Bruce Weber's documentary looks at the life of jazz trumpeter Chet Baker. It juxtaposes footage from his early life with interviews with him and his family in his last years. Baker's life was packed with incident, including three marriages, four children, heroin use, imprisonment in Italy, and an impressive body of music.
