1
00:02:13.551 --> 00:02:15.803
Chet Baker. Come on. Give us a smile.

2
00:02:15.928 --> 00:02:18.848
Are you coming to the show?

3
00:02:18.973 --> 00:02:21.684
Who do you like better,
me or Miles Davis?

4
00:02:21.809 --> 00:02:24.395
<i>We're proud to present the man
voted number one in the nation</i>

5
00:02:24.603 --> 00:02:26.313
for both trumpet and vocals.

6
00:02:26.438 --> 00:02:29.191
All the way from
the sunny shores of California.

7
00:02:29.316 --> 00:02:31.610
The James Dean of jazz,
the Prince of Cool.

8
00:02:31.735 --> 00:02:35.531
The man <i>Time</i> magazine credits
with inventing West Coast swing.

9
00:02:37.533 --> 00:02:39.243
That's right, folks.

10
00:02:39.368 --> 00:02:42.329
And he's here playing a double bill
with our very own

11
00:02:42.454 --> 00:02:44.748
Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie!

12
00:02:46.125 --> 00:02:51.714
Making his Birdland debut,
Chet Baker and his quartet!

13
00:02:53.382 --> 00:02:55.426
It's going to be great.
It's going to be great.

14
00:02:55.593 --> 00:02:57.761
- How do I look?
- Perfect.

15
00:04:41.407 --> 00:04:43.075
Yeah, baby! Yeah!

16
00:04:46.537 --> 00:04:47.913
Thank you.

17
00:04:48.038 --> 00:04:50.374
- Thank you very much.
- We love you, Chet!

18
00:05:24.158 --> 00:05:25.326
Shh!

19
00:05:26.702 --> 00:05:28.495
Elaine? Honey?

20
00:05:36.045 --> 00:05:37.129
Yeah!

21
00:05:46.555 --> 00:05:48.557
And then you wait till it melts.

22
00:05:48.724 --> 00:05:50.768
I can't believe
you never tried it before.

23
00:05:50.893 --> 00:05:55.022
- You're so square.
- I hate needles.

24
00:05:55.189 --> 00:05:57.649
- Will you do it for me?
- Yeah.

25
00:05:59.151 --> 00:06:01.612
- Hello, fear.
- Hello, fear.

26
00:06:01.779 --> 00:06:03.739
Tight...

27
00:06:03.864 --> 00:06:05.783
- Hello, death.
- Hello, death.

28
00:06:07.493 --> 00:06:09.995
- Fuck you.
- Fuck you.

29
00:06:33.102 --> 00:06:34.353
Oh, hey, babe.

30
00:06:36.271 --> 00:06:39.274
- Hey... You better...
- Get out.

31
00:06:39.400 --> 00:06:41.819
Get out! And take your shit with you!

32
00:06:43.278 --> 00:06:46.824
And you, too! I should have known!

33
00:06:46.949 --> 00:06:48.283
- Stop it!
- Just come here...

34
00:06:48.409 --> 00:06:51.662
- Goddamn it! It's, like, a week!
- I'm sorry.

35
00:06:51.829 --> 00:06:55.207
- You're such a child.
- But you love me, hm?

36
00:06:59.461 --> 00:07:01.338
What is this shit?

37
00:07:01.463 --> 00:07:04.258
What is this shit?

38
00:07:04.383 --> 00:07:06.593
You did this because of Miles?

39
00:07:06.718 --> 00:07:09.805
Chet? Say something!

40
00:07:12.474 --> 00:07:17.563
Shh... See? Once you're here,

41
00:07:17.688 --> 00:07:21.024
it's like you're crawling back inside
your momma's womb. Hm?

42
00:07:21.150 --> 00:07:25.237
The clinking and clanging...
it all melts away.

43
00:07:26.196 --> 00:07:27.239
And you can hear.

44
00:07:27.364 --> 00:07:31.034
This is the scene where you're meant
to do heroin for the first time.

45
00:07:31.201 --> 00:07:33.120
- I know what scene it is.
- You made up lines.

46
00:07:33.287 --> 00:07:35.164
Well, he told me to make up lines.

47
00:07:35.330 --> 00:07:37.583
He said he wanted it to be improv.

48
00:07:37.708 --> 00:07:40.878
- But that's way off script, come on.
- Well, the whole thing is fake.

49
00:07:41.003 --> 00:07:42.087
If you want it to be real,

50
00:07:42.212 --> 00:07:44.131
- there should be puke everywhere.
- Cut!

51
00:07:44.256 --> 00:07:46.884
It wasn't like this at all.
I was 22, for fuck's sake.

52
00:07:47.009 --> 00:07:48.635
That was way, way off script, Chet.

53
00:07:48.844 --> 00:07:51.013
- I dunno what the fuck I'm doing.
- Know your lines!

54
00:07:51.138 --> 00:07:52.681
Can we just do the make-out part again?

55
00:07:52.848 --> 00:07:53.974
I lost a nail.

56
00:07:55.976 --> 00:07:58.645
Do you want to rehearse the scene
or do you want to pick up on Monday?

57
00:07:58.770 --> 00:08:02.316
- We'll pick it up Monday.
- Alright, folks, that's a wrap.

58
00:08:02.441 --> 00:08:05.152
- See you next week.
- Unprofessional, Chet.

59
00:08:05.277 --> 00:08:09.281
- Jane? Jane, that was great.
- I don't think so.

60
00:08:09.990 --> 00:08:11.742
- Keep doing what you're doing.
- You sure?

61
00:08:11.909 --> 00:08:13.702
Yeah, just keep improvising,
you'll be OK.

62
00:08:13.911 --> 00:08:15.704
Alright. Appreciate it.

63
00:08:15.871 --> 00:08:17.498
Thanks, Ellie.

64
00:08:24.213 --> 00:08:27.257
What I'm doing is trying
to make him look like a nice guy.

65
00:08:27.382 --> 00:08:30.052
No, no, what you're doing
is making me look like a clown!

66
00:08:30.177 --> 00:08:34.014
- Oh, are you Dick Bock?
- Yes. Yeah, I...

67
00:08:34.139 --> 00:08:36.475
- Chettie!
- Hey, Dick.

68
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:38.519
Why didn't you tell me
you were back in the US?

69
00:08:38.644 --> 00:08:40.562
- And now you're shooting a movie?
- Well, I...

70
00:08:40.687 --> 00:08:42.731
I thought you had another couple
of years in jail.

71
00:08:42.898 --> 00:08:44.483
Well, I was supposed to, you know,

72
00:08:44.608 --> 00:08:47.528
but then this director, he's like...
He's super talented.

73
00:08:47.653 --> 00:08:49.613
Oh, yeah, and he offered you
a lot of money?

74
00:08:49.738 --> 00:08:51.949
Well, he paid somebody, that's for sure.

75
00:08:52.074 --> 00:08:54.701
I could've played myself, Chet.

76
00:08:54.826 --> 00:08:56.453
Dick, you're not... you're not an actor.

77
00:08:56.620 --> 00:08:59.623
- Neither are you.
- Well, that's true!

78
00:08:59.790 --> 00:09:01.625
Don't tell anyone!

79
00:09:03.293 --> 00:09:04.461
A lot's, uh...

80
00:09:04.586 --> 00:09:07.548
- A lot's changed since you left.
- Yeah. I see.

81
00:09:07.673 --> 00:09:09.174
Jazz is dying.

82
00:09:09.299 --> 00:09:10.842
Dylan went electric.

83
00:09:12.386 --> 00:09:14.263
You sold Pacific, Dick.

84
00:09:14.429 --> 00:09:17.349
No, I built it up. You tore it down.
I built it up.

85
00:09:17.474 --> 00:09:19.935
- We built it up.
- You tore it down.

86
00:09:20.060 --> 00:09:22.354
And you sold it out.

87
00:09:22.563 --> 00:09:25.649
I sold...? At least
I didn't abandon my wife and kid

88
00:09:25.816 --> 00:09:27.734
and become the world's biggest junkie.

89
00:09:31.196 --> 00:09:33.532
I did fuck everything up, didn't I?

90
00:09:38.787 --> 00:09:40.581
I miss you, Dick. I really do.

91
00:09:40.706 --> 00:09:43.083
- Chet!
- I just wish you would've called.

92
00:09:43.208 --> 00:09:46.753
Two seconds, OK?
I should've called. I'm sorry.

93
00:09:46.878 --> 00:09:49.256
Yeah.

94
00:09:49.381 --> 00:09:50.966
You remember that old pharmacist

95
00:09:51.091 --> 00:09:53.510
that used to give us prescriptions
for those morphines?

96
00:09:53.635 --> 00:09:55.053
Yeah. Oh, you liked him!

97
00:09:55.178 --> 00:09:57.222
I have to be high
before I get my finger outta my ass!

98
00:09:57.347 --> 00:09:58.724
- Chet!
- Yeah, two seconds.

99
00:09:58.849 --> 00:10:01.768
- What happened to him?
- He's in jail.

100
00:10:03.478 --> 00:10:06.857
Aren't you on...
Aren't you on the straight and narrow?

101
00:10:06.982 --> 00:10:08.483
- Oh, yeah.
- Yeah?

102
00:10:08.609 --> 00:10:11.778
- Yeah. Clean as a hound's tooth.
- Great.

103
00:10:12.487 --> 00:10:16.617
Alright. Let's get together. Alright?

104
00:10:16.742 --> 00:10:19.494
Let's talk about doing another record.

105
00:10:19.620 --> 00:10:22.164
- I would like that very much, Dick.
- We're grown-ups now.

106
00:10:22.289 --> 00:10:25.000
- Let's do another record.
- Let's do it. That'd be great.

107
00:10:25.125 --> 00:10:26.835
Alright. Hey, Nick, is everything OK?

108
00:10:27.002 --> 00:10:28.670
It's going great. It's gonna be great.

109
00:10:28.795 --> 00:10:31.506
Look, tomorrow, the studio booked
another press conference.

110
00:10:31.632 --> 00:10:33.759
- Another press...?
- The afternoon, one o'clock.

111
00:10:33.884 --> 00:10:35.385
- Hi, Chet.
- One o'clock? OK.

112
00:10:35.510 --> 00:10:37.471
How's it going with you and Jane?
Everything OK?

113
00:10:37.596 --> 00:10:39.139
I don't know. I mean, you tell me.

114
00:10:39.264 --> 00:10:42.517
I think it's great. I can trust what
you're doing, like when you play music.

115
00:10:42.643 --> 00:10:44.645
This movie will re-launch your career,
Chettie

116
00:10:45.729 --> 00:10:47.481
- Jane!
- Hey, Nick.

117
00:10:47.606 --> 00:10:49.149
What's wrong?

118
00:10:49.316 --> 00:10:51.610
I don't know.
I mean, do you think it's working?

119
00:10:51.735 --> 00:10:53.028
I think it's great.

120
00:10:53.153 --> 00:10:55.906
What the two of you are doing...
The improvisation is fantastic.

