Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no 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
Tailor-made for anyone who likes knowing it really happened and romantics. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards. Same wavelength as The Young Victoria.
The mood
Intense, warm and romantic.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 34 min.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1941: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

A biopic of the legendary Benjamin Disraeli, his rise from a foppish young novelist to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and confidante of Queen Victoria.
