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
- Tailor-made for anyone who remembers how big everything felt at sixteen and anyone in the mood for a love story. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young. Liked Welcome to the Dollhouse or Rushmore? This is a good next one.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Quick and easy-going, at 1 hr 27 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1973: an older pace and style.
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
This episodic film is a close relative of Wolf Hartwig's schoolgirl report movies, made by the same people, in a similar style, around similar topics. However, this one specifically focuses on the coming-of-age aspects, to an extent that it also touches on delicate issues such as paedophilia.
