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 people who like stories about real, flawed people. Leaves you with something to think about.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 24 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1958: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A priest falls in love with a rich man's daughter.
