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: Made for people who'll be humming afterwards and anyone who likes wide open spaces and slow-burning standoffs. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Liked Cabaret or The Muppet Christmas Carol? This is a good next one. Dust, horses and a showdown waiting to happen.
The mood: Exciting.
The pace: Moves at a clip, at 57 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off: Made in 1936: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.

Gene and Frog set out to find out who has been causing the accidents at a dam construction site.
