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.
Ivan is a 14-year-old boy and lives with his Uncle Jaime, a mediocre businessman of used car parts. Both of them dream of a better life and are saving to immigrate to Chicago. They soon realize they need more money to pay the pollero. Jaime decides to introduce his nephew to the world of stolen car parts. Ivan is a quick learner and invites his friend Efrain to help him. Both teenagers start to have fun and fulfill the uncle's "invoice orders" until Ivan finds out that his uncle has opposite intentions for the trip they are saving and planning on doing together.
