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.
An aging fruit vendor, who has been deceiving her grown daughter that she's a wealthy millionaress (the daughter was raised in Europe), gets in a pickle when her daughter announces her arrival in the States with her new fiance. The mother then enlists the help of one of her daily customers, a big-time mobster who spends the money to create the lavish setting of living to continue the charade.
