Traveling with elusive jazz vocalist and trumpeter Chet Baker, filmmaker and photographer Bruce Weber weaves together the life story of a jazz great. Weber’s acclaimed documentary uses excerpts from Italian B movies, rare performance footage and candid interviews with Baker, musicians, friends, battling ex-wives and his children in what turned out to be the last year of his life. This evocative portrait of a troubled man who made beautiful music has introduced a whole new generation of jazz enthusiasts to the timeless talent of “the James Dean of jazz.” Winner of the 1989 Critics Prize at the Venice Film Festival. An Academy Award nominee for Best Documentary Feature.
