Jean-Hughes Anglade is a lonely, isolated young man who lets no one get close to him. He meets a street hustler and comes out of his shell, going 180 degrees into gay Obsession. Though he has yet to physically approach the object of his affection, Anglade builds up so much unrequited lust that it explodes with horrible results. L'Homme Blesse isn't rated, but viewership should definitely be confined to those older than 21--and even some of them may not be ready for it. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Austin Kennedy, Film Geek Central
The story meanders and it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense by the end of the movie.
-
Nick Davis, Nick's Flick Picks
A bleak and grotty film, turgidly stereotypical in its view of homosexual life - but it's exceptionally well-acted, and consistent in its point of view.
