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 10 year old girl is found strangled in a small town in Brittany. When newly promoted detective Lesage begins to investigate, she interviews the last person to see the girl alive: art teacher Rene. But in this remote community, Rene and his wife have always been outsiders, not natives although they have lived there for years. Suspicion and rumor grow, and soon more violence shakes the town.
