Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and little 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
Tailor-made for anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and anyone with a complicated family (so, everyone). The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Fans of Victor/Victoria or Midnight in Paris should feel right at home. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Light on its feet, at 1 hr 39 min.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1955: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.

Two Broadway showgirls, who are also sisters, are sick and tired of New York as well as not getting nowhere. Quitting Broadway, the sisters decided to travel to Paris to become famous.
