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.
非常无趣，只剩导演的一腔热情。加菲演技有点过誉，他适合演自带圣光的角色，某些时刻很动人，但没有辨识度，和其他形象没什么区别(如《血战钢锯岭》)。歌不好听，因为Larson的那首Come to Your Senses勉强给及格分吧。
life is too short to idle around. 30岁了，还是没有过多的成绩，tick, tick, let's not let the boom happen
但几首歌曲外加加菲的表演实在是太好听太好看了！！希望加菲能够拿到影帝，胜在讨喜。
好于 91% 歌舞片 ?? 反正还是觉得芝加哥和红磨坊无法超越
get不到。正如许多人吐槽的，口水歌无法引发共鸣。
加菲真的有才，从战争片硬汉到穿梭市井的超英，再到为梦想的癫狂音乐剧作者都能驾驭。重重叠叠的阿卡贝拉加适时切入的其他乐器真的很爽。“剧作家就是要一部接着一部写作品，希望能有所回应。继续创作吧，孩子，写你熟悉的东西。”
才华的绽放在死亡之时最渺小，却在之后盛开。
结果Stephen Sondheim这就去世了。他给Jon的电话留言，突然觉得，真的是应该多给别人一些善意和鼓励，简单几句也许会对那个看重你的人有意想不到的作用。歌都好好听。
能够坚持到最后的追梦者都是英雄，无论梦想是否成真。
虽然到现在我还是不太能get到rent也不太能get到天才的年龄焦虑，但整体剧情挺流畅的歌曲也好听，观看的过程很舒畅，对于路人来说也就是一部很不错的电影了
看之前没了解片子任何背景，然后边看边一直在感叹好像rent啊，看到最后才发现拍的就是rent的原作者的故事……
单纯说电影，影像表达力度是不足的，但情感太充沛了，饱含热情，悲伤与焦虑，生日那天，如果我没事可做，就一个人二刷这部电影吧
8.9/10 《superbia》is gorgeous.我喜欢每一首每一部。一直拖着没看是因为我以为这是《至暗时刻》的姊妹篇。但这是一场磨难后的第100部电影。我的荣幸。
正在奔三看着真的hits too hard。舞台和现实，Jon和Jonathan，Jonathan和Lin和每一个创作者，一层一层串起来，像任何一个音符都恰如其位不能改动的完美和弦，全程不敢按暂停（完全符合第一版trailer的感觉啊啊）。甚至也借此完全避免了音乐剧电影突然开口唱歌容易尴尬的问题。以及Sunday和Rent彩蛋疯狂放送，Lin你太懂了呜呜呜 // trailer看起来也太好了 节拍 时钟 鸣笛 打铃 心跳 tick tick tick tick boom! Fear or love baby don't say the answer
musical来说歌不行真的硬伤 讲述故事的方式也太平庸
好惊喜，属于个人年度最佳那一档，喜欢这个调调，音乐也很好听。我需要写一首命题音乐的时候可以写出无数首其它歌，这不就是赶论文的我可以写出任何不是论文的东西嘛，太relatable了😂🙈快三十的人看着有点点焦虑
电影里呈现出的Jonathan Larson，其实和他的那部最著名的作品一样，充斥着某种程度的自私、自以为是、自我中心……但是，我无法讨厌这一切，因为我无法拒绝其中蕴含的真挚和才华。看了不少关于Rent的各种缺点的小论文，很多我也无意反驳，但它始终打动我心，Jonathan Larson也始终让我无比难过——如果他能够继续下去，他一定会创造出不留任何遗憾的作品。
剧中剧复杂结构，音乐一首一首不断交集颂唱而出。
剥开音乐剧的壳，内核就是个三十岁焦虑的故事，不是粉丝，没有共鸣。
44/365 “希望人生的每一天都这样度过”
