Rating:  - It is his most emotional!
I viewed this movie a long time ago, because I, too, was a La Femme Nikita fan, and because an admirer of Mr. Dupuis' work after this particular movie. I would like to add that this movie was also admitted to Cannes of that year, and it was Mr. Dupuis' first major role. He killed in this movie, literally and figuratively. He was both emotional and sensual in his portrayal of a streetwise prostitute who murdered his lover for no apparent reason it seemed, except in his own mind, with flashbacks ... Read More
Rating: - Being At Home With Claude
Fans of "La Femme Nikita" finally get to see Roy Dupuis emote in this chamber drama. Dupuis plays Yves, a tortured prostitute, who has murdered his lover. The film plays out as a police interrogation, the detective slowing drawing out the harrowing details from Yves.
If you are looking for a police drama with lots of action, this is not the movie for you. If you appreciate intricate character studies, then "Being At Home With Claude" delivers.

Rating:  - Yummy Roy at his best!
I watched this video today. I was alittle annoyed by the english subtitles but couldn't keep my eyes off of the beautiful speciman of a man! Roy is delicious!He looked so good! I felt it really showed what a great actor he could be! If you like Roy you will put up with the subtitles!It's worth reading them!
Rating: - WELL...I USED TO LOVE HIM..BUT I HAD TO KILL HIM...
Very dark side of of the gay genre, but certainly not unbelievable.( since the opening scene is the murder of one of the actors, this should not give the plot away) as most of the movie is about,"why yves did it". I'm sure this is not the first film about killing the one you love... and It will not be the last. Mr. GoodBar comes to mind, but he was just a nut out to get his jollies at the right moment.
As Yves tells the inspector,'you cannot explain it in words, it doesn't work, the feelings ... Read More
Rating: - Emotional rollercoaster ride
First thing: 5 stars is not enough for this movie. It won Dupuis some awards and it should have won him even more. The whole movie is staged in one room - the Judge's office- with the occasional flashback into Yves'(Dupuis)life and the circumstances that got him to kill the person he loved most. With Yves is a police-officer who in the beginning doesn't care about Yves at all and expresses his disgust quite openly but Yves doesn't give an inch - he knows he is guilty and he wants to be punished. That's ... Read More
