\"\"Born to Be Blue. Hola miedo.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHola miedo. Hola muerte. \u00a1Que te follen!<\/em>\u201d. He aqu\u00ed la filosof\u00eda de vida del m\u00fasico jonkie<\/em> \u2013 genial y heroin\u00f3mano \u2013 Chet Baker, resumida en tres cortas frases y elemento central de la pel\u00edcula Born to Be Blue<\/em> (2015).<\/p>\n

La cadena de televisi\u00f3n en streaming<\/em> Netflix acaba de incluir en su oferta la cinta, rodada hace ya unos pocos a\u00f1os, que relata parte de la vida del famoso trompetista. Una historia que se presta a ser trasladada al cine como pocas: Chet Baker, el paradigma del artista maldito, el blanquito genial de la Costa Oeste, el James Dean del jazz. Se trata de una pel\u00edcula de producci\u00f3n canadiense dirigida por Robert Budreau e interpretada en sus principales papeles por Ethan Hawke y Carmen Egogo, a partir de un guion del propio director.<\/p>\n

El problema de las pel\u00edculas biogr\u00e1ficas es que el espectador conoce el final. As\u00ed que el director tiene que concentrarse en contarnos la historia, que ya sabemos c\u00f3mo termina, de forma atractiva y, en este caso, Budreau ha tirado de varios recursos f\u00edlmicos. El primero de ellos es una especie de meta narrativa que riza el rizo: Ethan Hawke interpreta a Chet Baker interpret\u00e1ndose a s\u00ed mismo en una pel\u00edcula sobre su propia vida. Luego, las escenas en blanco y negro alternan con saltos temporales y espaciales entre Lucca, Italia (1966), New York City (1954) y Los \u00c1ngeles (1966). Budreau juega adem\u00e1s la baza de la est\u00e9tica con la ayuda del excelente responsable de fotograf\u00eda que hace un trabajo notable, lo que, sumado a una banda sonora de excepci\u00f3n (algo que en este caso se da por descontado), da como resultado una pel\u00edcula con la que se disfruta durante las casi dos horas que dura.<\/p>\n

En cuanto a la historia, se limita a contarnos un fragmento de la vida del protagonista (tom\u00e1ndose unas cuantas licencias), un lapso relativamente breve en el que Chet Baker acaba de dejar la droga, intenta mantenerse limpio, conservar una relaci\u00f3n afectiva estable y relanzar su carrera volviendo a empezar desde lo m\u00e1s bajo, esto es, tocando en una pizzer\u00eda por las propinas y trabajando en una gasolinera. Y est\u00e1 a punto de lograrlo; vuelve a grabar, vuelve a tocar en el Birdland de Nueva York, y consigue el aplauso de grandes como Dizzie Gillespie o Miles Davis (este \u00faltimo a rega\u00f1adientes). Todo ello justo cuando vuelve a caer en la adicci\u00f3n, una vez m\u00e1s, y \u00e9sta ya para siempre. Pero, \u00a1eh, se trata de Chet Baker; lo tomas o lo dejas!<\/p>\n

Ethan Hawke interpreta a un Chet Baker cre\u00edble (no tanto en las escenas en las que canta) apoyado por un excelente plantel de secundarios, para contarnos la historia de un m\u00fasico al que no le hubiese venido mal seguir el consejo de su productor, Dick Bock, e intentar \u201cser feliz durante m\u00e1s de diez segundos seguidos<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n
