A look back into the life of the extraordinary abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock, a man who has fittingly been called an artist dedicated to concealment and a celebrity who nobody knew. The movie follows Pollock through the 40s and 50s – from being a down and out artist, through his defining relationship with wife Lee Krasner, and, finally, to self-destruction.
In his directorial debut, Ed Harris stars as Jackson Pollock, Marcia Gay Harden as Lee Krasner (Academy Award winning role), John Heard as Tony Smith, Jeffrey Tambor as Clement Greenberg, Jennifer Connelly as Ruth Klingman, Val Kilmer as Willem De Kooning, and Amy Madigan as Peggy Guggenheim.
