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.
索德伯格已经很多年没有过合格的作品了 不是他本身不够优秀 他的很多镜头有些过时 节奏也偏慢 本片虽然融合了大数据和人工智能的现代元素 女主的造型也十分赛博朋克 但关于女权独立的观点还放在几年前 从《后窗》的视角与床戏姿势还是能看出本片有限的角度
5. B站，为爱发电
现实生活与虚拟剧集之间的交互吻合，台词太过凝练以至于大部分喋喋不休的对话都看得人云里雾里。露西在片场失神的那一刻，事业与家庭同向推进的聚合点就此拆散，她在摄影棚内的表演真实浓度也瞬间降到最低，最后因为婚姻的一番波折放弃了事业上的想法。前四分之三细碎冗杂的争执让人实在难以入戏，只有后四分之一妮可和巴登开始发力表演才慢慢找回感觉。索金目前还不太具备能把他一流的剧本转化为二流影像的能力，半纪实访谈、排练时间记录、双线回忆插叙都没能为正常影片叙事做出应有的贡献。
我就是很爱艾伦索金
后面可能开始精彩吧，看了35分钟真坚持不下去了。
She’s wearing a mask…
我真的是为了再看到Meaby和Buster对戏才看完的……整个卡司，很浪费
剧中以曾经的一部热播肥皂剧回顾并讲述好莱坞的一个历史断面，讲述一个人戏里戏外人生的选择。不喜欢
纪录片的方式，追述一段冷战时代广播秀的往事。
非常需要耐性，如果不是妮可的话完全看不下去，好在后面渐入佳境…
索德伯格再次证明90分钟足够。少说废话多闭嘴，这是最值得当下好莱坞学习的部分。
艾伦·索金在本片中依然展示出其在台词和剧本结构方面的创作才能，借助尼可（继《时时刻刻》后再次作出形象上的巨大突破）和哈维尔出色的演驿，通过戏中戏的形式将一出明星婚姻往事拍得戏剧性十足。遗憾的是作为故事核心的夫妻之间那些狗屁倒灶的事属实无趣，而对于麦卡锡主义问题导演的态度也较为暧昧。对比索金的前几部作品，既没有《七君子》的积极性，也没有《茉莉牌局》的娱乐性，更没有《乔布斯传》对角色的深度挖掘。
这个片子还是算了。只看了开头后面快进的，实在看不下去。
好莱坞女星的演艺奋斗史，里面50年代的时代特征非常明显：女性主义，种族主义，冷战时期的政治对抗，以电视节目为代表的大众文化。Nicole的表演很出彩。
剧本太长，台词太多，看着好累，主要是我自己的家庭婚姻都麻烦缠身，那还顾得着看别人的呢？
美国导演体制化后以后的众多顽疾之一 ——对世界无话可说无表达欲之下，只能一天到晚找各种题材改编，以至于当年戈达尔吐槽，拍个圣经故事都要找小说来改编。
入室打架再杀死几个人即可治愈人群心理障碍。

最后她选择在剧中装傻，但现实中还是骗不了自己。
6分，其实完全可以用同样的班底搭配瑞恩墨菲做一部8集的剧，每一集一定非常精彩，但是放现在这个130分钟左右的电影，哪怕台词量再多还是免不了拖沓，且没有迷影向的点子，妮可最后一场戏演的很好。
