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.
A father invites his estranged son and his friends to spend a weekend at a ski resort around the Christmas holidays. The group all have romantic problems: Carla is a would-be model wooed by sketchy German ski instructor Hans; Jane is pregnant and won't name the father; David is a gay virgin and Jon just can't get a date. Over the course of the weekend, new relationships are made and broken, and Ian begins to reconcile with his father.
