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 anyone who likes knowing it really happened and romantics. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards. Sits nicely alongside The Zone of Interest or Reds. The chemistry carries it.
- The mood
- Easygoing.
- The pace
- Never drags, at 1 hr 42 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Bio-pic about Czech composer Antonin Dvoraák at the height of his career. Dvorák learns that his love and lifelong muse is ill and must return to her side.