121
00:10:56.073 --> 00:10:59.409
I need to know more than just that
I'm playing "the women of Chet Baker".

122
00:10:59.534 --> 00:11:03.288
And you're doing it brilliantly.
Ask him, it's his story.

123
00:11:03.413 --> 00:11:05.749
All I know is that they have big tits.

124
00:11:05.916 --> 00:11:09.836
- Like... It's not a lot to go on!
- Well, it's his story. Ask him.

125
00:11:09.961 --> 00:11:11.963
- Nick, you coming?
- They did have big tits.

126
00:11:12.172 --> 00:11:14.299
Hang on a second.
We'll talk about this Monday, OK?

127
00:11:14.424 --> 00:11:16.510
- OK. Sounds good.
- Alright.

128
00:11:16.635 --> 00:11:19.221
Big scenes. Europe next week. Ciao.

129
00:11:20.097 --> 00:11:22.891
Don't be insecure about your tits.
Your tits are great.

130
00:11:23.058 --> 00:11:24.393
OK, so, the script...

131
00:11:24.518 --> 00:11:27.312
Uh... I don't understand
why these women would stay with you.

132
00:11:27.437 --> 00:11:29.439
- You don't understand that?
- No. Don't get it.

133
00:11:29.564 --> 00:11:31.942
Maybe we should go to dinner,
get some real food...

134
00:11:32.109 --> 00:11:34.069
What, you saying that I ain't real,
mister?

135
00:11:34.194 --> 00:11:36.697
I'm saying that maybe you need
to get deeper into character.

136
00:11:36.822 --> 00:11:39.700
I don't date actors I'm working with,
Chet. I already told you that.

137
00:11:39.825 --> 00:11:42.661
- Yeah, but I'm not an actor.
- Yeah, that's for sure!

138
00:11:42.786 --> 00:11:45.831
No, we can get together and do those
kazoon exercises some time.

139
00:11:45.956 --> 00:11:47.290
It's kaizen, you dummy!

140
00:11:47.416 --> 00:11:49.918
I don't care. We'll just rehearse
while we eat, you know.

141
00:11:50.085 --> 00:11:51.628
We could order in if we want.

142
00:11:51.795 --> 00:11:55.424
You know everything about me,
and I don't even know your last name.

143
00:11:55.549 --> 00:11:58.218
- It's on the call sheet every day.
- It is?

144
00:11:58.343 --> 00:12:01.430
- Hm-hm.
- Can I...? I don't like this thing.

145
00:12:01.555 --> 00:12:03.432
- What? I've got food on my face?
- Beauty mark.

146
00:12:03.557 --> 00:12:06.810
You're prettier without it.
Come on, let's go out. Have some laughs.

147
00:12:06.935 --> 00:12:09.896
- You don't strike me as funny.
- I'm funny.

148
00:12:10.021 --> 00:12:12.899
What's heavier,
a full moon or a half moon?

149
00:12:13.024 --> 00:12:15.944
A full moon, because it's lighter!

150
00:12:16.111 --> 00:12:17.195
Not so good.

151
00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:18.572
- It's not funny?
- No.

152
00:12:18.697 --> 00:12:21.032
- I have better material. Top shelf.
- Azuka.

153
00:12:21.199 --> 00:12:23.118
- What's that mean?
- That's my last name.

154
00:12:23.243 --> 00:12:25.787
It's African, and it means "past glory."

155
00:12:36.339 --> 00:12:39.134
Now, see...
You're not following through.

156
00:12:40.260 --> 00:12:42.179
- Just show me.
- Alright, alright, alright...

157
00:12:42.304 --> 00:12:43.722
Just lay it out there.

158
00:12:47.893 --> 00:12:50.020
Well, that's another goose egg for you.

159
00:12:50.228 --> 00:12:54.065
Come on! You are really competitive.

160
00:12:56.318 --> 00:13:01.448
I guess they didn't teach you about
bowling back there at acting school?

161
00:13:01.573 --> 00:13:02.699
Very funny!

162
00:13:02.824 --> 00:13:06.036
I was supposed to be an academic,
actually, like my parents.

163
00:13:06.203 --> 00:13:08.538
- And my brothers.
- But then what happened?

164
00:13:08.663 --> 00:13:13.543
Oh, I fell in love with musicals
on Broadway. I studied jazz.

165
00:13:13.668 --> 00:13:16.505
- Did you? What instrument?
- Piano. Voice.

166
00:13:26.389 --> 00:13:30.560
I've never been with a woman
who knew anything at all about music.

167
00:13:30.685 --> 00:13:36.691
- So, what did Elaine like to do?
- Elaine? Mostly she liked to fuck.

168
00:13:36.817 --> 00:13:39.611
She liked to fuck,
and I liked fucking her.

169
00:13:41.488 --> 00:13:44.115
What? What?

170
00:13:44.282 --> 00:13:46.660
I don't know.
Your songs are so romantic.

171
00:13:48.286 --> 00:13:50.205
But I guess
you never wrote them, right?

172
00:13:50.330 --> 00:13:51.456
Uh-uh.

173
00:13:51.581 --> 00:13:54.376
One time we did it seven times
in two hours.

174
00:13:54.501 --> 00:13:56.253
What do you think about that?

175
00:13:56.878 --> 00:13:59.297
Sounds like you fuck too fast.

176
00:13:59.923 --> 00:14:03.260
Oh! I do better when I'm high.

177
00:14:08.765 --> 00:14:10.725
So you're really a junkie?

178
00:14:15.105 --> 00:14:17.148
I got some habits.

179
00:14:18.275 --> 00:14:20.735
So, what, your parents
didn't love you enough or something?

180
00:14:20.902 --> 00:14:21.945
No.

181
00:14:22.946 --> 00:14:24.614
It's nobody's fault.

182
00:14:26.867 --> 00:14:30.370
So why are you
such a fuck-up, then? Huh?

183
00:14:32.122 --> 00:14:35.125
You want to know?
Do you want to know the truth?

184
00:14:35.292 --> 00:14:37.002
Yeah, I want to know the truth.

185
00:14:40.422 --> 00:14:46.344
It makes me happy. I love to get high.

186
00:14:47.721 --> 00:14:50.140
Well, at least you're honest.

187
00:14:51.516 --> 00:14:55.729
What about you, huh?
Why are you such a fuck-up?

188
00:14:57.272 --> 00:15:00.525
- I'm not a fuck-up.
- Oh, yeah, you are.

189
00:15:00.650 --> 00:15:02.819
Yeah, you're an actress, aren't you?

190
00:15:02.944 --> 00:15:05.947
- All actresses are fuck-ups?
- Yeah, well...

191
00:15:07.032 --> 00:15:09.659
What is it they say about Hollywood?

192
00:15:09.784 --> 00:15:13.288
They'll pay you two grand for a kiss
and two bucks for your soul.

193
00:15:13.872 --> 00:15:17.792
- You know who said that?
- No.

194
00:15:17.918 --> 00:15:19.461
Marilyn Monroe.

195
00:15:20.921 --> 00:15:22.714
Closing time, folks.

196
00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:26.676
We sing, you know that song...

197
00:15:26.801 --> 00:15:33.808
<i>♪ I've never been in love before</i>

198
00:15:35.644 --> 00:15:39.731
<i>♪ Now all at once, it's you...</i>

199
00:15:39.856 --> 00:15:41.691
You know that, right?

200
00:15:41.816 --> 00:15:46.571
<i>♪ It's you, forevermore</i>

201
00:15:48.907 --> 00:15:57.248
<i>♪ I've never been in love before</i>

202
00:15:58.875 --> 00:16:01.628
<i>♪ I thought my heart</i>

203
00:16:02.462 --> 00:16:03.838
<i>♪ Was safe</i>

204
00:16:07.425 --> 00:16:09.135
<i>♪ I thought I...</i>

205
00:16:10.762 --> 00:16:14.599
Why don't you come back with me
to my place so we can sing?

206
00:16:16.851 --> 00:16:18.561
That's not a good idea.

207
00:16:20.814 --> 00:16:25.318
- Listen, I know all about you.
- What do you know?

208
00:16:25.443 --> 00:16:26.736
I know you're trouble.

209
00:16:28.780 --> 00:16:30.365
Trouble's good for you.

210
00:16:33.410 --> 00:16:36.997
That's why your playing touches people.

211
00:16:37.122 --> 00:16:38.915
It's like what Chekhov said.

212
00:16:39.040 --> 00:16:40.917
When his patients were in a fever,

213
00:16:41.042 --> 00:16:46.464
you know what kind of food
they liked to eat? Something sour.

214
00:16:46.589 --> 00:16:51.469
And my dad read me all the philosophers
before I was a teenager, but Chekhov...?

215
00:16:52.595 --> 00:16:57.142
He thought that the feelings that
we experience when we're in love

216
00:16:57.308 --> 00:16:59.519
are our normal state.

217
00:17:00.854 --> 00:17:04.441
That being in love shows a person
who he should really be. I love....

218
00:17:04.607 --> 00:17:05.734
Remember me, Chettie?

219
00:17:05.859 --> 00:17:07.569
Fuck him up!

220
00:17:07.736 --> 00:17:09.904
Oh, Chet!

221
00:17:10.613 --> 00:17:11.781
Chet!

222
00:17:13.408 --> 00:17:14.909
Did you forget what you owe us, Chet?

223
00:17:15.910 --> 00:17:17.579
Fucking junkie!

224
00:17:20.665 --> 00:17:22.667
- Come here!
- Stop it!

225
00:17:23.918 --> 00:17:24.878
Help!

226
00:17:25.003 --> 00:17:26.629
Stop!

227
00:17:32.302 --> 00:17:34.512
No more jazz, motherfucker!

228
00:17:40.101 --> 00:17:42.604
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Help!

229
00:17:42.729 --> 00:17:44.272
Help!

230
00:17:56.201 --> 00:17:58.369
<i>He's got severe trauma to the neck,</i>

231
00:17:58.536 --> 00:18:00.580
<i>possible fracture of the cheek.</i>

232
00:18:00.705 --> 00:18:02.582
<i>He's lost all his front teeth.</i>

233
00:18:02.707 --> 00:18:04.584
Chet? It's Jane.

234
00:18:05.627 --> 00:18:07.837
You look like shit.

235
00:18:08.922 --> 00:18:10.298
You're going to be OK.

236
00:18:11.674 --> 00:18:13.093
<i>You know what an embouchure is?</i>

237
00:18:13.218 --> 00:18:15.095
<i>It's like a piano player
not having any hands.</i>

238
00:18:15.220 --> 00:18:18.014
<i>Twenty-eight years of practice, gone!</i>

239
00:18:18.139 --> 00:18:20.517
<i>He'll never play again.</i>

240
00:18:25.522 --> 00:18:27.482
<i>From Hollywood, in a dramatic U-turn,</i>

241
00:18:27.607 --> 00:18:29.943
<i>the studio is now shelving
the Chet Baker movie</i>

242
00:18:30.068 --> 00:18:31.861
<i>which was meant to launch</i>

243
00:18:31.986 --> 00:18:34.155
<i>the recently paroled
jazz legend's comeback.</i>

244
00:18:34.322 --> 00:18:35.615
They haven't called me.

