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.
Ad executive Alan Oliver--a man who's fed up with his job and frustrated by a series of empty, failed relationships--finally realizes that romantic fulfillment is right under his nose--in the form of Marissa Kiley, his best friend from kindergarten. Alan's fanciful chase after the mercurial Tracy Jennings is countered by Marissa's realization of her unhappy marriage to Paul, a co-worker of Alan's. From these journeys, Alan and Marissa learn to trust the inherent power and bonds of friendship.
