Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and little 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 anyone drawn to the darker side of the street and people who enjoy a knot in their stomach. Keeps you leaning forward. Fans of The Naked City or The Maltese Falcon should feel right at home.
The mood
Tense, gritty.
The pace
Well paced, at 1 hr 22 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1941: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you want something to relax to.

A young promoter is accused of the murder of Vicky Lynn, a young actress he "discovered" as a waitress while out with ex-actor Robin Ray and gossip columnist Larry Evans.