245
00:18:35.740 --> 00:18:37.826
They can't shelve the movie
that quickly.

246
00:18:37.951 --> 00:18:40.245
That was no stranger.
That was Chet's dealer.

247
00:18:40.370 --> 00:18:43.915
Do you think the studio's
gonna have anything to do with this?

248
00:18:44.040 --> 00:18:45.333
Just wake up.

249
00:18:47.085 --> 00:18:51.631
OK, wait... Somebody must
be able to help. I mean, somehow.

250
00:18:51.756 --> 00:18:56.886
Yeah, how many people have called?
How many people have come to visit?

251
00:18:57.011 --> 00:18:59.639
We're all here.

252
00:18:59.764 --> 00:19:01.599
This is everybody.

253
00:19:02.142 --> 00:19:03.852
And I'm leaving.

254
00:19:08.106 --> 00:19:10.650
I looked after you for 13 years, Chet.

255
00:19:11.693 --> 00:19:13.403
Alright? But I'm done. I'm done.

256
00:19:16.114 --> 00:19:17.657
This is such a mess.

257
00:19:17.782 --> 00:19:19.576
How long have you known him?

258
00:19:20.618 --> 00:19:22.120
Five weeks.

259
00:19:22.287 --> 00:19:23.705
OK.

260
00:19:26.666 --> 00:19:28.960
Get clean, Chet.

261
00:19:57.363 --> 00:19:59.032
I spoke to your parole officer

262
00:19:59.157 --> 00:20:01.576
who says you'll be starting
methadone treatment,

263
00:20:01.701 --> 00:20:05.163
so, unfortunately, I can't prescribe
any pain medication.

264
00:20:10.877 --> 00:20:12.128
Just hang in there.

265
00:20:12.295 --> 00:20:14.964
And avoid any stress
to your mouth, OK?

266
00:21:20.530 --> 00:21:22.448
- How'd we do?
- Brilliant, Chettie.

267
00:21:22.573 --> 00:21:24.367
- Sensational! Amazing!
- Where's Elaine?

268
00:21:24.492 --> 00:21:27.704
Ah, Elaine, did you hear that? Huh?

269
00:21:27.829 --> 00:21:29.080
Come on, Miles asked to see you.

270
00:21:29.205 --> 00:21:31.249
Come on, come on! Chettie, Miles!

271
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:36.170
<i>Chet just wanted to say hi
before your set, Miles.</i>

272
00:21:36.296 --> 00:21:38.047
This is Elaine.

273
00:21:38.172 --> 00:21:39.257
How are you doing?

274
00:21:39.382 --> 00:21:40.383
Hi.

275
00:21:40.508 --> 00:21:42.510
- You dig the show?
- It was nice.

276
00:21:42.677 --> 00:21:48.391
Yeah. A lot of pretty faces.
It was, um... sweet.

277
00:21:49.017 --> 00:21:50.601
Like candy.

278
00:21:59.068 --> 00:22:02.447
Must be real hard
posing for all these pretty pictures.

279
00:22:02.572 --> 00:22:04.574
I'm just trying to sell records, right?

280
00:22:04.741 --> 00:22:07.952
Right. Let me tell you something.

281
00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:13.291
I never trust a cat
who'd let loot or love affect his art.

282
00:22:13.416 --> 00:22:15.626
You think them silly white girls
out there

283
00:22:15.793 --> 00:22:17.503
understand a lick about yo ass?

284
00:22:17.628 --> 00:22:19.839
He's number one
in the polls, Miles.

285
00:22:24.344 --> 00:22:27.347
Is this your great white hope,
sweetheart?

286
00:22:27.472 --> 00:22:30.099
Standing right here? Is this it?

287
00:22:30.224 --> 00:22:32.268
You want some advice, Baker?

288
00:22:32.393 --> 00:22:36.314
Go back home to the beach, man.
This ain't the place for you.

289
00:22:36.439 --> 00:22:39.233
Come back when you've lived a little.

290
00:23:30.451 --> 00:23:33.162
<i>- Hello, fear.</i>
<i>- Hello, fear.</i>

291
00:23:34.664 --> 00:23:37.500
<i>- Hello, death.</i>
<i>- Hello, death.</i>

292
00:23:38.334 --> 00:23:39.669
<i>Fuck you.</i>

293
00:23:39.877 --> 00:23:41.295
<i>Fuck you.</i>

294
00:24:49.238 --> 00:24:52.658
Hey, Chet. You home?
You left the door open.

295
00:24:52.867 --> 00:24:55.036
I didn't get the job, so don't ask.

296
00:24:57.330 --> 00:24:59.415
What did you do?

297
00:25:02.376 --> 00:25:04.253
What did you do?

298
00:25:05.796 --> 00:25:08.591
Wake up! Wake up! Come on, Chet.

299
00:25:15.890 --> 00:25:18.059
Come on, come on.

300
00:25:18.184 --> 00:25:20.770
Why did you wake me up?

301
00:25:33.157 --> 00:25:36.744
You're going to kill yourself because
you can't play trumpet any more?

302
00:25:37.411 --> 00:25:38.663
Yes.

303
00:25:38.788 --> 00:25:41.249
Am I supposed to feel sorry for you?

304
00:25:43.209 --> 00:25:46.754
Play something else. Sing.

305
00:25:46.921 --> 00:25:49.632
Maybe we haven't been introduced.

306
00:25:50.675 --> 00:25:53.302
My name's Chet Baker.

307
00:25:53.427 --> 00:25:57.014
I'm one of the greatest trumpet players
of my generation.

308
00:25:57.139 --> 00:25:59.475
One of the best
jazz improvisationalists.

309
00:25:59.600 --> 00:26:02.270
- So it's trumpet or nothing?
- Yes.

310
00:26:02.395 --> 00:26:05.648
So maybe I should kill myself, too,
because I don't look like Vivien Leigh.

311
00:26:05.815 --> 00:26:09.235
You should find one thing
and be better at it

312
00:26:09.360 --> 00:26:12.238
- than anybody else in the world.
- That's easy for you to say.

313
00:26:12.363 --> 00:26:16.576
"I'm blessed with a rare gift."
Have some humility.

314
00:26:16.701 --> 00:26:19.537
- You're missing the point.
- It's love. Ever been in love, Chet?

315
00:26:19.662 --> 00:26:23.040
- I've been married. Twice.
- Yeah, I played those women.

316
00:26:23.165 --> 00:26:25.459
I didn't feel real love.

317
00:26:30.172 --> 00:26:32.466
You wanna feel real love?

318
00:26:34.343 --> 00:26:35.678
You ought to.

319
00:26:36.554 --> 00:26:37.763
One time.

320
00:26:38.848 --> 00:26:41.058
No, I don't want to get high
with you, Chet.

321
00:26:41.225 --> 00:26:43.144
I was just kidding.

322
00:26:45.021 --> 00:26:46.606
How did you get into it anyway?

323
00:26:48.899 --> 00:26:51.902
When I was released from the army,
a little while later,

324
00:26:52.069 --> 00:26:56.866
I came home one day
and there was a note on my door

325
00:26:57.033 --> 00:27:01.746
saying auditions with Charlie Parker
at the Tiffany Club, 3pm.

326
00:27:01.871 --> 00:27:05.750
Right, so I grabbed my horn
and I run over there.

327
00:27:05.875 --> 00:27:09.378
I could see 30 or 40 trumpet players,
all sitting there.

328
00:27:09.503 --> 00:27:12.256
Every trumpet player in LA was there.

329
00:27:13.507 --> 00:27:18.054
And there he was, big as a house.

330
00:27:18.179 --> 00:27:20.139
When he was somebody, right?

331
00:27:20.264 --> 00:27:23.225
And then after a while, he says,...

332
00:27:24.602 --> 00:27:27.521
"Is Chet Baker here?"

333
00:27:29.273 --> 00:27:32.902
Somebody must've told him about me.
And I said,

334
00:27:33.069 --> 00:27:36.697
"Yeah. Yeah, Bird. I'm here."

335
00:27:37.573 --> 00:27:40.368
And so I came up
and we played two tunes.

336
00:27:40.493 --> 00:27:45.164
We played <i>Cheryl,</i>
and <i>The Song Is You.</i>

337
00:27:47.333 --> 00:27:48.709
He took the microphone, he said,

338
00:27:48.834 --> 00:27:52.129
"Thanks for coming, everybody.
This audition is over."

339
00:27:54.674 --> 00:27:58.177
- He gave you the job just like that?
- Just like that.

340
00:27:58.302 --> 00:28:00.638
He said I was "Bixellated."

341
00:28:00.763 --> 00:28:03.683
He was a big fat junkie by then, right?

342
00:28:06.185 --> 00:28:08.312
Don't talk shit about Bird.

343
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:13.901
It was an honor to score for him.

344
00:28:16.612 --> 00:28:19.949
- Some role model.
- Yeah, he was.

345
00:28:20.116 --> 00:28:21.701
He was.

346
00:28:24.662 --> 00:28:27.957
He never hurt anybody but himself.

347
00:28:29.625 --> 00:28:31.460
Just like me.

348
00:28:34.463 --> 00:28:39.385
If anyone's gonna hurt you,
it's gonna be me.

349
00:28:41.011 --> 00:28:43.347
No. No, no...

350
00:28:55.109 --> 00:28:58.446
I don't date zombies, Chet.

351
00:28:59.196 --> 00:29:02.408
You want me to stick around, you have
to promise me you'll stay clean.

352
00:29:02.533 --> 00:29:06.495
- On the methadone.
- I love methadone.

353
00:29:06.620 --> 00:29:08.539
- Methadone is amazing.
- I'm serious.

354
00:29:08.664 --> 00:29:10.708
I am, too. I mean methadone...

355
00:29:10.833 --> 00:29:13.335
No, I see you scratching
your face like that again,

356
00:29:13.502 --> 00:29:15.588
then I'll know you're not clean.

357
00:29:17.006 --> 00:29:20.509
I'm clean. Listen to me.

358
00:29:20.634 --> 00:29:23.137
I had my teeth done, just for you.

359
00:29:28.768 --> 00:29:30.728
I miss your missing tooth.

360
00:29:30.853 --> 00:29:32.646
- Yeah?
- Hmm.

361
00:29:34.857 --> 00:29:37.359
How did you lose it anyway?

362
00:29:37.985 --> 00:29:41.238
Oh, come on,
you read the script, right?

363
00:29:41.363 --> 00:29:43.532
I was 12 years old.

364
00:29:43.657 --> 00:29:49.079
I threw the rock off the side,
and it ricocheted and broke my tooth.

365
00:29:49.246 --> 00:29:51.207
You're your own worst enemy.

