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.
In a set of swanky Rio apartments, everything seems to occur in pairs, from the twinned abodes to the matching ways in which each couple's relationship comes crashing to the ground. On one side live photographer Ana with hubby-author Carlos, while directly across the street bored trophy wife and model Andrea constantly squabbles with her spouse Miguel. Hungry for affection, Ana sleeps with a former lover. When Miguel runs into his own ex-lover at a pool party, his wife calls out her cheating husband. Tragedy after tragedy ensues.
