POLLOCK
by Pat Darnell
Don't drive when drinking heavily, especially if you have borderline personality, with obsessive compulsive disorders, and bi-polar tendencies.
Spilling and collecting paints and painted objects can be thrilling, and dangerous. Movie goer is treated to Collecting-Spilling cycles that can lead to hoarding, and dysfunctional marriages. It turns out though, well-presented in scenes of this movie, discoveries made during episodes of clamor actually are foundation to much modern art.
Therefore, one must not exclude light, form, translucence and color in Pollock's paintings, in lieu of the psychology of his works. And it appears that one has to be bi-polar to not be a cynic, after all.
In the movie Ed Harris portrays Jackson
Pollock under direction of Harry Moses, and both do a damn good job of it. In their portrayal, Pollock is the reluctant bully having to push his "expressions" through to the end. Eventually this leads to a puppy found in the middle of the street, a failed extra-marital affair, and dementia. Afflicted or not, the portrayal of cagey Pollock makes it clear that all the cynicism about "modern art's evolving" comes from outside sources; so, damn it to hell.
Tatum Totum McDagger, MooPig Assistant Deputy Desk Clerk of Movie Reviews Department, had this to say about the movie's effectiveness with her, "Pollock has put the icing on the cake. I mean ... He makes me want to eat the painting. He did this after thousands of years of painting ... he put the icing on. ... eh, but who again is Ed Harris?"
Good lick there Tatum, so say we all. "Oh and yes, I want to add, Tom somebody sings a song at the end, world keeps turning. And I really, really like his voice," concludes Tatum.
