Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for people who like stories that don't look away and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. It deals with hard things honestly. A good follow-up to Ninotchka or Irma la Douce. Paris does a lot of the work, and it looks wonderful.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 1 hr 5 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1932: an older pace and style.
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
An ultra-efficient Plain Jane secretary blossoms when she accompanies her boss on a business trip to Paris.
