E L @RT19363241 2 days ago a thoroughly fascinating glimpse into the mind of Jackson Pollock through Ed Harris’ searing portrayal. It’s a story told through the frustrating eyes of the real life pollock’s creative battles with bi-polar disorder, alcoholísm & self-destructive personality. Marcia Gay Harden’s portrayal as Lee Krasner, Jacksons wife, is fantastic and her Oscar for Best Supporting Actress is evident in her on screen performance here. A must see for anyone who appreciated Pollocks artwork and his struggles in becoming a cultural icon of abstract art in the 20th century.

Maybe I would love to see more younger and beginning of his career. The ending is true but sad.

The film follows Pollock from his early days as an artist, detailing his journey through abstract expressionism into his drip period later in life. Harris is brilliant as the tortured artist, as is Marcia Gay Harden as his long-time partner and fellow artist Lee Krasner. What makes the film so special, however, is Harris' subdued and restrained directorial style. Instead of mirroring the often frantic and mercurial behavior of the protagonist with quick cuts, Harris allows the camera to observe the artist in both social interactions and the creative process with long, uninterrupted takes. The film provides remarkable insight into a truly intriguing character. See more Read all reviews
