See what it means

The film is based on Pollock's biography, but it omits too much background explanation. It takes a lot of effort to read. After reading a book to understand his entire life background and the early relationship between family and friends, I can understand the incomprehensibility better.
Among them, the description of the painting process is relatively "real". I always feel that for action painting, the painting and the painting process are equally important. The painting should be exhibited with the process rather than isolated, otherwise there will be a feeling of separation. There is such a film and television clip. The record just made up for the bias in understanding in time.
The most rare thing is that the actor writes, directs and plays by himself, which is great~~~

    The movie's starting point for all aspects of pollock's personality and psychology is too uneven. When it develops to the final car accident, it really feels like a big gap has been skipped, but it is full of stars because of OST and subjective factors. .

    After jumping and watching in class, passers-by turned dark. Perhaps the most powerful painters are manic, depressed, turbulent, and desperate. With extreme lust and personality, only one step away from criminals, he is almost the kind of person I hate the most. But he would still be completely moved by the look at the beginning of the surrender of his future wife.
