"A love story of two damaged people who go on an adventure. I love the relationship between the two of them; she never judges him, they just commit to each other, go on this fucked-up journey and have each other's backs. And they do it with such style!"

"I loved that about Lenny as well — it combines this documentary feel and captures a spirit of who the true people were, separate from who the performer was. I love that sort of dialogue in cinema in general. It’s sort of the difference between the private and the public."

"This is an odd one, and it’s only because of the performance. Dexter Gordon’s performance is maybe the best acting I’ve ever seen. How spontaneous and organic it is, and people say to me, “Yeah, but Gordon isn’t an actor; he’s playing himself,” and I say I don’t care."

"I wrote my thesis on this prophetic Graham Greene novel about the dangers of American involvement in Vietnam, set in the 1950s before most people knew we were operating in Vietnam at all. In a very jaded, British way, Greene points out the dangers of well-intentioned interventions."
