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.
Imagine owing the Internal Revenue Service two million euros. As a commoner: You can flee abroad, change your name or kill yourself. As a French aristocrat: A dignified representative of your caste, you laugh at such bothersome material pettiness and make mock of an authority that lays no claim to divine right. Meet the d'Arbacs--a tres chic family that will do all they can (short of working, naturally) to save their chateau, symbol of a fragile yet enduring way of life.
