Ethan Hawke is GREAT in this
In BORN TO BE BLUE, Ethan Hawke gives one of the strongest, most mature performances of his career. It’s a spot-on bit of casting as Hawke’s chiseled, hollow face bares a striking physical resemblance to Baker’s. But that casting stretches well beyond looks. Baker was a notoriously laid back guy and Hawke captures that same understated grace throughout Born To Be Blue. Hawke’s performance is a study in understatement, straight down to the near whispery speech patterns: http://www.cutprintfilm.com/reviews/born-to-be-blue/
