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.
Two Parisians meet while drowning their sorrows in a local bar: Raoul has just left his wife, while Felix has had his furniture repossessed after failing to pay alimony to his ex. Another man in the bar offers them a job, as traveling salesmen for a wine company. The two take off to Brittany, but are unsuccessful salesmen. However, they soon meet Eliane, who is so beautiful that everyone begins to buy the wine. Their rural idyll starts to sour though when Felix and Eliane begin an affair, leaving Raoul the disgruntled odd man out.
