"Goodbye Lover turns fantasy on its head to look at the world as it probably really is. Or then maybe it isn't. This film needed a special kind of music. It needed to be knowing, mysterious, and not be afraid to have its tongue in its cheek when it could find it - its tongue, that is, not its cheek; it always knew where that was.
John wrote a beautiful score, completely understanding the subtle line this movie treads between what is and what isn't. He helped make the movie fun, intriguing and just a little bit dangerous, which if we're lucky, maybe just what life is. I felt lucky to have John do the score." - Roland Joffé
