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.
Four siblings struggle to banish the ghost of their dead father and create some semblance of harmony using a college on New York's Upper East Side as their surrogate home. Flashing between the chaos of Manhattan and the seemingly perfect sanctuary of Charleston, the three sisters and a brother recall the simpler life the family left in their childhood home, as they peel back the layers of their pretenses and self-deceptions with wit and candor. Their final realization is that chaos and violence lie within the heart, and the only defenses are love and honesty.