366
00:29:51.332 --> 00:29:54.794
Hm-hmm. Well, you need
to better prepare for your roles, ma'am.

367
00:29:56.879 --> 00:29:59.757
No, I couldn't play
for more than a year.

368
00:29:59.882 --> 00:30:04.970
I had to hole up inside
that stupid barn and practice every day.

369
00:30:05.679 --> 00:30:07.973
Yeah, but you managed, right?

370
00:30:08.098 --> 00:30:10.768
Yeah, but that was one tooth.

371
00:30:11.811 --> 00:30:13.562
I mean, what are you saying?

372
00:30:13.687 --> 00:30:16.440
You think I should go back down there?

373
00:30:17.483 --> 00:30:21.737
Well, you need to recover, Chet.
Not just your jaw.

374
00:30:25.825 --> 00:30:28.202
But I love this apartment.

375
00:30:29.703 --> 00:30:32.331
You're losing this
at the end of the month.

376
00:30:32.456 --> 00:30:34.291
Oh. That's true.

377
00:30:39.380 --> 00:30:41.507
Would you come with me?

378
00:30:43.717 --> 00:30:44.969
Hm?

379
00:30:45.094 --> 00:30:47.721
I'm not dropping my life for you.

380
00:31:30.139 --> 00:31:31.348
What...

381
00:31:31.473 --> 00:31:34.476
What a surprise, Chettie!

382
00:31:34.602 --> 00:31:39.523
- Hi, Momma.
- Give me a hug! Aw....

383
00:31:39.648 --> 00:31:43.110
- Give me back my hat.
- Oh, you need a haircut, boy!

384
00:31:44.028 --> 00:31:46.530
And that jacket...
You're going to freeze to death.

385
00:31:46.655 --> 00:31:48.198
How are your teeth? Are they healing?

386
00:31:48.324 --> 00:31:49.533
Let me see.

387
00:31:52.369 --> 00:31:53.662
This is Jane.

388
00:31:54.622 --> 00:31:57.833
Ah. You look like Chettie's ex-wife.

389
00:31:59.126 --> 00:32:01.962
- Mom, I told you...
- Well, I played Elaine in the movie.

390
00:32:02.087 --> 00:32:04.465
- Yeah.
- Nice to meet you, Mrs Baker.

391
00:32:04.590 --> 00:32:06.342
I never did like her.

392
00:32:08.802 --> 00:32:11.513
We were thinking about visiting
a little bit, if that's OK.

393
00:32:11.639 --> 00:32:13.432
Yeah, that would be wonderful.

394
00:32:13.557 --> 00:32:16.477
You can stay as long as you want.
Stay until after Christmas.

395
00:32:18.395 --> 00:32:19.647
Hiya, Dad.

396
00:32:21.023 --> 00:32:22.691
Hey, Junior.

397
00:32:22.816 --> 00:32:27.738
- He's going to stay with us.
- Yeah. I can hear, Vera.

398
00:32:29.490 --> 00:32:32.326
You trying to dry out again?

399
00:32:32.451 --> 00:32:35.371
That's a lovely farmhouse that you have,
Mr Baker.

400
00:32:35.496 --> 00:32:36.872
Thank you.

401
00:32:37.623 --> 00:32:39.667
You know, you look like
a nice colored girl.

402
00:32:39.792 --> 00:32:41.377
If I was you, I'd get in that car and...

403
00:32:41.502 --> 00:32:43.045
I'll get my stuff.

404
00:32:43.170 --> 00:32:46.048
Uh, you can have your old room, alright?

405
00:32:46.215 --> 00:32:49.843
Hey, Chesney!
Filling station up the road's hiring!

406
00:32:59.019 --> 00:33:03.649
Must've been lonely out here.
No brothers or sisters.

407
00:33:03.774 --> 00:33:08.487
I had my trumpet. And the radio.

408
00:33:11.031 --> 00:33:12.783
That's all you need now.

409
00:33:12.908 --> 00:33:16.787
- And some time.
- And you.

410
00:33:18.205 --> 00:33:19.873
Right?

411
00:33:34.013 --> 00:33:35.973
Don't stop, honey.
It sounds good.

412
00:33:38.976 --> 00:33:40.978
I got no chops, Mom.

413
00:33:42.021 --> 00:33:45.524
It's real progress. It is!

414
00:33:50.446 --> 00:33:53.741
Yeah. Time to hang it up, son.

415
00:33:53.866 --> 00:33:55.784
<i>Mr Baker, my name is Officer Reid.</i>

416
00:33:55.909 --> 00:33:57.745
<i>I'm taking over as your parole officer.</i>

417
00:33:57.870 --> 00:34:00.164
<i>You should've received
a letter to that effect.</i>

418
00:34:01.540 --> 00:34:04.793
<i>I understand you've agreed to try this
new treatment called methadone.</i>

419
00:34:04.918 --> 00:34:06.920
<i>Oh, yeah, Officer. I just love it.</i>

420
00:34:07.046 --> 00:34:09.757
Just as addictive as heroin,
without the high.

421
00:34:09.882 --> 00:34:12.593
<i>Hey, it's legal,
and it's keeping you clean.</i>

422
00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:14.178
<i>There is that.</i>

423
00:34:14.303 --> 00:34:17.473
<i>You've got to find a steady job
and be patient, Mr Baker.</i>

424
00:34:17.598 --> 00:34:19.600
<i>I'll see you when you get back to LA.</i>

425
00:34:19.725 --> 00:34:21.268
That's me. Mr Patient.

426
00:34:41.538 --> 00:34:43.373
Hey, Miles.

427
00:34:43.499 --> 00:34:45.834
Hey, Dizzy.

428
00:34:46.168 --> 00:34:50.464
There's a little white cat
on the West Coast gonna eat you up.

429
00:35:00.849 --> 00:35:02.267
Forget about Birdland.

430
00:35:20.327 --> 00:35:23.664
I think I need to get better glue
for these bastards.

431
00:35:31.004 --> 00:35:32.089
Checkmate!

432
00:35:32.214 --> 00:35:35.300
I need to see this... nonsense.

433
00:35:35.425 --> 00:35:37.636
- Checkmate?
- Victory is mine.

434
00:35:37.761 --> 00:35:41.014
- I let you win.
- You're such a sore loser.

435
00:35:42.266 --> 00:35:43.725
You better settle my prize.

436
00:35:43.851 --> 00:35:45.686
Yeah, you'll get your prize.

437
00:36:04.121 --> 00:36:06.874
Horn's not the only thing
that tongue's good for.

438
00:36:08.125 --> 00:36:09.918
Have you been
with other trumpet players?

439
00:36:10.043 --> 00:36:13.755
Trombone, alto sax... Yeah.

440
00:36:13.881 --> 00:36:16.633
Just not trumpet. Never trumpet.

441
00:36:17.134 --> 00:36:18.260
Shh!

442
00:36:18.385 --> 00:36:20.679
My mother! Shh!

443
00:36:25.392 --> 00:36:29.438
Chet, easy!

444
00:36:29.605 --> 00:36:33.275
Easy, Chet.
Just slow down, slow down, OK?

445
00:36:37.654 --> 00:36:39.781
Pretend you're playing me.

446
00:36:41.325 --> 00:36:44.953
<i>Just relax, OK? Just breathe.</i>

447
00:36:45.078 --> 00:36:46.788
Just breathe.

448
00:36:46.914 --> 00:36:47.748
Alright.

449
00:36:55.797 --> 00:36:58.258
That's better. That's better.

450
00:37:25.077 --> 00:37:27.537
Hope you can hold that note all night.

451
00:37:54.189 --> 00:37:58.235
- Chettie? Why don't you stay longer?
- I wish we could, Ma.

452
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:00.445
No, he got to run back to the big city.

453
00:38:00.570 --> 00:38:02.823
He's gonna to stay clean this time.

454
00:38:03.782 --> 00:38:05.951
Do it.

455
00:38:08.328 --> 00:38:09.705
Hey, Dad.

456
00:38:13.208 --> 00:38:14.793
I got this for you.

457
00:38:15.961 --> 00:38:18.046
I know it's your favorite.

458
00:38:18.171 --> 00:38:20.882
You remember you used to play it for me
on the banjo?

459
00:38:21.008 --> 00:38:24.094
It's got that tune we loved,
<i>Born to Be Blue.</i>

460
00:38:24.219 --> 00:38:26.722
- Oh, my goodness!
- Yeah, right?

461
00:38:26.847 --> 00:38:28.223
That's a pretty tune.

462
00:38:29.975 --> 00:38:32.477
- Thank you.
- Alright.

463
00:38:32.602 --> 00:38:35.439
I based my recording off the way
you used to play it.

464
00:38:35.564 --> 00:38:36.606
Hm.

465
00:38:38.900 --> 00:38:42.362
But... why'd you have to sing it
like a girl?

466
00:38:46.366 --> 00:38:50.120
Well, I sold a lot of that record.

467
00:38:52.914 --> 00:38:55.208
How many records did you sell?

468
00:38:56.043 --> 00:38:59.171
Oh, that's right. You quit, right?

469
00:39:00.297 --> 00:39:02.007
I didn't quit.

470
00:39:03.175 --> 00:39:04.301
Yeah.

471
00:39:06.011 --> 00:39:09.056
But I never embarrassed my family.

472
00:39:10.223 --> 00:39:14.102
I never dragged the Baker name
through the mud.

473
00:39:21.818 --> 00:39:23.779
Goodbye, Dad.

474
00:39:45.258 --> 00:39:47.928
You alright, Chet?

475
00:39:48.053 --> 00:39:50.597
Would it be OK, if, uh,

476
00:39:51.473 --> 00:39:53.266
you know, I moved in with you?

477
00:40:07.155 --> 00:40:09.950
Chet, I'm trying to sleep!

478
00:40:31.430 --> 00:40:32.931
Are you pizza 14, Henry?

479
00:40:33.098 --> 00:40:34.808
That's us, thank you.

480
00:42:25.126 --> 00:42:27.420
- Nice.
- OK.

481
00:42:28.421 --> 00:42:32.926
Hey, thanks a lot.
You guys are here every Sunday?

482
00:42:33.051 --> 00:42:35.720
Yeah. You might want to practice more
on your own, first.

483
00:42:50.277 --> 00:42:52.153
You know that's Chet Baker, right?

484
00:42:52.279 --> 00:42:54.114
That's Chet Baker?

485
00:42:54.739 --> 00:42:56.700
Holy fuck, that's Chet Baker.

486
00:42:56.825 --> 00:42:58.785
Nice fucking going.

487
00:43:09.129 --> 00:43:11.548
Whenever you're ready, Miss Azuka.

488
00:43:11.673 --> 00:43:14.884
Heaven gave us friendship
that we may open our hearts

489
00:43:15.051 --> 00:43:18.388
<i>and escape the secrets
that weigh upon us.</i>

490
00:43:22.434 --> 00:43:26.688
I can try it a different way.
I've got a lot of ideas.

