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.
A confirmed bachelor in a 19th century California boom town inherits three young orphans. After an earthquake shakes the town, the children find a gold nugget worth tens of thousands of dollars. But their newfound wealth creates more problems than it solves, so they agree to give the gold to two bumbling crooks. However, in order to get the gold back, they must steal it from the bank vault where it is being held for safe keeping.
