Monday Mornings @ Wikipedia
Monday Mornings @ IMDb

“Monday Mornings” are conferences within the Chelsea General Hospital and these conferences are about all the things that went wrong. Malpractices, patient deaths and social misbehaviour. But it also shows parts of the private life of the doctors working there and their different approaches to their chosen profession.

Monday Mornings was developed by David E. Kelley who’s more known as a developer of law(yer) shows just as Ally McBeal or Boston Legal. And in the end this show is not so different, because the MM conferences are basically the closing arguments of a trial where everyone explains their point of view of what went wrong.

Deutsche Version

Today it get’s a bit bloody.

Reservoir Dogs

Harvey Keitel … Mr. White / Larry Dimmick
Tim Roth … Mr. Orange / Freddy Newandyke
Michael Madsen … Mr. Blonde / Vic Vega
Chris Penn … Nice Guy Eddie Cabot
Steve Buscemi … Mr. Pink
Lawrence Tierney … Joe Cabot
Randy Brooks … Holdaway
Kirk Baltz … Marvin Nash
Edward Bunker … Mr. Blue
Quentin Tarantino … Mr. Brown

2 men return from a robbery that went bad, one of them badly wounded. In the course of time others also come back and they try to figure out what went wrong and why – that means, as long as they aren’t busy with threats of killing one another.

My opinion:
Tarantino movies are never shown in the order of the events that have taken place, this one’s no different. This one starts at the beginning of the second quarter, jumps to the third quarter and then fills the gaps of the first, second and fourth quarter. Of course one has to like Tarantino’s way of spilling blood or else one wouldn’t like this movie.
