Episode 219: Marcia Gay Harden - "Pollock" (2000)

Published: April 26, 2024, 5 a.m.

We were so full of Marcia Gay Pride from last week\u2019s episode that it was time to break a decades long blacklisting of \u201cPollock\u201d to discuss her dark horse Oscar win as Lee Krasner in Ed Harris\u2019s punch drunk biopic of Jackson Pollock. We also get Amy Madigan going full Ullman, Jennifer Connelly as Worst Supporting Ruth, John Heard from "The Sopranos", a wacky cameo from Val Kilmer that takes us down a plastic surgery rabbit hole, to say nothing of the "Uncle Buck" digression we eventually get to, as well as our thoughts on what makes biopics work or not work and a requisite celebration of Kathleen Quinlan, who is not in this movie.\n\nJoin us for The Best Supporting Aftershow and early access to main episodes on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bsapod\n\nEmail: thebsapod@gmail.com\nInstagram: @bsapod\n\nColin Drucker - Instagram: @colindrucker_\n\nNick Kochanov - Instagram: @nickkochanov
