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.
Outside a city, during a war, Niko, a young man on the run, stumbles across three others in a bunker. They capture and torture him, but then decide to allow him to join them. They claim to be awaiting orders from a distant HQ, but there are no signs that they are telling the truth. Niko becomes a challenge to the absolute authority of their leader, Leo, and the group begins to crack under the pressure.
