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.
In rural France in the 1930s, a group of people live a marginal life in the marshland outside a bourgeois town. Riton is a pleasant man, though too fond of the local wine, and his friend Garron is also good-hearted though has never quite recovered from World War I. The after-effects of the war haunt the men, and camaraderie is mostly what gets them through life.
