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.
Three men all meet interesting new women at the same time. Jimmy is drawn to a stripper in a peep show, though he tells his friends he met her elsewhere. Vinnie meets Jessie at a funeral, and Ralph has a one night stand with a girl who plans to become a nun as soon as she has had one sexual experience. Their relationships have varying degrees of success -- while Jimmy and Marita get on well, Jessie turns out to have a few surprises up her sleeve and shy Ralph's experience is necessarily brief.
