Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone who loves an underdog and people who love a true story told well, this one's for you. You don't need to know the game to feel the big moments. A good follow-up to O.J.: Made in America or Senna.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Well paced for a documentary, at 53 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

In 1973, John DeLorean was most likely going to be the next president of General Motors, when he turned his back on his $650,000 a year job and focused on a grander dream... to build his own car company (the first new American car company since 1925). In 1978, DeLorean built the most advanced auto factory in the world in under 18 months, from the ground up in a small suburb of Belfast, Northern Ireland.
