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.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Leaves you with something to think about.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 53 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1935: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

As California gubernatorial candidate Burton is about to cast his vote a truck crashes into the polling booth, critically injuring him and his opponent. A flashback traces his career from unemployed veteran to dockworker to lawyer. A side thread traces his tortured relationship with his wife.
