Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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
A natural pick for anyone interested in what war does to ordinary people and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Leaves you with something to think about. Liked Pan's Labyrinth? This is a good next one.
The mood
Intense.
The pace
Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1969: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A sharecropper and his daughter, a swarthy beauty, flee from the hacienda on which they live and join the Mexican Revolution.
