En 1974, le milieu musical underground de New York reçoit une claque en découvrant un groupe de marginaux du Queens : les Ramones. En jouant dans des bars minables, ils ébranlent les fondations de l’univers musical de l’époque. Par la suite, ils parcourent le monde et créent un mouvement qui résonne sur deux générations. Sans battre des records de ventes, ce groupe punk légendaire a fait des tournées qui ont attiré les foules pendant 22 ans. Ce documentaire raconte leurs hauts et leurs bas.

A group of Baker fans, ranging from ex-associates to ex-wives and children, talk about the man. Weber’s film traces the man’s career from the 1950s, playing with jazz greats like Charlie Parker, Gerry Mulligan, and Russ Freeman, to the 1980s, when his heroin addiction and domestic indifference kept him in Europe. By juxtaposing these two decades, Weber presents a sharp contrast between the younger, handsome Baker — the statuesque idol who resembled a mix of James Dean and Jack Kerouac — to what he became, “a seamy looking drugstore cowboy-cum-derelict,” as J. Hoberman put it in his Village Voice review.
