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
A natural pick for anyone who likes knowing it really happened and history buffs. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards. A good follow-up to A Million Miles Away.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 11 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1942: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

This Passing Parade series short chronicles the political life of Francisco Madero, who tried to bring democracy and land reform to Mexico.
