ABOUT MAMMA MIA!
2008 | DCP | USA | D: Phyllida Lloyd
Closed Captions and Audio Description available

A young bride dreams of asking her dad to walk her down the aisle, but there are three contenders to choose from.

Though the movie is packed with Hollywood stars (Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried, Colin Firth), it’s the twenty ABBA songs that steal the show in this delightfully silly and romantic romp in the sun.

‘Mamma Mia! isn’t a movie – it’s a holiday. It’s a film so divorced from subtext and intricacy that its only ask for viewers is to bask in the Greek sunshine as the sounds of ABBA wash over them.’ – The Guardian
