You know, something that also stood out for me with the film, and it's connected maybe to what we were just talking about, there is a parallel between Walter and you in that Walter in the film has been accused of some inappropriate misconduct. And a couple years ago on Being Mortal, there was some... It was described as inappropriate misconduct. I mean, surely those parallels... occurred to you?

Were you, did you think about them during the film or were you trying to work through something?

And you said you think about this often.

Do you feel like you learned something from that experience?

From the New York Times, this is The Interview. I'm David Marchese. There's a poem by Philip Larkin called This Be the Verse, and it's been buzzing around in the back of my mind the entire time I've been working on today's interview. The poem starts like this, though literary fans will know I'm swapping in a clean word for a foul one. They mess you up, your mom and dad.

They may not mean to, but they do. They fill you with the faults they had and add some extra just for you. That rings true for me, and I bet I'm not alone. But what do we do with that knowledge? For help answering that question, a lot of people have turned to the work of clinical psychologist Lindsay C. Gibson.

Her book, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, has been a slow-burning bestseller with over a million copies sold since it was published in 2015. It's also a viral presence on social media where it fits in with the larger trend of children reconsidering their relationships with their parents or even if they want to have a relationship with them at all.

So I had lots to ask Dr. Gibson, and some skepticism to bring her to. We talked about what emotional immaturity looks like in a parent, how much parents really shape the adults we become, whether we owe problematic parents compassion, and a bunch of other very easy topics. Parents, oi. Here's my conversation with Lindsay C. Gibson. Hi, Lindsay. How are you?
