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
Made for people who like stories about real, flawed people. Leaves you with something to think about.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Gives its people room to develop, at 30 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1949: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Markopoulos called Lysis “a study in stream-of-consciousness poetry of a lost, wandering, homosexual soul” and felt that the film foreshadowed The Illiac Passion.
