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 anyone looking to switch off and smile and anyone who likes a world with its own rules. Soaked in 1970s atmosphere. Same wavelength as Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. or My Girl.
The mood
Funny with heart.
The pace
Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 22 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1979: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

A young girl dreams of a birthday party, where family and friends from her day-care center are invited. But in fact, her parents are always quarreling.
