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.

Who'll love it: Great for people who love a story where everyone knows everyone and spy-story fans. The small-town setting is half the character. Shelve it next to My Cousin Vinny or McFarland, USA. Nobody is quite who they seem.
The mood: Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace: Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 46 min.
What might put you off: Made in 1948: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

In a small town in Kansas, a county attorney in an unhappy marriage falls in love with another woman.
