What's left behind the scenes

The film is based on the book by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith "Jackson Pollock, an American Saga".
Ed Harris's directorial debut.
Ed Harris's father bought him a book about Jackson Pollock (1912-1956) when he was a child because he seemed to believe there was a striking resemblance between his son and the artist. Since then, Harris has been literally "obsessed" with Pollock.
Filming and simultaneously fulfilling the duties of director demanded such strain and effort from Ed Harris that he once simply fainted on set and had to be briefly hospitalized.
The project took Ed Harris a total of 6 years.
Filming took only 50 days, but after the first 40 days of shooting, a six-week break was announced; it was needed to give Ed Harris time to gain weight (he gained 13 kilograms) and grow a beard, as required by the script.
Everything his character draws on screen was painted by Ed Harris himself. The finished works by Pollock (which are, of course, copies) are the work of real artists.
In the scene where his character tries to bring a box of beer home on a bicycle, Ed Harris fell off the bicycle, and when he got up, he looked at his hand. As it turned out, he actually cut his hand to the bone, and the wound had to be stitched.
American singer and actress Debbie Reynolds (1932-2016) played herself in some cameo scenes in the film. Her face appears several times on the cover of Life magazine (issue of August 8, 1949); the cover photo was the very first result of her collaboration with the magazine. The filmmakers used an authentic Life magazine cover, while the pages with the article about Pollock were merely reproductions of the original, and the photograph of Pollock was replaced with a photograph of Harris.
The film is based on the book 'Jackson Pollock, an American Saga' by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith.
