Let's Get Lost

USA/1988—directed by Bruce Weber | 120 min.

Let’s Get Lost is the most seductive jazz documentary ever made—and now even more captivating in this 4K restoration. Directed by photographer-turned-filmmaker Bruce Weber, the film chronicles the enigmatic jazz vocalist and trumpeter Chet Baker during what would become the final year of his life. 

With breathtaking black-and-white cinematography, Weber weaves rare performance footage with intimate interviews featuring Baker, his bandmates, children, and ex-wives. The result is a hauntingly beautiful portrait of a complicated artist and the cool, bittersweet romance of his music.

“Magical. Weber's visual intuitions are as lyrical as Baker's musical instincts.” –Pauline Kael, 5001 Nights at the Movies
