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 lovers of period drama and romantics. The costumes and settings are a feast on their own. Sits nicely alongside How to Marry a Millionaire or An American in Paris.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Quick and easy-going, at 1 hr 27 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1935: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

A Hollywood actor visits a mythical country where he looks like the king and confuses the queen.
