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
One for sports fans (and people who swear they aren't) and anyone who values honest, human stories. You don't need to know the game to feel the big moments. Same wavelength as Monster or Hard Eight. It deals with hard things honestly.
The mood
Dark and gritty.
The pace
Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 10 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1936: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Young girls are cheated into rigged gambling games and then forced into prostitution to pay off their debts.
