Charlotte Ayanna is a sweet college girl who gets conned into the titular fun of Love the Hard Way (2001)--thanks to Adrien Brody as a grifting lowlife who wins over the gullible young thing. This romance includes some strange and sexy twists, especially when Brody’s bad influence leads to Charlotte working as a prostitute. For the line of work that Charlotte falls into, we expected a lot more detailed client information! There’s a good look at Brody’s broad brawn hambamb, but other than that we’re pretty much stuck at love the soft way.
