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
Right up the alley of anyone who's survived a family wedding and anyone who loves a will-they-won't-they. Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse. Liked The Magnificent Ambersons or Match Point? This is a good next one. The chemistry carries it.
The mood
Warm and romantic.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 10 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1927: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.

A young flapper tricks her childhood sweetheart into marrying her. He really loves another woman, but didn't marry her for fear the marriage would end in divorce, like his parents'. Complications ensue.
