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
- Best for music lovers and people who love a story about friendship. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Shelve it next to High School Musical 2 or Singin' in the Rain. The friendships are the beating heart of it.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Zips along, at 1 hr 29 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Anna is a primary school teacher and a nervous wreck. The pupils do whatever they want to her. Thilo is an actor - but mainly on his business card. To earn money, he sells wine in a call center, or rather, he tries to. One day, mutual friends Valerie and Moritz play fate and bring the two together. But this also goes wrong: Anna has a minor nervous breakdown and Thilo - falls in love! Head over heels! But first they have to solve their own problems, face up to their reality and admit that they need to change something in their lives. And gradually Anna and Thilo find their way back to themselves and to each other, because life writes the most beautiful stories with love and music...
