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
Great for people who'll be looking things up afterwards and book lovers. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards. Shelve it next to The Big Short or The Wizard of Lies. Adapted from a book, so readers can compare notes.
The mood
Funny with heart.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 25 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1977: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Based on the book "Spend, Spend, Spend" by Vivian Nicholson and Stephen Smith. Story of pools winner, Vivian Nicholson.
