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
Great for anyone who wants a laugh and anyone who loves a strong drama. Easy company after a long day. Shelve it next to Blindspotting.
The mood
Funny with heart.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 20 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1918: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

Patricia O'Rourke, a good-natured prankster who works as a copy girl for the Sentinel , angers her co-worker Stubbs and is about to lose her job when the managing editor offers her one more chance. Her assignment is to explain the clue that links the Hope Mission, a derelict home run by millionaire Hunter Mason and his secretary, Monty Latham, with a series of local robberies. When Hunter discovers Patricia in his office, he assumes that she is a crook in need of reforming and takes her into his home to be cared for by his mother.....
