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: Best for spy-story fans and people who like their stories with a little danger. Nobody is quite who they seem. Fans of The Perfect Neighbor should feel right at home.
The mood: Dark and gritty, eye-opening.
The pace: Well paced for a documentary, at 1 hr 18 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off: It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Made in 1974: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

In Casablanca, a group of filmmakers conduct discussions with people about their expectations of, and aspirations for, the emerging Moroccan national cinema. When a disgruntled worker kills his superior accidentally, their inquest shifts focus, and they begin to probe the motives of the killing.
