Born to Be Blue
horizontal line

After a Hollywood producer gets legendary, heroin-addicted jazz musician Chet Baker (Ethan Hawke), who is called the father of West Coast swing and is estranged from his parents (Stephen McHattie and Janet-Laine Green) in Oklahoma, out of an Italian jail in 1966 to star in a film to promote his comeback and then loses his front teeth when he was brutally beaten by his drug dealer in this factually inspired, engaging, well-acted, 97-minute loosely biopic film, he struggles with the help of his girlfriend (Carmen Ejogo) to get back on his feet to begin playing the trumpet again.
