From KCRW Santa Monica and KCRW.com, it's The Treatment.

Welcome to The Treatment. I'm Elvis Mitchell. Has it been a year since multiple award

winner Kate Winslet was last here, the actor who was last year for her film Lee, the incredible

biopic, is now a director. Her directorial debut is a film written by someone she had to, I guess,

really persuade to give her the script for the film, the title, and I think kind of the figurative

location of the film is also goodbye, June. First of all, it's a pleasure to have

you back here. Thank you. It's a great pleasure to be here. And it's a family psychological journey. I don't want to call it a drama because it's not that. It was not just that. I don't want to call it a melodrama, though it has that. I don't want to call it comedy, although it has all that stuff, too. What it has a lot of is patience.

And what's striking is that it was written by such a young person,

and it's such a movie about taking time to observe the world.

Actually, that's a very accurate description of the writer,

who happens to be my son, Gerald Anders.

And he's only 21 years old.

And he's always been a very watchful, mindful,

observant person of other people and the world.

It's just a part of who he is.

He's very calm and a very observant, smart boy.

And he's always written.

So when he finished school post-COVID,

he really wanted time to kind of meet the world, I think, like that post-COVID generation of

teenagers really did because they felt so sad about the things that certainly in my country

were taken from them

that they lost out on. And his creativity was something that really pulled him out of that time.
