Let's Get Lost
1988 · Film · documentary · 120 min
Directed by Bruce Weber
Documentary about jazz great Chet Baker that intercuts footage from the 1950s, when he was part of West Coast Cool, and from his last years. We see the young Baker, he of the beautiful face, in California and in Italy, where he appeared in at least one movie and at least one jail cell (for drug possession). And, we see the aged Baker, detached, indifferent, his face a ruin. Includes interviews with his children and ex-wife, women companions, and musicians.

If you are interested in learning more, "Let's Get Lost" is a great film https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let%27s_Get_Lost_(1988_film)
Also, for a less obvious choice of record to check out, "Silence" with Charlie Haden is a really lovely album from towards the end of his life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silence_(Charlie_Haden_album)
