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.
Janice and Bill Templeton are the parents of well-adjusted preteen Ivy. Their happy home life is disrupted by the arrival of mysterious stranger, Elliott Hoover. At first mistaken for a potential child molester, Hoover explains that his obsessive interest in young Ivy is because he believes she is the reincarnation of his own child, who died in a horrible accident.
