Legendary photographer Bruce Weber once again created a masterpiece when he turned the movie camera on American Icon and Jazz legend Chet Baker. Weber’s raw and candid documentary gives the world an intimate look at the bumpy and sad life of this sincere, Olkahoma boy who despite his unique talents, got lost in his incurable vices. Many esteemed Baker as the best trumpeter of his time and rightfully so. For me he took root in my heart the first time I heard his calming, childlike, velvety voice on Dad’s record player. “Let’s Get Lost” which inspired the movie, “I’ve Never Been In Love Before, “Someone To Watch Over Me” and one of my personal favorite, “My Funny Valentine” are only a few masterpieces Chet Baker bequeath the world of music. Let’s Get Lost, is a heartbreakingly beautiful film, with some unforgettable music. Yes it’s dark at times and raw to the core, but isn’t also the world pool that is life, which one can easily get lost in!
