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
Right up the alley of anyone who likes to solve it before the characters do and book lovers. The investigation drives everything, one lead at a time. Shelve it next to The Bird with the Crystal Plumage or Evil Under the Sun. Adapted from a book, so readers can compare notes.
The mood
Tense, gritty.
The pace
Well paced, at 1 hr 55 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1959: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you want something to relax to.

A police inspector comes into contact with people of all types and dispositions during a grueling murder investigation.
