“Broken Heart (Williamsburg Version)” is the second half of a two‑part music‑video “opus” by French Horn Rebellion and Brooklyn film team the Sniper Twins. Released in 2009 as part of the duo’s self‑funded “Up All Night EP,” the song was written by brothers Robert and David Perlick‑Molinari and later appeared on their debut album . French pop‑culture sites remember that the band’s singles “Up All Night” and “Broken Heart” became cult hits in 2009 largely because of their “delirious” videos directed by the Sniper Twins . A 2016 retrospective notes that those early clips even made a ketchup‑and‑mustard prop famous —a sign of the duo’s playful, DIY aesthetic. In the “Williamsburg” video, the brothers extend that quirky street‑corner humor, darting through Brooklyn while acting out the song’s tale of romantic frustration; a UK blog reviewing the companion “Up All Night” clip called it “crazy and offbeat,” shot on street corners and full of antics , and the same lo‑fi energy carries into the “Broken Heart” sequel. While their eccentric props and hipster caricatures helped the band stand out, the gimmicks can sometimes overwhelm the music’s more introspective lyrics, making the visuals feel gimmicky. A more focused narrative might have given the heartfelt theme greater resonance, but the video still captures the brothers’ early charm and the Williamsburg scene that fostered their sound.
