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.
On the eve of the Civil War, an attractive southern belle arrives at an Indiana town, seducing an idealistic anti-slavery academic, breaking him up from his fiancee. He enlists in the war, fighting for the Union, losing many of his friends in battle, but when he returns he finds his "southern" love slowly drifting into a world of mental illness.
