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
Right up the alley of fans of prison dramas and anyone in the mood for a love story. The walls close in, and so does the tension.
The mood
Warm and romantic.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1977: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Thomas, the son of a prison warden, falls for Martin, one of the prison inmates. After Martin is released, they try to build a relationship and a life together but, no one will leave them alone.
