It’s a crime that this wonderful documentary is available in North America as VHS only (and that’s likely out-of-print by now). Help…somebody?! Please put this out on DVD for USA/Canada!
This is a great film, recapping the life (near it’s end at the time the film was made) of trumpet great Chet Baker.

If you are reading this you probably know the basics - rapid rise to jazz stardom in the early fifties, natural talent (self taught, did not read music) records landmark versions of “You Don’t Know What Love Is,” “The Thrill Is Gone” and “My Funny Valentine” (to name a few), develops a truly unique, somewhat androgenous vocal style (haunting does not do it justice) and then descends into a lifelong drug addiction (outliving virtually all of his cohorts who traveled the same road) which, over time, only adds to the legend. He never kicked dope and was fairly unapologetic about it. Moved all over the place in Europe(where he became something akin to a God in jazz fan circles - especially in Italy). In and out of jail - you name it, he did it.
Of course, he had all the traits of a junkie - manipulative, selfish, focused on his habit to the exclusion of almost everything else….almost. He continued making great music, to one extent or other, up until the day he fell to his death from a hotel window. This film catches up with him near the end and contains great interviews with Baker himself, many of his former cronies, friends, lovers.

It’s shot in beautiful black and white and is really a stunning, unusual bio-pic of an amazingly interesting (but more to the point - talented) guy. Look close and you will see young Chris Isaak and Flea, from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Why this is not on DVD is beyond me. If you are interested enough in this subject to be reading this, go to ebay - occassionally it is available there on video. Also, there is a great book about Baker, titled Deep In A Dream (James Gavin).
