USA/Germany
Feature Film
Director: Phyllida Lloyd
Writer: Catherine Johnson
Cinematographer: Haris Zambarloukos
Composer: Benny Andersson
Cast: Meryl Streep, Amanda Seyfried, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, Julie Walters, Christine Baranski, Dominic Cooper
With a cast (more annoyingly perky than a room full of children’s TV presenters on amphetamines) running around singing ABBA songs against the backdrop of a sun-drenched Greek island, Lloyd’s Mamma Mia! is a typical feel-good film, i.e. totally depressing - for genuine ABBA infused feel-goodery, see Lukas Moodysson's Together (2000).
