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
- Great for fans of a well-timed joke and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Paris does a lot of the work, and it looks wonderful.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 36 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1970: an older pace and style.
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
An African travels to Paris to learn about the construction of tall buildings, but is soon taken up with the oddities of French life.
