Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for crime fans and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something. A good follow-up to Angels with Dirty Faces or Dog Day Afternoon.
The mood
Dark and gritty.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 15 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1957: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

The story of a PR man hired by a millionaire to go to Reno to prevent his daughter from marrying an opportunistic gambler.
