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 sports fans (and people who swear they aren't) and animal lovers. You don't need to know the game to feel the big moments. An animal steals a fair few scenes.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 22 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1940: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Myles Vanders feuds with hardnosed stable owner Davis Lockwood. Myles takes revenge by romancing and marrying Lockwood's daughter Linda. But as the big race looms nearer, Myles is distracted to discover that he really loves Linda.