491
00:43:26.813 --> 00:43:30.734
No, I think, uh...
I don't think it's gonna work out.

492
00:44:20.617 --> 00:44:21.826
Yes?

493
00:44:21.951 --> 00:44:26.122
- Hey, yeah, is... Is Dick around?
- I'll see.

494
00:44:39.803 --> 00:44:42.639
You'll never guess who's at the door.

495
00:44:50.313 --> 00:44:51.856
- Chet?
- Hey, Dick.

496
00:44:51.981 --> 00:44:55.068
Am I getting you at a bad time?
You meditating or something?

497
00:44:56.277 --> 00:44:59.406
- You should try some.
- No, it's just corny man.

498
00:44:59.531 --> 00:45:02.492
- I heard you were clean.
- I am. I'm clean.

499
00:45:02.617 --> 00:45:03.910
Ever since the accident.

500
00:45:04.077 --> 00:45:06.538
Accident? How much do you need?

501
00:45:08.123 --> 00:45:09.416
Dick...

502
00:45:10.750 --> 00:45:13.002
I just need a session, man.

503
00:45:14.671 --> 00:45:17.257
I heard you were playing
some pizza parlor.

504
00:45:17.382 --> 00:45:19.092
Yeah, yeah...

505
00:45:19.217 --> 00:45:21.845
I didn't think that
that would be... possible.

506
00:45:21.970 --> 00:45:25.849
You know, it hurts a little bit.
But, uh, you know...

507
00:45:27.642 --> 00:45:30.729
I'm blowing pretty...
pretty well, Dick. Pretty well.

508
00:45:30.854 --> 00:45:33.982
Good enough for a solo record,
you know, like old times.

509
00:45:34.107 --> 00:45:35.316
Not gonna happen, Chet.

510
00:45:35.442 --> 00:45:37.819
I got a probation officer
breathing down my neck.

511
00:45:37.944 --> 00:45:41.364
If I fall this time, I'm going to do
some real time, you know.

512
00:45:41.489 --> 00:45:45.535
- Jane's pregnant. I mean I'm...
- You and Jane are together?

513
00:45:45.660 --> 00:45:47.620
Oh, yeah. Yeah.

514
00:45:52.792 --> 00:45:54.669
No. I can't help you this time, uh...

515
00:45:54.794 --> 00:45:57.297
Dick, you haven't even heard me play.

516
00:45:57.422 --> 00:46:00.842
Good to see you, Chet. Take care.

517
00:46:13.646 --> 00:46:15.148
Chet!

518
00:46:16.775 --> 00:46:17.776
Give me the plant.

519
00:46:17.901 --> 00:46:19.235
Give me the plant.

520
00:46:25.867 --> 00:46:27.952
Jane really pregnant?

521
00:46:31.414 --> 00:46:32.874
That's a start.

522
00:46:34.834 --> 00:46:37.378
I'm sorry, Chet,
it's not like the old days.

523
00:46:38.046 --> 00:46:39.672
Stay clean.

524
00:47:56.374 --> 00:47:59.419
- Did you like that?
- Yeah, man, it was really good.

525
00:47:59.544 --> 00:48:00.753
Would you sign this for me?

526
00:48:00.879 --> 00:48:01.963
Oh, yeah, sure.

527
00:48:02.088 --> 00:48:04.007
- I'll get you a beer, OK?
- Yeah. Yeah, great.

528
00:48:04.132 --> 00:48:05.425
- What's your name?
- Sarah.

529
00:48:05.550 --> 00:48:07.176
- Sarah?
- Sarah with an "h."

530
00:48:07.343 --> 00:48:10.889
Yeah, OK. And what's this here?

531
00:48:11.055 --> 00:48:15.310
That's just, um... a little gift
to help you relax up there.

532
00:48:17.645 --> 00:48:20.773
- And you look like such a good girl.
- I am a good girl.

533
00:48:23.276 --> 00:48:27.071
- Are you with her?
- Uh...

534
00:48:29.949 --> 00:48:33.703
- Yeah, you know...
- Yeah.

535
00:48:33.828 --> 00:48:36.831
You should call me if you ever
want to explore other instruments.

536
00:48:40.084 --> 00:48:43.588
OK. Well, thank you, Sarah with an "h."

537
00:48:44.631 --> 00:48:46.633
- OK.
- Here's your record.

538
00:48:46.758 --> 00:48:48.509
- Thank you.
- And here's your pen.

539
00:48:48.676 --> 00:48:50.178
Thank you.

540
00:48:58.353 --> 00:48:59.854
Hey, thanks.

541
00:49:02.065 --> 00:49:04.108
What was that about?

542
00:49:04.317 --> 00:49:08.446
Oh, nothing. We were talking about Miles
and how he likes to piss everybody off.

543
00:49:08.571 --> 00:49:11.324
- Yes, so do you, Chet.
- Yeah.

544
00:49:11.449 --> 00:49:14.827
- What did she give you?
- Uh, some pamphlet.

545
00:49:16.329 --> 00:49:18.414
What did she give you, Chet?

546
00:49:20.917 --> 00:49:22.752
She gave me dope, OK?

547
00:49:22.877 --> 00:49:25.630
I didn't ask for it.
She just gave it to me.

548
00:49:25.755 --> 00:49:29.842
Baker, Baker, Baker... I'm Officer Reid.

549
00:49:29.968 --> 00:49:33.096
We spoke on the phone
about your parole, yeah?

550
00:49:34.222 --> 00:49:36.099
This isn't going to cut it.

551
00:49:36.224 --> 00:49:39.894
What, you don't like the music?
You got any requests?

552
00:49:42.146 --> 00:49:45.441
Yeah. I got a request.
How about you get a real job?

553
00:49:45.566 --> 00:49:49.612
A real job? Is that Cole Porter?
I don't know <i>A Real Job.</i>

554
00:49:49.737 --> 00:49:51.948
You know something?
When I was a boy, my dad,

555
00:49:52.073 --> 00:49:54.200
he used to say to me that if a man

556
00:49:54.409 --> 00:49:56.828
sits in a barber chair long enough,

557
00:49:56.953 --> 00:49:58.830
eventually he's going to get a haircut.

558
00:49:59.455 --> 00:50:00.957
Wow, that's...

559
00:50:01.082 --> 00:50:04.460
That's very meaningful. It's...

560
00:50:04.585 --> 00:50:08.089
- It's wisdom like that that really...
- Keeps you outta prison.

561
00:50:09.716 --> 00:50:12.719
You do want to stay out of prison,
don't you?

562
00:50:18.433 --> 00:50:19.559
Yes.

563
00:50:19.684 --> 00:50:23.021
Well, then, why don't you
do us both a favor

564
00:50:23.146 --> 00:50:26.399
and get a real job
by the end of the week?

565
00:50:38.244 --> 00:50:41.789
- What am I gonna do?
- You'll think of something.

566
00:50:42.582 --> 00:50:44.959
You think maybe we could
get some, like, proper gigs?

567
00:50:46.294 --> 00:50:47.920
You're not ready.

568
00:50:49.047 --> 00:50:51.799
What are you going to do with that?

569
00:50:51.924 --> 00:50:54.010
Just go throw it away.
I didn't ask for it.

570
00:50:54.135 --> 00:50:55.803
The dumb chick just gave it to me.

571
00:50:55.928 --> 00:50:57.805
No. I trust you.

572
00:51:21.287 --> 00:51:24.248
You went and saw Dick, right?
What did he say?

573
00:51:24.373 --> 00:51:26.167
I told you, he said no.

574
00:51:26.292 --> 00:51:28.836
I mean, you know,
I'm not going to beg him.

575
00:51:30.922 --> 00:51:33.674
At this point, I'd do anything.

576
00:51:45.144 --> 00:51:46.979
Thanks for changing your mind, Dick.

577
00:51:48.773 --> 00:51:50.274
I'm glad you called.

578
00:51:50.399 --> 00:51:52.985
You know, it's almost worth it
to see Chet in a sombrero.

579
00:51:56.656 --> 00:51:58.241
How is he doing?

580
00:51:58.407 --> 00:52:00.284
Oh, he's... struggling.

581
00:52:00.493 --> 00:52:02.870
You said he'd never play again.

582
00:52:02.995 --> 00:52:04.330
Well, I don't know what's worse;

583
00:52:04.497 --> 00:52:07.333
Chet not playing
or Chet playing mediocre.

584
00:52:08.084 --> 00:52:10.169
Well, it's going to take time, Dick.
You know that.

585
00:52:11.796 --> 00:52:13.089
How are you doing?

586
00:52:13.214 --> 00:52:15.258
I'm still here.

587
00:52:16.676 --> 00:52:19.220
Give him a contract over the summer.

588
00:52:19.345 --> 00:52:21.514
What are you? His new manager?

589
00:52:21.639 --> 00:52:23.307
You jealous?

590
00:52:24.225 --> 00:52:27.145
No. Time here costs money.

591
00:52:27.270 --> 00:52:29.063
So, put him in the back.
Mix him out.

592
00:52:29.188 --> 00:52:31.440
Oh, right, and of course,
keep paying him.

593
00:52:31.607 --> 00:52:33.526
Listen, we need to eat.

594
00:52:35.069 --> 00:52:37.780
So, get us to do stuff.
We can paint walls, fix things,

595
00:52:37.905 --> 00:52:41.117
- whatever you need.
- Chet Baker, handyman.

596
00:52:46.789 --> 00:52:50.960
- He pumped gas in Oklahoma.
- You serious?

597
00:52:53.045 --> 00:52:56.424
You know, this is the first time
I've seen him sweat.

598
00:52:56.591 --> 00:52:59.302
Everything came so easily for him,
musically.

599
00:52:59.427 --> 00:53:01.220
I think that was one of the problems.

600
00:53:01.345 --> 00:53:03.848
You think he'll ever play
high level again?

601
00:53:10.897 --> 00:53:12.064
<i>Kill it.</i>

602
00:53:12.190 --> 00:53:13.816
- Yeah.
- Somebody's out of tune.

603
00:53:13.941 --> 00:53:15.693
It's not me. Somebody's outta tune.

604
00:53:26.829 --> 00:53:28.247
Next.

605
00:53:39.508 --> 00:53:42.887
I mean, did you do the line about
the vegetables, like we talked about?

606
00:53:43.012 --> 00:53:46.474
I mean, that was funny.
And they didn't like that?

607
00:53:46.641 --> 00:53:49.060
This isn't what I came here for.

608
00:53:50.770 --> 00:53:53.231
Hey, come on, people don't know
anything about talent.

609
00:53:53.356 --> 00:53:55.358
Nothing at all.

610
00:53:55.483 --> 00:53:57.485
I mean, think about it,
most musicians today...

611
00:53:57.652 --> 00:54:01.280
I mean, their playing is 100 years ahead
of where the listeners' ears are.

612
00:54:01.447 --> 00:54:04.742
I'm not talking about talent,
I just want to get a job.

613
00:54:04.867 --> 00:54:06.285
You will, I promise.

