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
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.
