Movie #132 "The Treatment" is a smart comedy, and those are tough to find these days. It centers on an English teacher who is trying to get his act together so he can find that perfect someone --- he thinks he's lost his one great chance at it, when a girl that dumped him but whom he still has got a thing for meets him in the street and tells him she is getting married. That's actually the start of a change in his life for the better, and it's good to watch his transformation to a worthy person to love by the end of the film. A nice slice of life about love.