614
00:54:07.411 --> 00:54:09.372
It was easier in New York.

615
00:54:17.546 --> 00:54:19.548
Can we just be blue tonight?

616
00:54:20.841 --> 00:54:22.677
But I don't want to be blue.

617
00:54:30.768 --> 00:54:35.356
<i>♪ We'll have a blue room</i>

618
00:54:36.315 --> 00:54:38.734
<i>♪ For-two room</i>

00:54:38.859 --> 00:54:40.569

622

623
00:54:58.921 --> 00:55:00.464
<i>♪ A ballroom...</i>

624
00:55:13.811 --> 00:55:15.730
Does Baker show up every day?

625
00:55:16.897 --> 00:55:18.399
You... You read my report.

626
00:55:18.566 --> 00:55:22.069
I mean, he's been playing sessions
and he's been helping out around here.

627
00:55:22.194 --> 00:55:24.196
We painted those walls over there.

628
00:55:25.448 --> 00:55:29.035
OK. Just he's got this probation review
coming up tomorrow

629
00:55:29.160 --> 00:55:31.245
and he's still short of hours, so...

630
00:55:41.839 --> 00:55:43.799
<i>You guys take a break.</i>

631
00:55:43.924 --> 00:55:45.926
Chet, can you come up here for a second?

632
00:55:46.510 --> 00:55:48.471
Who's in trouble now?

633
00:55:51.474 --> 00:55:53.351
- Hey, Mr Baker.
- Hey, Officer Reid.

634
00:55:53.476 --> 00:55:55.561
I was just saying
you've got this review tomorrow,

635
00:55:55.728 --> 00:55:57.188
and you're still shy of a few hours.

636
00:55:57.313 --> 00:55:59.357
So I'm not sure how
we're going to work that out.

637
00:55:59.482 --> 00:56:01.984
He can do some work later.
There's some dry-walling to do.

638
00:56:02.109 --> 00:56:04.070
- I mean, if that helps.
- Yeah, that helps.

639
00:56:04.195 --> 00:56:06.030
Can I stick around,
make sure it happens?

640
00:56:06.155 --> 00:56:08.074
- Sure.
- I can't dry-wall tonight.

641
00:56:08.199 --> 00:56:11.535
- Your parents are flying in.
- Doesn't matter who's flying in.

642
00:56:11.660 --> 00:56:13.329
I don't wanna break my promise to Jane.

643
00:56:13.454 --> 00:56:16.624
I won't stand up in front of Judge Hays
tomorrow and say you're shy of hours.

644
00:56:16.791 --> 00:56:17.833
I have to say something.

645
00:56:17.958 --> 00:56:20.836
Do you realize it's people like you
that killed Billie Holiday?

646
00:56:20.961 --> 00:56:22.254
- What?
- Do you realize that?

647
00:56:22.380 --> 00:56:24.131
No, it's true, it's true.

648
00:56:24.256 --> 00:56:26.342
What does that have to do with anything?

649
00:56:26.467 --> 00:56:27.718
Just do the hours.

650
00:56:27.843 --> 00:56:32.306
- Cops harassing her day and night.
- Holiday died of a heroin overdose.

651
00:56:32.431 --> 00:56:34.058
Dick, can I go back to work, please?

652
00:56:34.183 --> 00:56:37.311
- She was a junkie and...
- It's not worth it.

653
00:56:39.313 --> 00:56:41.774
That went pretty well, I thought.

654
00:56:43.359 --> 00:56:46.028
OK, round two. Here we go.

655
00:56:47.363 --> 00:56:49.281
Alright. Are we set?

656
00:56:49.407 --> 00:56:50.408
Hit it.

657
00:56:52.034 --> 00:56:55.955
You know, I've been working
with junkie musicians for over 20 years.

658
00:56:56.080 --> 00:56:58.040
I have never seen anyone
work this hard before.

659
00:56:58.165 --> 00:57:01.085
- Yeah.
- Or stayed clean this long, right?

660
00:57:01.210 --> 00:57:04.380
- Yeah, that's a miracle.
- Must be love.

661
00:57:06.382 --> 00:57:08.634
That's why you give him the hours.

662
00:57:11.387 --> 00:57:12.847
Write it out.

663
00:57:13.597 --> 00:57:15.641
Give him a tick.

664
00:57:16.934 --> 00:57:20.646
Give him a tick?
You gotta promise me one thing first.

665
00:57:22.565 --> 00:57:25.192
Get him some half-decent clothes
to meet your parents in.

666
00:57:26.444 --> 00:57:27.945
It's a deal.

667
00:57:30.948 --> 00:57:32.116
Nice!

668
00:57:54.889 --> 00:57:58.058
I bought our boat
about 12 years ago.

669
00:57:58.225 --> 00:58:00.436
- I love being out on the water.
- Yeah, me, too.

670
00:58:00.561 --> 00:58:04.231
I used to have a Pacific cat.
It was a 19-foot catamaran.

671
00:58:04.356 --> 00:58:06.025
- Wow.
- Yeah.

672
00:58:06.150 --> 00:58:08.652
And now you're squatting
in the back of my daughter's van?

673
00:58:08.777 --> 00:58:09.904
Yeah.

674
00:58:10.029 --> 00:58:11.238
That's true.

675
00:58:11.363 --> 00:58:14.241
Some of my colleagues found out
Junebug was living with Chet Baker

676
00:58:14.366 --> 00:58:17.453
and all they could talk about
was wasted talent.

677
00:58:17.578 --> 00:58:19.205
Oh, they must be critics, huh?

678
00:58:19.330 --> 00:58:23.167
Real talent, Chamberlain, Bird,
always flourishes.

679
00:58:23.292 --> 00:58:26.879
But then there's the type that promises
more than they can fulfill.

680
00:58:27.004 --> 00:58:31.050
I listened to your records.
I see you here today, Mr Baker,

681
00:58:31.175 --> 00:58:35.054
and I wonder if that's all there is.
A white man's promise.

682
00:58:36.805 --> 00:58:39.058
I'm going to be a good husband
to your daughter, sir.

683
00:58:39.183 --> 00:58:44.772
- Are you asking for her hand?
- Uh, yeah. I guess so, yeah.

684
00:58:44.939 --> 00:58:48.275
Elsie told me you've asked
for Junebug's hand twice already.

685
00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:54.615
- But you never bothered to call me.
- Well, we don't really have a phone.

686
00:58:55.783 --> 00:58:57.284
Uh, hey...

687
00:58:57.409 --> 00:59:00.162
So your father
has some colleagues at work

688
00:59:00.287 --> 00:59:03.791
that know everything there is
to know about Chet Baker, huh?

689
00:59:03.958 --> 00:59:05.334
I mean, here's the deal, alright?

690
00:59:05.459 --> 00:59:08.337
I don't mind if you wanna give me
a lecture about being responsible

691
00:59:08.462 --> 00:59:09.797
or anything like that.

692
00:59:09.964 --> 00:59:14.176
But if you start talking to me
about music or talent or Bird...

693
00:59:15.636 --> 00:59:19.348
you know,
I might have to say "Fuck you!"

694
00:59:25.437 --> 00:59:28.732
Let's cut the crap.
You were a drug addict, right?

695
00:59:28.941 --> 00:59:30.150
Yeah.

696
00:59:30.276 --> 00:59:33.028
Would you want your daughter
to marry a man like you?

697
00:59:33.153 --> 00:59:35.281
Dad!

698
00:59:36.156 --> 00:59:38.701
You know, why don't we head back?
Get some ice cream.

699
00:59:42.496 --> 00:59:44.206
I'm going to go for a swim.

700
00:59:45.207 --> 00:59:46.584
Where are you going?

701
01:00:12.067 --> 01:00:13.277
Chet!

702
01:00:16.530 --> 01:00:17.656
Chet!

703
01:00:20.534 --> 01:00:23.454
Chet! What are you doing?

704
01:00:27.499 --> 01:00:29.126
Huh?

705
01:01:39.738 --> 01:01:41.198
What'd I tell you?

706
01:01:42.783 --> 01:01:44.284
Surprise, surprise, man.

707
01:01:48.497 --> 01:01:52.418
Maybe poor technique will actually
give his sound, uh, character.

708
01:01:52.543 --> 01:01:55.337
Like the old Chet, but deeper.

709
01:01:58.632 --> 01:01:59.758
Nick!

710
01:02:01.427 --> 01:02:02.678
It's so good to see you.

711
01:02:02.803 --> 01:02:05.389
Good to see you.
Chet sounds so amazing.

712
01:02:31.582 --> 01:02:33.625
You should get him a gig.

713
01:02:33.792 --> 01:02:35.335
Hmm...

714
01:03:13.957 --> 01:03:16.251
This is, uh, Danny Friedman.

715
01:03:16.376 --> 01:03:17.544
- Hey, Chet.
- Hey, Dan.

716
01:03:17.669 --> 01:03:20.047
- Dizzy's promoter.
- Been a while. Yeah, I know who he is.

717
01:03:20.214 --> 01:03:21.632
That was something else, man.

718
01:03:21.757 --> 01:03:23.050
He's doing this West Coast tour.

719
01:03:23.217 --> 01:03:25.719
He might be able to help you get a gig.

720
01:03:25.844 --> 01:03:27.429
- That'd be OK.
- Wow.

721
01:03:27.554 --> 01:03:30.390
You know, this is the first place I saw
you recording in.

722
01:03:30.516 --> 01:03:32.684
- Right...
- That's it, you and Mulligan.

723
01:03:32.810 --> 01:03:34.561
- Trading solos.
- Mm-hm.

724
01:03:34.686 --> 01:03:38.315
Wow. This was the birth
of West Coast swing, baby.

725
01:03:38.440 --> 01:03:40.234
That's what they say.

726
01:03:40.359 --> 01:03:44.530
I got an idea, bear with me.
Why don't we do a gig here?

727
01:03:44.655 --> 01:03:46.323
Yeah, yeah, that could be nice.

728
01:03:46.490 --> 01:03:48.033
A couple more execs and promoters.

729
01:03:48.200 --> 01:03:50.202
He dims the lights, it's fun.
Play some tunes.

730
01:03:50.327 --> 01:03:52.663
Dick, what'd I tell you?
I'm only here until Monday.

731
01:03:52.788 --> 01:03:54.623
- OK, well.
- We'd do Birdland if you want.

732
01:03:54.748 --> 01:03:56.291
In a couple of weeks?

733
01:03:56.416 --> 01:03:58.627
- I wish.
- You're out Monday.

734
01:03:58.752 --> 01:04:01.421
- Is Sunday good for you?
- Yeah. After four.

735
01:04:01.547 --> 01:04:04.800
- After four.
- Yeah. So...?

736
01:04:05.384 --> 01:04:06.802
What are you thinking? Be fun.

737
01:04:08.762 --> 01:04:10.472
- Eight o'clock?
- That'd be good.

738
01:04:10.597 --> 01:04:11.765
That'd be good. Alright.

