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
- Aimed squarely at anyone who likes to be kept guessing and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Best watched without your phone in hand.
- The mood
- Tense.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 9 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in Russian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1929: an older pace and style.
- Not ideal if you just want to unwind.
Directed by Yuri Zhelyabuzhsky.
