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.
After being accused of a crime he didn't commit, a young man flees Mexico City and hides in Muerdago, a small village where his uncle, Ramon, lives, to wait for the confusion to clear up. Ramon, the richest man in the region, is childless and sick, and his nephew's arrival is a pleasant surprise. However, local family members, anxious about their inheritance, are not pleased to see Marcos.