739
01:04:11.890 --> 01:04:13.559
Chet, it's good to see you, man.

740
01:04:13.684 --> 01:04:14.601
We'll have a good time.

741
01:04:14.726 --> 01:04:16.436
- See you Sunday.
- Alright, see you, D.

742
01:04:16.562 --> 01:04:17.938
- We'll have fun.
- It'll be nice.

743
01:04:18.063 --> 01:04:20.941
- I'll see you guys Sunday.
- Hey, say hi to Dizzy.

744
01:04:21.066 --> 01:04:22.568
I will, brother.

745
01:04:25.362 --> 01:04:27.155
Did you just do that?

746
01:04:27.322 --> 01:04:29.157
You did that.

747
01:04:29.324 --> 01:04:31.285
Now I see why I pay you
the big bucks, Dick.

748
01:04:31.410 --> 01:04:33.495
You make some big bucks,
then you pay me.

749
01:04:33.620 --> 01:04:35.622
You're not half as bad as everyone says.

750
01:04:35.747 --> 01:04:37.624
Hey, Jane!

751
01:04:38.375 --> 01:04:40.043
- Jane!
- She left.

752
01:04:42.421 --> 01:04:43.922
- She left?
- Yeah.

753
01:04:44.047 --> 01:04:46.091
- Where did she go?
- Uh, with that...

754
01:04:46.258 --> 01:04:48.385
- She left with that director Nick?
- Yeah.

755
01:04:49.803 --> 01:04:53.473
How's she supposed to get an acting
gig if she never leaves the studio?

756
01:04:55.601 --> 01:04:56.602
Come on, Chet.

757
01:04:56.727 --> 01:04:59.646
Try to be happy for more than
ten seconds at a time, alright?

758
01:05:00.689 --> 01:05:03.901
Forget about that movie.
You've got a big show to think about.

759
01:05:09.865 --> 01:05:11.992
<i>He's just jealous, Chettie.</i>

760
01:05:12.117 --> 01:05:14.286
- What a jerk!
- Don't let him get to your head.

761
01:05:14.411 --> 01:05:16.788
Why the fuck
would you bring up the polls?

762
01:05:16.914 --> 01:05:20.334
- Honey, calm down...
- Don't touch me! Get off me!

763
01:05:22.419 --> 01:05:23.670
Good night.

764
01:05:23.795 --> 01:05:26.590
Don't be there all night. See you later.

765
01:05:42.356 --> 01:05:43.607
He's married with kids!

766
01:05:43.732 --> 01:05:47.152
So that mean he doesn't like to have
sex, huh? Did he hit on you?

767
01:05:47.361 --> 01:05:50.656
Yeah. But that doesn't mean
I'm gonna go for it! He knows that!

768
01:05:50.781 --> 01:05:54.034
Come on, all guys do the same thing.
They play games, right?

769
01:05:54.159 --> 01:05:57.621
Just remember I haven't had a job
since you screwed up the last one.

770
01:05:57.788 --> 01:06:03.460
Alright. But... So you two went off
and you rehearsed together?

771
01:06:03.585 --> 01:06:04.628
Yeah.

772
01:06:04.753 --> 01:06:05.796
That's exactly what I did.

773
01:06:05.921 --> 01:06:08.966
But I was helping you
with that audition.

774
01:06:10.592 --> 01:06:12.844
Hey, Chet, just calm down.

775
01:06:12.970 --> 01:06:14.721
He's the director,
he can get me the job.

776
01:06:14.846 --> 01:06:18.225
Oh, so he's the big shot?
So he's important?

777
01:06:20.018 --> 01:06:22.854
- Come on, I can't do this all the time.
- No, no, you...

778
01:06:23.855 --> 01:06:26.400
Are you leaving me? Huh?
Is that what you're doing?

779
01:06:29.653 --> 01:06:31.655
Is that what's happening?

780
01:06:31.780 --> 01:06:33.865
- Don't be silly, Chet.
- I know that...

781
01:06:36.118 --> 01:06:37.828
I'm pregnant.

782
01:06:44.626 --> 01:06:47.004
So why don't you ask me again?

783
01:06:54.219 --> 01:06:55.929
Two seconds...

784
01:06:58.640 --> 01:07:02.269
Here. Hold this, OK? And hold this.

785
01:07:04.896 --> 01:07:07.733
Alright. Have it back.

786
01:07:14.823 --> 01:07:16.074
Will you marry me?

787
01:07:17.784 --> 01:07:19.786
What is that?

788
01:07:20.579 --> 01:07:22.998
This is extremely valuable, alright?

789
01:07:23.123 --> 01:07:25.417
This is a valve ring.

790
01:07:27.836 --> 01:07:29.546
Yeah, I will.

791
01:07:32.049 --> 01:07:35.886
It's the valve ring to the first trumpet
my dad gave me.

792
01:07:40.265 --> 01:07:42.601
You can put it on a chain, you know?

793
01:07:44.269 --> 01:07:45.604
That way...

794
01:07:47.647 --> 01:07:49.107
you won't lose it.

795
01:07:50.233 --> 01:07:51.735
You're not gonna lose it, are you?

796
01:07:51.860 --> 01:07:53.570
No, I won't.

797
01:07:55.030 --> 01:07:56.448
Beautiful.

798
01:08:12.005 --> 01:08:14.591
- I love you.
- I love you, too.

799
01:08:57.259 --> 01:08:58.510
Settle, people.

800
01:08:58.635 --> 01:09:03.807
We are recording tonight's performance,
so... be quiet.

801
01:09:03.932 --> 01:09:06.935
And if you could hold your applause
until after every song,

802
01:09:07.060 --> 01:09:08.353
it'd be much appreciated.

803
01:09:08.520 --> 01:09:10.689
Not too quiet.

804
01:09:21.366 --> 01:09:23.076
Chet?

805
01:09:23.243 --> 01:09:25.745
- Ready?
- Yeah, I'm ready.

806
01:09:31.334 --> 01:09:33.253
Hold on. I'm not ready.

807
01:09:33.378 --> 01:09:35.797
I wasn't ready.

808
01:09:35.922 --> 01:09:37.215
Can we try it again?

809
01:09:37.340 --> 01:09:39.593
This is a waste of time, man.

810
01:09:44.431 --> 01:09:48.727
OK, quiet again, everyone.
Please. This'll be take two.

Bob, Leonard. Hey, Bill.

831
01:13:39.040 --> 01:13:43.044
Well, Bob, thanks for staying.
I really appreciate that.

832
01:13:43.169 --> 01:13:44.671
Dizzy and Danny are over there.

833
01:13:44.838 --> 01:13:47.882
Oh, shit. So I see.
Excuse me for a second.

834
01:13:48.550 --> 01:13:50.927
- Hi, Mr Baker.
- Please, don't arrest me now.

835
01:13:51.052 --> 01:13:54.264
- Dizzy Gillespie's over there.
- Dizzy...? Get outta here! That is him.

836
01:13:54.389 --> 01:13:56.850
Jane told me the good news.
Just wanna say congratulations.

837
01:13:56.975 --> 01:13:58.184
- Thanks.
- When's the big day?

838
01:13:58.309 --> 01:14:00.728
- As soon as possible.
- OK, I see you wanna go.

839
01:14:00.895 --> 01:14:03.523
- OK, thanks for coming.
- Keep your nose clean, alright.

840
01:14:03.690 --> 01:14:07.110
Hey, man!
Excellent show, excellent show!

841
01:14:07.235 --> 01:14:09.487
- Beautiful, beautiful stuff.
- Thank you, thank you.

842
01:14:09.612 --> 01:14:12.031
You're not going clean, are you?

843
01:14:12.157 --> 01:14:14.492
I'm having a little party...

844
01:14:14.617 --> 01:14:17.537
I'm having a little party and...

845
01:14:17.662 --> 01:14:20.123
- OK. Yeah, yeah.
- Please. Can we do it?

846
01:14:20.707 --> 01:14:25.336
- Jane.
- Oh! Baby! You were so good.

847
01:14:30.008 --> 01:14:32.302
- Chettie...
- Oh, hey, Danny.

848
01:14:32.427 --> 01:14:35.221
- Look who's here, my friend.
- Oh, wow! Hey, Dizzy.

849
01:14:35.346 --> 01:14:38.641
- It's been a long time, Chettie.
- Yeah, it sure has. Wow...!

850
01:14:38.766 --> 01:14:40.226
Danny boy said I ought to come by.

851
01:14:40.351 --> 01:14:42.854
Well, thanks for coming.
What did you think?

852
01:14:42.979 --> 01:14:46.691
Well, you really pared it down, man.
A little bit under the centre.

853
01:14:46.858 --> 01:14:48.401
Yeah. Always been like that.

854
01:14:48.568 --> 01:14:52.447
It was almost flat.
Somehow it was still nice.

855
01:14:52.572 --> 01:14:54.449
- Thanks.
- But you know, hey.

856
01:14:54.574 --> 01:14:56.159
You really shouldn't sing.

857
01:14:56.284 --> 01:14:57.577
- You know that, right?
- Yeah.

858
01:14:58.703 --> 01:15:01.498
Danny was saying
he's thinking about Birdland.

859
01:15:05.001 --> 01:15:08.671
- Look, you've come a long way, but...
- But what?

860
01:15:10.798 --> 01:15:14.302
- Well, they only do special events now.
- Dizzy...

861
01:15:14.427 --> 01:15:18.890
Come on, you've still got pull there.
Everybody respects you.

862
01:15:19.015 --> 01:15:22.393
You got the key to the gate, you know?

863
01:15:23.520 --> 01:15:26.439
- You ain't ready for Birdland, man.
- I'm ready.

864
01:15:27.774 --> 01:15:30.610
Miles said, "Come back once
you've lived a little, you know?"

865
01:15:31.653 --> 01:15:34.822
Miles, yeah. That sounds like something
he would've said back in the day.

866
01:15:34.989 --> 01:15:36.616
I lived a little.

867
01:15:38.159 --> 01:15:40.495
Look, you done your time, Chettie.

868
01:15:41.371 --> 01:15:43.831
Makes for some ragged phrases,
but your playing is...

869
01:15:43.998 --> 01:15:46.417
Honest. It's honest.

870
01:15:47.085 --> 01:15:50.838
You got a sound that's all your own,
ain't no denying that.

871
01:15:51.256 --> 01:15:52.799
And I'm ready to play Birdland.

872
01:15:52.966 --> 01:15:55.426
It's not your playing
that I'm worried about.

873
01:15:56.344 --> 01:15:59.806
All things be ready
if your mind be so.

874
01:16:00.598 --> 01:16:02.934
Are you sure
you're ready to come back?

875
01:16:06.563 --> 01:16:09.107
I've learned three different
embouchures, right?

876
01:16:09.232 --> 01:16:11.484
I got a left, I got a centre
and I got a right.

877
01:16:11.609 --> 01:16:13.027
And if you let me sing...

