On The Treatment, film critic Elvis Mitchell gives the "treatment" to some of the most influential and innovative forces creating movies and popular art and entertainment. Elvis speaks with an amazing array of guests, discussing everything from their inner conflicts to their interior design. With a straightforward style that understates his vast knowledge, conversations on The Treatment are mostly comfortable, sometimes contentious, but always fascinating.
