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.
The story of a young psychologist who hangs out his shingle in a small town that, curiously, is also called Mumford. Dr. Mumford is soon dispensing no-nonsense therapy to an array of quirky locals who are won over by his genuine attentiveness and surprising frankness. Mumford's unusual style opens new possibilities, lightens hearts darkened by old secrets, and sparks romances in unlikely places. Although he's been in town for only four months, he's already the most popular psychologist around. But the doctor could use some help of his own, when another doctor begins to question Dr. Mumford's credentials. As accusations fly, the town rallies to their doctor's defense.
