He also speaks with an Eastern European prostitute in a hotel room, but seems uninterested in having sex with her, and asks her some questions.

Claire Dolan premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May 1998,[2] and was given a limited release in the United States on February 25, 2000.

[1] In a review that gave 3 and 1/2 stars out of 4, Roger Ebert wrote Claire Dolan "is a film about a woman whose knowledge of men encompasses everything except how to trust them and find happiness with them", and that Kerrigan "accepts the challenge of central characters who do not let us know what they're thinking.

"[3] Stephen Holden of The New York Times wrote, "the movie devotes so much of its energy to building and sustaining a mood of urban desolation that the story never quite jells.

"[1] However, he praised "Cartlidge's beautifully still performance, mournful one moment, defiant the next, [that] lets you see into Claire's soul without editorializing or begging for our empathy.

"[1] The film received nominations for three Independent Spirit Awards, including Best Feature for producer Ann Ruark, Best Director for Kerrigan, and Best Female Lead for Cartlidge.

[4] Simon Fisher Turner won the Georges Delerue Award for Best Soundtrack/Sound Design at Film Fest Gent in 1998.
