Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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 likes their monsters enormous and anyone who likes secrets inside secrets, this one's for you. The scale is huge: humanity is very much the underdog. Fans of The Glass Castle should feel right at home. Nobody is quite who they seem.
The mood: Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace: Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 42 min.
What might put you off: It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Made in 1973: an older pace and style.
Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

The young but traveled Ana arrives in a manor in the countryside of Spain to work as nanny of three girls and finds a dysfunctional family.
