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
- Made for adventure lovers and anyone who loves a strong drama. A good one for when you want to be swept off somewhere else. Same wavelength as True Grit.
- The mood
- Exciting.
- The pace
- Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1970: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Limpopo, dating from 1970, directed and produced by Jorge de Sousa, is a story about safaris where the protagonist was a rich industrialist from Porto. It was filmed in Lourenço Marques, in the Limpopo colony and the Maputo elephant reserve.
