Haunted by the memory of Walter Holderlin, a soldier he killed during World War I, French musician Paul Renard (Phillips Holmes) confesses to a priest (Frank Sheridan), who grants him absolution. Using the address on a letter he found on the dead man's body, Paul then travels to Germany to find his family.
As anti-French sentiment continues to permeate Germany, Dr. Holderlin (Lionel Barrymore) initially refuses to welcome Paul into his home, but changes his mind when his son's fiancée Elsa identifies him as the man who has been leaving flowers on Walter's grave. Rather than reveal the real connection between them, Paul tells the Holderlin family he was a friend of their son, who attended the same musical conservatory he did.
Although the hostile townspeople and local gossips disapprove, the Holderlins befriend Paul, who finds himself falling in love with Elsa (Nancy Carroll). When she shows Paul her former fiancé's bedroom, he becomes distraught and tells her the truth. She convinces him not to confess to Walter's parents, who have embraced him as their second son, and Paul agrees to forego easing his conscience and stays with his adopted family. Dr. Holderlin presents Walter's violin to Paul, who plays it while Elsa accompanies him on the piano.
The film's original title, The Man I Killed, was changed to The Fifth Commandment to avoid giving "wrong impressions in the minds of the public about the character of the story." It ultimately was released as Broken Lullaby.
呼吸部分跟冥想相关，这一部分比较吸引人。但是关于救赎，电影表达的差劲。
腔调挺足的，调性一点点邪性，一点点古典，当然布列松啥的我我我还get不了。关键问题是这个故事我看不懂，是反战？反漂亮国？救赎？那这些和算牌和赌博又有啥关系？就男主一张冷脸西装革履的坐在赌桌前去拯救一个乱七八糟的小屁孩，我莫民的觉得这是bl场景~~~救命
Tye Tye水城主竞赛三刷。打破赌片常见的刺激，抑或是神算超能提供的聪明；一次启程、一次探视、交织在其中的主人公，提供了复杂却又触及内心的角色研究。还有在闪回部分采取的镜头也异常地有风格，并带来更强烈与不安夹杂的冲击。2021年了我还是在慨叹Tiffany Haddish的过度选角以及资源妒忌，只能说Paul试着挖掘了她；并且里面的每个演员都经由这种挖掘与调度- -有熟人，有看到选角消息以为是来搞笑的，成就了许多意想不到的化学反应。
镜头过于缓慢，牌桌戏十分无聊，没有演技的演员根本演不来这种无聊的戏。大片大片的无趣独白，没有演技的演员也演不来。还好电影里有好演员。 配乐满到爆炸，配乐确实很好听，但也太慢了，每过一会就响起一段配乐，都不管搭不搭。
女主向男主父亲介绍那段我看了好几遍，爱情就是会这样，包括男主那句我知道你的一切和一切
与写得有些糟糕的书改编还是有好一点，主角也是chemistry越来越强，cheesy but acceptable，lucy演得还不错，演员微表情很赞，这么cheesy的题材能演好
没声音看的 哈佛mba毕业和这女主当同事 我会觉得他是个废物 肯定不会和他谈😅
男主确实有点帅。真的那种互相怼的性张力太足了。商业经营精神洁癖身材又好，绝绝子了，也算是今年看过的chick film里面还算笑的开心的了！
+1星男主 totally my type
2星半。这片实在是看的让人有些三观崩裂，像是chick movie型的爱情喜剧又有些在塑造人物上的各种妥协，最后又强行大团圆也是挺奇怪的。
（好听的BGM，二星半）
不用带脑子看，感情转变很突然，演员好看就可以。
慢，且藏著掖著在一個很故意克制低調的氛圍下加上不太合理的配樂非常干擾。施拉德對手的理解跟布列松對手的理解也區別太大了!!施拉德是好編劇，但導演能力真太讓人捏把汗了，音品也一言難盡⋯留下印象的是夢境魚眼的奇觀運動和伊薩克抽抽臉
真的好甜甜的我满地打滚啊啊啊啊啊，ps男主笑起来好像个笨蛋帅哥，还是保持高冷形象好了
包装于赌牌中的复仇故事，拍得有气无力，节奏缓慢。导演大约迷恋旧时电影，从片头、配乐、风格均有诸多模仿。同时又紧跟现在的时髦，总是爱用画外音，开场一大段独白，让人以为是广播剧。其实老老实实拍一部赌场片就好，又偏偏要加入很多的元素，还扯入虐囚酷刑之类的，两者契合得相当生硬。

美的都刚刚好，chemistry也刚刚好，非常棒
The body never forgets. 审讯的痛感在想象中无限放大，白色的布包裹着家具，等着暴力和悔恨。
五十度灰的清新版？色调舒服，剧情流畅，有时像在看Emily in Paris。
