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
If you count yourself among anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter, this one's for you. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Sits nicely alongside Pillow Talk or High Society.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 24 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • It's in Polish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1937: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Two apartment house dwellers, although unrelated, share the same name. One is an older man with an appreciation for and love of classical music, while the other is a younger man addicted to swing music. The niece of the older man arrives for a visit and gets into the wrong apartment. Complications arise.
