Review of Pollock (2000) by Vincent P — 20 Oct 2018
Ed Harris' Pollock represents the latest opportunity for an accomplished thespian to step around to the other side of the camera. In addition to donning the director's cap, Harris also wears a pair of other hats - he is one of the movie's producers and he is also the star.
For a production that has been whispered about on the grapevine for years, Pollock turns out to be a bit of a disappointment. In essence, it is an erratically paced, conventional biographical treatment of the life and loves of modernist painter Jackson Pollock, who blew through the New York art scene during the 1940s and 50s before dying in a car crash.
A decent biography. (A painter's portrait).
