Meryl Streep is fantastic in Mamma Mia. She can sing and be silly without embarrassing herself or the viewer. She is attractive, sexy and cool. ABBA is in - after 35 years of un-cool.
I always liked ABBA and was not ashamed to admit it. In their simple, catchy tunes they always seemed to have a pearl of wisdom about life - a tidbit of truth that we could all relate to:
"Ive played all my cards...
nothing more to say...
the winner takes it all...
I was a fool playing by the rules...
the winner takes it all
the loser has to fall...
rules must be obeyed...
the winner takes it all... "
Seeing Meryl Streep sing that to Pierce Brosnan is just amazing, and heart-wrenching.
