I wasn't familiar with Pollock's work until I came to the USA, but I was familiar with Ed Harris's roles in movies.<br />He's one actor I'm always very happy to see, and will always go out of my way to see one of his films. He never disappoints, never goes over-the-top, just gives us a quality 24 carat performance - always.Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-19245153760980079622009-11-28T15:10:54.439-06:002009-11-28T15:10:54.439-06:00WWW ~~~ Thanks.

He was a wee bit too left-field for my taste - though very talented. <br />:-)Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-55792772568628465422009-11-28T14:52:50.603-06:002009-11-28T14:52:50.603-06:00As you know Harris and Pollock are two of my heroe...As you know Harris and Pollock are two of my heroes. Not wholly because of who they were but for what they have accomplished. I think Pollock worked blindly forward following an idea, and in the end, changed art forever. I think Harris recognizes this too and tries to present this in the movie of Pollack’s life. The Ed Harris portrayal of Pollack is one of many parts he has played well in the movies of our time. He is one of those few actors that doesn’t seem to require the adulation of the fans.<br /><br />Your analysis seems right on target me.anyjazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03319237414264543250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-80782101750737935642009-11-28T13:56:34.522-06:002009-11-28T13:56:34.522-06:00I admire them both, T.
