"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."
