Pollock (DVD 2003)

I really enjoyed this film. I needed to find out more about Jackson Pollock and his life and this film provided that. It picks up from where he is sharing an apartment with his brother and sister in law and goes through to the end of his life. Although I enjoyed the film I was left with so many questions that set me off on a trail around the Internet and in books trying to understand more about the man. This was an excellent introduction to a man who was widely criticised and loved by his audience. I am somewhat mystified by the 18 rating, there is a bit of chair smashing and the odd swear word, but thats it, maybe it was the depression and alcholism that gave it its 18 certificate. If you like the artist or are interested to know more then this iw well worth watching.
