A tour-de-force, Pollock (2000) was Ed Harris at his creative best. As both director and star, Harris delivered what should've been an Oscar-winning performance in both capacities. The film centers on the innovative artistic life and tragic death of Abstract Expressionist painter Jackson Pollock. Marcia Gay Harden won the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her role as Lee Krasner. The rest of the cast is great as well, including Bud Cort, Jennifer Connelly, Amy Madigan as Peggy Guggenheim and Val Kilmer as Willem de Kooning.