878
01:16:13.152 --> 01:16:17.073
OK, I can play two full sets
before my teeth fall out. OK?

879
01:16:17.532 --> 01:16:19.409
Eyes on the prize.

880
01:16:20.785 --> 01:16:22.996
God, you're a glutton beggar.

881
01:16:27.083 --> 01:16:28.418
I'll get you Birdland.

882
01:16:29.711 --> 01:16:31.713
But don't say I didn't warn you.

883
01:16:35.592 --> 01:16:39.262
- That's amazing! New York City!
- We fly tomorrow.

884
01:16:39.387 --> 01:16:41.264
But I've got my call-back,
you know that.

885
01:16:41.389 --> 01:16:44.058
Well, you're gonna miss that.
This is a big deal, baby.

886
01:16:44.183 --> 01:16:45.893
Well, no, it's a big deal for me, too.

887
01:16:46.060 --> 01:16:48.855
I know, I know. I can't play
Birdland without you.

888
01:16:49.022 --> 01:16:51.691
- Yeah, you can.
- No, no, come on, it'll be so much fun.

889
01:16:51.816 --> 01:16:55.695
- You can do it.
- We get a fancy hotel. It'll be fun.

890
01:16:55.820 --> 01:17:00.116
We can fuck. A little drinking,
a little dancing, a little night life!

891
01:17:00.241 --> 01:17:02.702
Sounds all great, but you know
I gotta get this job.

892
01:17:02.827 --> 01:17:04.412
This is important to me.

893
01:17:04.537 --> 01:17:07.457
And besides, I think it'll be really
good for you, too. To go alone.

894
01:17:07.582 --> 01:17:10.710
No, that wouldn't be good for me,
at all. I don't want to go alone.

895
01:17:12.253 --> 01:17:15.590
But I'm always there for you, Chet.
But I gotta do this for me, right?

896
01:17:15.715 --> 01:17:18.343
You know how I gotta spark off you.

897
01:17:18.468 --> 01:17:21.220
No, you've got to have more faith
in yourself, Chet.

898
01:17:22.180 --> 01:17:25.767
Your best music
was when you were clean.

899
01:17:25.933 --> 01:17:28.686
- Before all the drugs.
- Yeah, not with the methadone.

900
01:17:28.811 --> 01:17:30.271
That shit's worse than a condom.

901
01:17:30.396 --> 01:17:32.607
- God, you think that's such a joke.
- No, c'mon!

902
01:17:32.732 --> 01:17:35.902
Dick says if this show goes well,
I'll be able to take care of everything.

903
01:17:36.069 --> 01:17:38.821
I mean, fuck that audition,
we could be on tour in Europe, you know.

904
01:17:38.946 --> 01:17:40.907
- Fuck that audition?
- You know what I mean.

905
01:17:41.032 --> 01:17:42.492
No, I don't know what you mean.

906
01:17:42.617 --> 01:17:44.410
- Come on.
- What if it doesn't go well?

907
01:17:44.535 --> 01:17:46.329
Why would you say that?

908
01:17:46.454 --> 01:17:48.623
Come on, you're the one person
who believes in me.

909
01:17:48.748 --> 01:17:50.041
Why would you say that?

910
01:17:51.042 --> 01:17:52.960
- Do you believe in me?
- Yeah, I believe in you.

911
01:17:53.169 --> 01:17:56.464
- That's not the point.
- That's exactly the point.

912
01:17:56.589 --> 01:17:58.800
Oh, please don't do this,
please don't do this!

913
01:17:58.925 --> 01:18:04.222
- Please, please, come with me!
- It's just a few days.

914
01:18:05.765 --> 01:18:07.308
I think you can go alone.

915
01:18:12.188 --> 01:18:13.815
Are you serious?

916
01:18:16.359 --> 01:18:18.444
I'm not some groupie, Chet.

917
01:18:19.654 --> 01:18:21.614
I'll go alone.

918
01:19:47.533 --> 01:19:48.701
Chet.

919
01:19:48.868 --> 01:19:51.662
- Where were you, man?
- Well, I'm here now, alright?

920
01:19:53.456 --> 01:19:55.374
Oh, shit.

921
01:19:55.500 --> 01:19:57.376
Miles is here, too?

922
01:19:57.502 --> 01:19:58.920
Why, everybody's here.

923
01:20:14.602 --> 01:20:17.355
- You want that done all the way up?
- Yeah, I like it tight.

924
01:20:17.480 --> 01:20:21.025
<i>♪ And though they'll think us
rather rude...</i>

925
01:20:21.234 --> 01:20:24.487
- You want that tight or you want it...?
- Yeah, tight.

926
01:20:25.696 --> 01:20:27.281
<i>♪ Crazy</i>

927
01:20:30.243 --> 01:20:33.037
A little bit nervous!
That's... That's good.

928
01:20:33.204 --> 01:20:34.997
Here, rinse... Rinse your mouth.

929
01:20:36.040 --> 01:20:39.502
With Miles and Dizzy out there,
you've every reason to be.

930
01:20:39.627 --> 01:20:41.504
I'm not nervous, I'm sick.

931
01:20:42.421 --> 01:20:45.091
You need an aspirin? You getting a cold
or something like that?

932
01:20:45.258 --> 01:20:46.968
I'm not getting a cold.

933
01:20:47.885 --> 01:20:50.221
I ran out of methadone, you know.

934
01:20:50.930 --> 01:20:52.765
What'd you say?

935
01:20:53.307 --> 01:20:55.434
Two days ago, I ran out of methadone.

936
01:20:55.601 --> 01:20:57.645
You... You stopped taking your medicine?

937
01:20:57.770 --> 01:20:59.814
- Chet, come on!
- Don't give me a hard time.

938
01:20:59.939 --> 01:21:01.899
You've got every cat
on the East Coast out there

939
01:21:02.024 --> 01:21:04.902
waiting for you to play
the biggest gig of your career and...

940
01:21:05.027 --> 01:21:06.612
I don't want a career, Dick!

941
01:21:06.737 --> 01:21:11.242
I told you that. If I wanted a career,
I'd get a fucking job! OK? I wanna play!

942
01:21:11.367 --> 01:21:14.328
- All I wanna do is play!
- Hey, hey... Where's Jane?

943
01:21:14.453 --> 01:21:18.374
- Where's Jane?
- She's in LA. She has an audition.

944
01:21:18.541 --> 01:21:20.501
OK. OK...

945
01:21:20.960 --> 01:21:22.879
Look at me. It's going to be alright.

946
01:21:23.004 --> 01:21:26.048
Jazz cats from all over the world,
someone out there has some methadone.

947
01:21:26.173 --> 01:21:29.760
- You think?
- Yeah, relax. Good?

948
01:21:31.721 --> 01:21:33.764
<i>♪ Let's get lost...</i>

949
01:21:34.432 --> 01:21:36.642
Sit down.
You're making me feel nervous.

950
01:21:37.852 --> 01:21:39.186
You'll be fine.

951
01:21:41.856 --> 01:21:44.400
- You look good.
- Thanks, Dick.

952
01:22:08.633 --> 01:22:10.885
Dick, where the fuck is Chet?

953
01:22:11.010 --> 01:22:14.889
He... We need a little more time, OK?

954
01:22:15.014 --> 01:22:16.599
Dick? Where the fuck...?

955
01:22:18.059 --> 01:22:20.102
Fuck me!

956
01:22:20.227 --> 01:22:21.812
Alright, let's go, let's go, let's go.

957
01:22:38.955 --> 01:22:41.958
Chettie, I found some methadone.
I didn't take no for an answer.

958
01:22:42.083 --> 01:22:44.627
Remember Johnny Rad...

959
01:22:45.920 --> 01:22:47.129
Fuck.

960
01:22:56.514 --> 01:22:58.140
It's all going to start again.

961
01:23:03.062 --> 01:23:05.064
Jane will leave you.

962
01:23:10.361 --> 01:23:12.780
I don't think I can play otherwise.

963
01:23:15.783 --> 01:23:17.201
Don't risk it.

964
01:23:18.077 --> 01:23:19.787
Don't play, then.

965
01:23:20.538 --> 01:23:21.622
Or...

966
01:23:25.084 --> 01:23:26.419
Take the methadone.

967
01:23:26.544 --> 01:23:29.964
I mean, you've been playing great on it.
You have. You sounded great.

968
01:23:31.382 --> 01:23:37.471
You said
that if I really nail this show,

969
01:23:37.596 --> 01:23:39.724
there'll be lots of gigs, right?

970
01:23:39.849 --> 01:23:42.560
Maybe a European tour?

971
01:23:43.894 --> 01:23:45.771
But I thought
you didn't want a career.

972
01:23:45.896 --> 01:23:50.568
I want my life back. Dick, come on.

973
01:23:51.027 --> 01:23:54.905
I want to play music
the way that I want to play it.

974
01:23:56.323 --> 01:23:58.909
You know this is my last chance.

975
01:23:59.076 --> 01:24:00.077
- No.
- Yes.

976
01:24:00.202 --> 01:24:01.454
- No.
- Yes.

977
01:24:01.579 --> 01:24:05.291
No, but it is a chance.
But if you...

978
01:24:05.458 --> 01:24:09.712
If you sing with the tongue of angels
but you have no love,

979
01:24:09.837 --> 01:24:12.757
then you're a clanging cymbal.

980
01:24:13.049 --> 01:24:14.300
What...?

981
01:24:14.467 --> 01:24:16.844
What does that mean?

982
01:24:17.470 --> 01:24:20.681
I don't want you to be empty out there.

983
01:24:26.520 --> 01:24:28.731
It gives me confidence.

984
01:24:29.690 --> 01:24:33.736
It does. Time gets wider, you know.

985
01:24:34.904 --> 01:24:38.616
Not just longer. And I can...

986
01:24:38.783 --> 01:24:44.497
Oh... I can get inside every note.
I can.

987
01:24:44.622 --> 01:24:47.458
- Every pretty note.
- Yeah.

988
01:24:49.877 --> 01:24:51.212
But that's you.

989
01:24:51.754 --> 01:24:53.964
That's all you.

990
01:24:55.883 --> 01:24:57.718
It's always been you.

991
01:24:59.178 --> 01:25:00.930
Your choice.

992
01:25:30.960 --> 01:25:32.253
Come on, cat.

993
01:25:54.567 --> 01:25:55.985
I didn't think you were coming.

994
01:25:56.110 --> 01:25:58.779
- They changed my dates.
- Nice.

995
01:25:58.904 --> 01:26:02.616
- How's he doing?
- Great.

996
01:26:02.741 --> 01:26:04.535
Is he coming out soon?

997
01:26:09.957 --> 01:26:12.918
I ain't got time, man.
This dude can't play anyhow.

998
01:26:13.043 --> 01:26:14.420
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Come on.

999
01:26:15.421 --> 01:26:18.382
Miles, it's my fault. Sit.

1000
01:26:34.690 --> 01:26:35.983

Hello, Miles.
