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.

Who'll love it: If you count yourself among anyone interested in what war does to ordinary people and people who like stories about real, flawed people, this one's for you. Leaves you with something to think about. Same wavelength as The Guns of Navarone or Paths of Glory.
The mood: Intense.
The pace: Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 16 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off: Made in 1957: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

An Army lawyer defends a World War II hero and his men accused of desertion.
