    There was serial killer, serial killer killed , thats not shocking. What would have been shocking in this movie were if morgan freeman was the killer or he teamed up with the baldy to kill.

    Netflix recommended Who the *$&% is Jackson Pollack last week. It was the first time I had heard of it.

    Awesome, awesome documentary. It's about a 70-year-old foul-mouthed, truck driving old woman, who buys what appears to be a Jackson Pollack painting worth millions for $5 at a thrift shop. When she finds out what it is, she tries to get it authenticated, runs into all sorts of resistance, and keeps pushing, even enlisting the help of a forensic researcher. It's a great look into the arrogance and insular attitude of high-end art world.

    9/10

    According to wikipedia she has turned down 2 and 9 million dollar offers for the painting, holding out for 25. Accordingly, I think she's pretty nuts.

    If that would have happened.....

    Shocking, no

    A stupid plot twist that would destroy everything that was set up before hand, yes.

    Red Cliff

    This was the American version that condensed both films into one 2 1/2 version. Seems like they pretty much kept all the war scenes and cut a lot of the slower, character-driven moments. But there was still enough there to develop an attachment to the protagonists. The war scenes were pretty spectacular.

    8/10

    Yeah, one of the offers is mentioned in the documentary, one in the concluding story bars. She is a little nuts, but as you watch, you root for her.

    Just from seeing the trailer, this looks like a movie that's already been done 10 times over.
