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.
Joey and Sissel share a one-room house as a couple intent on learning all they can about each other. Sissel is estranged from her parents, but she wants Joey to meet her father, Henry, a talkative Vietnam vet whose interests range from Eastern culture to fishing. The two men eventually become partners in an eel-catching business. Gradually, Joey and Sissel begin to grow apart as frustration and anxiety tarnish their formerly passionate affair.
