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
One for people who believe in big gestures and crime fans. The chemistry carries it. Same wavelength as The Wild One or West Side Story. Very British, in all the best ways.
The mood
Dark and gritty, warm and romantic.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 34 min.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1972: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

Based on the Alan Sillitoe short story. The film tells the story of the ill-fated love between Tony, a petty thief from a working-class family, and Doris, the daughter of an upwardly mobile scrap dealer.
