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. Soaked in 1970s atmosphere.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 20 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1970: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
A mental patient in a psychiatric hospital is escorted into an operating room, where electrodes are attached to her scalp. The doctors dissect his brain and we enter the brain with a loud, jarring cry. In this space detached from reality, a group of actors perform elaborate interpretive dances. They jump, land on top of each other, place their hands on their bodies and form various shapes.
