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.
After a run-in with local police in an African bazaar, Chris finds himself on the run, stranded in a foreign land without either money or a passport. In desperation, he elects to stow away on a freighter bound for Europe but once aboard, he's soon discovered, and finds himself caught up in a dangerous web of secrets and deceptions. Why are the ship's crew-members vanishing without trace? And what exactly is in the hold? The vessel's brooding captain seems to have the answers but the truth, Chris soon learns, may be more dangerous than ignorance.
