Film.com's FREE movie of the week is "Love the Hard Way." Oscar-winner Adrien Brody and Charlotte Ayanna star in this drama about a thief who falls for a curious, beautiful young woman. As their intimacy grows, a slick cop (Pam Greer) is closing in.
College professor Park Young-sun meets In-jeong, one of the prettiest students in his class, by chance at an audition for a big musical project. A reckless womanizer, he asks In-jeong to take a ride with him. They drive to a riverside and he attempts to become intimate. However, to his surprise, In-jeong declines his advances, and runs away. While waiting for her to return, Young-sun encounters a group of cruel and brutal youths who may have killed In-jeong.
