Movies and TvShows featuring "scrubbing-floor" theme.

Love the Hard Way is a story about a young thief who is recruited by a seductive woman to participate in a series of robberies. As their relationship unfolds, they become entangled in a web of self-destructiveness and secret agendas. Set in the urban setting of New York City, the movie explores themes of love, betrayal, and the consequences of one's actions.

Three stories. We see, but little is explained. In "The Married Couple," a salesman pays a call on an old customer who is with his wife in the upstairs bedroom of their ill adult son. Another salesman may beat him to the punch, but not before disorienting changes. A maid scrubs the floor. "In the Penal Colony": a man arrives at a penal colony where an officer demonstrates a bizarre apparatus, one that punches a message into the skin of a prisoner strapped beneath it. Who will be punished? In "Fratricide," a man is murdered at night by someone he knows well. A woman grieves.

=The movie portrays seven wayward men who suffer within the walls of the national penitentiary. They serve their sentences as if they are living their regular free, luxurious lives outside the cold bars of the prison, in open air, able to go where they want when they want. Four of the men - Nandong, Noel, Butch, and Caloy - are gay men who feel attracted to Steve Guanzon and eventually sodomize and rape him.

“Ciske de Rat” belongs to the Dickensean “little man’s hard life” model and tells a deceptively simple story about a boy in modern Netherlands. Persecution, loneliness, adults’ hostility, fear, mixture of obstinacy and tenderness, and even an imprisonment. Excellent camera movement and delicate portraying of Ciske’s fragile soul put this film out of merely historical context and ensure its place in the history of great cinema.

A collection of gags set inside a prison.

In this comedic Pete Smith Specialty short, average housewife Mrs. George T. Hardnose's day is recalled.
