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.
没有利用好作者和编辑讲故事这层叙事结构，换言之没给观众留下虚实难辨的观感，只是停留在捋清故事的层次，这个卡司执行得这么普通还真是可惜。
失散20年的情侣还有机会么？有。还会再分开么？会……
A字形的铁塔，隐藏着爱人的名字，是公之于众的爱，是无法言说的憾，是至死不渝的念。
其实时空错乱这本身就是一件恐怖的事情，又何况在鬼门之中呐。
这么弱都还敢独自去驱魔，高手这是高手啊，还有太多bug了根本很多细节都圆不了，譬如他妈妈撕掉的那一页究竟有啥用啊，还这么多镜头，不过有一说一，恐怖效果做得还是挺不错的，特别是那只女鬼，恐怖的阴影伴随着我两天
剧本配不上卡司。小说家能够做的，应该还有更多。
在工程奇迹面前，人类个体的那点情爱实在不值一提，何况纠葛接近狗血。与其浪费时间讲爱情故事，不如尊重一下其它设计，别轻浮地取笑一笔带过，讲讲其它投标方案的设计思想，它们不论贤愚也都反映了当时的思想风气，观念理想的碰撞、智力技巧的比拼，远比爱情宏大，离开爱情不会讲人生故事，导演们实在娘娘腔的矫情，我们等一部技术宅角度的伟大电影等得太久了，哪怕这电影制作扎实，也实在让人想手动差评。爱情是我们普通人没法创造伟大作品的寄托，对伟大作品创造者，爱情就是点缀，插曲。
人格分裂鬼、时空重叠、地缚灵等等概念虽说不算新颖，组合在一起倒是挺有悬疑感。但是恐怖片给主人公强行降智或者削弱真的不能忍。男主就算没有法师血统，就算是个普通人也有好多次机会让鬼一击毙命，结果非要罗里吧嗦犹犹豫豫，强行战五渣气的我肺都炸了，前半部分还有点害怕，后半部分完全愤怒了。
没看懂 太黑了 啥时空错乱啥的 男主生死这条线一点都没理清楚
一个怪没杀掉，反而自己也是怪。
看到那些鬼手其实是带的黑手套，我就笑了...
剧本配不上卡司。小说家能够做的，应该还有更多。
【2021-9-17】比想象中好看~微恐加了点烧脑，男主通过咒语和表针穿梭于同空间的不同时空，演员都很养眼，男主演技好评！结局有些意难平，其实你已经死了，但你也不知道到底是啥时候死的
哈哈 看完这个电影 我被女主的大眼睛给吸引了 我要去追性爱自修室 三部一起应该很爽。
运镜剪辑还有灯光，差评，一路看下来眼睛都快瞎了，思路也随着时间线切换一断一断的。不是说你不能切时间线，你起码要让观众的思维连贯一点啊兄弟！你现在就像是爷吃块饼干吃一半，你硬把饼干从爷嘴里掏出来，再把另一块塞进来，然后无限重复以上动作。
评分偏低了，三条故事线还是很清晰的。就是一惊一乍完全不恐怖？
穿越 阴阳 幽闭 既有墓地邂逅 潜伏 也有两个月亮的影子 最后四不像
都好像以前港片的鬼！
讲述历史情节中间还夹带了一段虐恋 最后人海中遥遥相望一眼 还挺戳be美学爱好者的
Emma的面容似乎更适合流媒体屏，本片中的颜艺表演堪比大宝贝。
