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.
After attorney D.J. Farraday catches his father Del having an extra-marital affair at a San Francisco hotel, the two decide to take a trip to their isolated family cabin to talk things out. Instead they arrive to find Campbell, D.J.'s younger brother, waiting in the cabin for his boyfriend Billy, whom Del beat up last Christmas. Their ensuing family argument is suddenly interrupted by a knock on the cabin door by two escaped convicts who bait the men into a competition in which the stakes are deadly.
