119 mins - United States 1988 - Documentary
Director: Bruce Weber
Featuring: Chet Baker, Carol Baker and Vera Baker
LET’S GET LOST presents the story of the late jazz great Chet Baker. His James Dean
looks and cool sound - characterised by some of the most lyrical trumpet playing and jazz
vocals ever heard - set Baker apart from the other musicians of his time. But his issues with
narcotic addiction also gave a generation of jazz fans a “doomed youth” of their very own.
Bruce Weber’s acclaimed film received an Academy Award nomination for Best
Documentary and won the Critic’s Prize at the Venice Film Festival.
“This is simply the finest jazz documentary ever made.” Empire
