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 wealthy American heiress follows her boyfriend to Brazil, thinking he might be having a fling, but instead finds that his only preoccupation is business (he's richer than her, but she doesn't know it). Soon, she falls for a debonaire Brazilian and decides to give all her money to him, because she can't bear the thought of being chased only for her money--something she knows for sure doesn't add up thgat way in the mind of her new "Latin" lover.
