    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.

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Ed Harris's father bought his son a book about Jackson Pollock simply because he felt Ed bore a strong resemblance to the painter. Ever since then, Ed Harris became fascinated with Pollock's life.

Starring in and directing the movie was so strenuous for Ed Harris that he collapsed on the set and had to be briefly hospitalized.

It took Ed Harris over 6 years to get the project to the cinema screen.

The veterinarian who comes out to check the dog that Pollock finds lying hurt in the road is played by Ed Harris' father, Bob L. Harris, who initially gave Harris the idea to make a movie about Pollock.

Ed Harris himself did all the live painting seen in the film. The finished Pollock paintings were reproduced by a team of scenic artists.

Popular Dialogues

"Jackson Pollock: If people would just look at the paintings, I don't think they would have any trouble enjoying them. It's like looking at a bed of flowers, you don't tear your hair out over what it means."

"interviewer: How do you know when you're finished with a painting? Jackson Pollock: How do you know when you're finished making love?"
