Pollock is a 2000 biographical film which tells the life story of artist Jackson Pollock. It stars Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly, Robert Knott, Molly Regan, Marcia Gay Harden and Sada Thompson.
The movie was adapted by Barbara Turner and Susan Emshwiller from the book Jackson Pollock: An American Saga by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith. It was directed by Harris.
It won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress (Marcia Gay Harden, who played Lee Krasner, Pollock's wife) and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor (Ed Harris).
This film was a long term dream of Ed Harris.[1] After his father gave him a copy of Pollock's biography, he started thinking about the project, which took almost 10 years to bring to fruition.
