Ed Harris On The Treatment

Just what process did Ed Harris use to pick this hat for his character Virgil Cole in 'Appaloosa'? His interview with Elvis Mitchell on The Treatment is pretty good. Besides 'Appaloosa', Harris also talks at length about how the script for 'Pollock' came about, why he was compelled to make the movie, and what he had in common with the painter.

Elvis Mitchell Re: Being Interviewed -- "I'm Sweating Like I've Been Shot In The Leg"

Scott Malchus talks with Elvis Mitchell about his new show on TCM, Elvis Mitchell: Under the Influence. This interview is a cut above.

You can find a cool TCM promo and excerpts from the first shows here.

Andrew Stanton On The Treatment

This is a good one -- with the director of 'Wall-E'.

Jay Roach On The Treatment

Jay Roach is best known for comedies like 'Austin Powers' and 'Meet the Fockers'. I'm not even sure why he would want to do a picture about the hanging chads of the 2000 election, but it's called 'Recount' and plays on HBO. Elvis Mitchell talks with Roach on The Treatment.

Killer Of Sheep

One of the most talked about movie releases was 'Killer of Sheep', directed by Charles Burnett. People raved. I almost bought the DVD but opted for some Hollywood schlock instead -- don't know what I was thinking -- 'Killer of Sheep' is one of the best movies I've never seen.

Here's the trailer.

Here's Charles Burnett with Elvis Mitchell on The Treatment a few days ago.

This movie is not like anything I've ever seen. The trailer scorches the mind. Looking forward to it.

Jason Reitman On The Treatment

Ridley Scott On The Treatment

I've been a fan of Ridley Scott since I saw 'Blade Runner'. (I had no idea who had directed the movie or who Scott was, but I had become a big fan -- I think not only of BR, but of movies made with visual panache). Here's a great interview with Elvis Mitchell on The Treatment. I especially like the discussion of the voiceover work and planned definitive version of 'Blade Runner' on DVD.

They also talk about how Scott started directing commercials. Here's a couple:

Mac 1984

Chanel No. 5

And here's one I'll bet you've never seen -- The Hovis 'Bike' Advert

Tony Gilroy On The Treatment

Having accomplished something of a coup by writing all three Bourne movies, Tony Gilroy makes his directorial debut with 'Michael Clayton'. He talks with Elvis Mitchell on The Treatment on KCRW in Santa Monica. 'I go from not being able to work to not being able to stop working.'
