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
Aimed squarely at fans of a well-timed joke and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Good for nights when you want to switch off and laugh.
The mood
Funny with heart.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 11 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1921: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Lulu Bett lives in the home of her sister Diana and Diana's husband, Dwight. One day Dwight's brother, Ninian, shows up, and he and Lulu Bett have a mock marriage. Dwight declares the marriage legal, but it turns out that Ninian already has a wife.
