A great story about a talent in art. Still this story tells the same old song about most of the talented minds in the world, that their success doesn't guarantee they get it better in everything else in life. The screenplay is developed nicely to encompass the life stages of Pollock. The scenes feel balanced in dividing between the New York Years and the country years, the years before marriage, the married years, and even the dysfunctional marriage years. I like to see the consistent character delve done by Ed Harris here. Marcia Gay Harden also did a great job in getting into character and also getting into the the ways of the era. Jennifer Connelly and the other supporting character also give a nice addition to the movie overall. Yet the movie feels to much like Pollock's mind, empty, lonely and troubled, that it seemed a very unlikely entertainment for me.
