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.
