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
- Right up the alley of anyone who likes secrets inside secrets and anyone interested in what war does to people. Nobody is quite who they seem. Sits nicely alongside Casablanca or Das Boot. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost.
- The mood
- Harrowing, eye-opening.
- The pace
- Moves through the story clearly, at 1 hr 28 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.
In the small town of Rechnitz a terrible crime against humanity was performed during the holocaust. Until now, no-one dares to talk about it.
