Released in 2000, Pollock is a drama and romance film directed by Ed Harris, running about 122 minutes. “A true portrait of life and art.” — that tagline sets the tone.
What it’s about. In August of 1949, Life Magazine ran a banner headline that begged the question: "Jackson Pollock: Is he the greatest living painter in the United States?" The film is a look back into the life of an extraordinary man, a man who has fittingly been called "an artist dedicated to concealment, a celebrity who nobody knew." As he struggled with self-doubt, engaging in a lonely tug-of-war between needing to express himself and wanting to shut the world out, Pollock began a downward spiral.
Who’s in it. Pollock stars Ed Harris as Jackson Pollock, Marcia Gay Harden as Lee Krasner, Tom Bower as Dan Miller and Jennifer Connelly as Ruth Kligman, among others.
