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.
八十年代的巴黎夜衬出夏洛特脆弱敏感的美。@72Berlinale
熟睡的城市，流动的车辆，还有独自徘徊着的人们啊，给自己唱一曲Lullaby，再做个长久的美梦吧。
是那种要在宽荧幕上放的片。最近重刷柏林看过的片子就觉得很容易走神，很大程度上因为这部片子里的故事是无序的，你不知道主人公会往哪个方向发展。没有走高也没有堕落，一切自然流淌。像是在巴黎的夜，在街上扫scooter时候被一个爱笑的男孩搭讪，一起走了一段路又在地铁口吻面礼告别。没有问来路，个人信息，就这样失散。某种程度上讲了我最喜欢的那部分巴黎，是游离于"巴黎"之外的。无关历史、文化、热门地表标，饮食、艺术和发展。只是漂泊，只是自由。
“我一开始想象的生活并不是这样的，但我们还是尽力去热爱它了，对吗？”
今年柏林节参赛的片子，家庭关系写得细腻、生活，角度也有特点。可看。
却在最后一个草地上畅谈的镜头
音乐打光不错，某种程度沉溺于状态而内容贫乏，但拍得温柔细腻特别能唤醒某些感受。最后母亲与女儿分享护佑她的“生育女神”好感人
甘斯布都演高中生的妈了，可怕。但女神终归还是女神。
音乐好好听，几位主角的嗓音好可爱啊，想学法语的同学可以来“听听”，看看美丽的城市风物，找找心动的感觉～一部看上去“与世无争”的主竞赛电影，有轻盈温柔的怀旧质感，氛围舒适，十分难得。72.Berlinale
法语的每个单词都粘在一起了 说出来全是浪漫调调
法国电影的剧本还处于肌无力的时代。还没有重量级导演出现
“会有别人眼中的我们，那些碎片，我们曾以为瞥见的，我们的碎片，会由我们的梦来滋养，我们从来都不是相同的，每一次，我们都只是外来者，是夜旅人，是他们的想象，就像被留在房间里的旧镜子上的，那些脆弱的阴影。”
这是我喜欢的法国电影。静谧的夜晚，淡淡的忧伤，破碎的婚姻却充满力量的从低谷走出来，还能帮助感染另一个小姑娘。法式的浪漫优雅，美人叼只烟，温柔而坚定的信念，那些有质感复古的画面，浪漫动听的旋律，在这样的夕阳余晖，夜晚灯下，第一缕晨光，循环往复，日子一天天的幸福而美好。
我爱这部于平淡生活中发现美表达爱的电影，特别爱，它是一束光☀
夏洛特真的和小时候长得一模一样，我真的想在电影里看她和女人上次床。
每个时代的人都经历遭遇和低谷，但在全世界充满希望的80‘S，人生低谷、问题少女、想成为诗人的男孩…通过努力都还是能向前推进，于是遭遇变得很轻的掠过！
人物除了Gainsbourg都不太讨喜 没什么共鸣
我以为会是放浪不羁巴黎夜，结果却是满富温馨母子情。
相当舒服的一部电影，偶尔也想过上这种喜悦会油然而生的日子啊。。
Charlotte 好美 大概因为成熟女人的那种温柔吧 长卷发也是氛围感加分 整体的氛围感超好
