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.
When the deluxe Hotel Europa in Tokyo loses its bid to host an international summit because its premises are used as a hangout by the Yakuza, the management appoints a task force to chase them out. Instead of hiring professionals, however, two hapless, low-level employees--a bellboy and an assistant accountant--are given the unwelcome task. Their efforts to fight the Yakuza continually backfire, prompting the hotel management to hire a woman lawyer specializing in such matters.
