**But don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay, little Valentine, stay
Each day is Valentine's Day

apart from some poor acting it was a great biopic, Ethan Hawke's portrayal of Chet Baker was truly believable, captured the essence of the jazz legend at a dramatic turning point in his career.
