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.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Tailor-made for anyone with a complicated family (so, everyone) and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true.
The mood
Funny with heart, romantic.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 8 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1931: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A Harvard football star disobeys his upper class parents and runs off with his true love.
