New
York Times Review
"Ed Harris's powerful biographical film "Pollock" may be the first movie
about a painter to transcend the gushy clichés found in movies that try to unravel
the mysteries of artistic creation."

Review
"The sad fate of Pollock is that the artistic temperament simply doesn't
make for engrossing screen fare. You know from the first pout, the first drunken
bender, the first kitchen-table freakout that the artist will eventually implode
-- so what's the conflict, exactly?"
