If you loved Appaloosa, try Pollock
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Pollock has roughly 3.1× fewer votes than Appaloosa — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Ed Harris, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Appaloosa, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Pollock is
Van Gogh without the ear. The film tracks the painter's career from obscurity to fame, complicated by his alcoholism and tormented psyche. Ed Harris's passion project captures the downtown New York art scene of the postwar years.
