One from the heart from Ed Harris who portrays artist Jackson Pollock as a man tortured by alcohol, creativity, relationships, and life in general.Harris produced, directed, and stars in this 2000 film. Marcia Gay Harden co-stars.
Good feel for the time period, but even more interesting, how Pollock took the direction he did in his art....looking for the freedom of expression that he could create but not really explain or verbalize. His paintings explode...so does his life and his marriage.
Harris makes us feel for the artist and gives us a tender but not sugar-coated bio of a remarkable man.
