 973-971-3706.
