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.
Set in the 15th century when Hungary was a European power with an army capable of keeping the Ottoman Empire at bay, a small circle of rich Hungarians have to choose a new king for the country. To the surprise of most, they select a very young nobleman: Matthias Corvinus. But the teenager has humanist ambitions and refuses to impose a reign of terror, preferring the road to economic prosperity by demanding money from those who brought him to power.
