Mama Mia movie (2008). Director: Rebecca Murray.
I absolutely adore Meryl Steep and love all of her movies. Mama Mia is a superb musical, light-hearted, quite enjoyable movie, directed by Phyllida Lloyd.
Have you seen the it? Did you liked it?
This film is just sheer fun and as I love all of the songs by Abba, Mama Mia song has definitely become my daily music dose lately.
The other day I saw an excellent movie, Julie & Julia, with Meryl Streep, Amy Adams and Stanley Tucci. This is a comedy-drama film written and directed by Nora Ephron. The film is based on two true stories.
Meryl Streep's performance as Julia Child is absolutely astonishing! I really loved that funny, brilliant, smart, spicy, passionate character. Meryl Streep at her best! Food, recipes, butter, and a lot of cooking skills.
This movie is also about...yeah, blogging, and perspicaciously proves dreams do come true, but alas, our excessive devotion to it might lead to uncontrolled situations. I unreservedly love the moral of this movie.
Read on here and here . This is insanely delightful! I'm sure you'll enjoy this movie as much as I did.
My sweets, have a wonderful week! xx

So are you looking forward to the new movie with her and Alex Baldwin too?
Hmmmm sounds like Mama Mia is worth watching for.
I like Meryl Streep and I love the Abba songs too.
Have a nice day.

It's complicated looks like great fun, I'm a Nancy Meyer fan, something's gotta give was a great flick.
I LOVED Mamma Mia!!! I sung along, laughed, cried, and watched it over and over again!!!
I Love Meryl, and cant wait to see Julie nad Julia!
I will admit I am not a huge Meryl Streep fan but she has been in a few great movies.
I do think the new movie with Alec Baldwin looks good and I would like to see Julie and Julia.. thanks for the recommendation
I've got to see Julie & Julia ... I've heard such good things about that movie. I hardly ever make it to the theatre, but looks like a great girls night rental!
I love Meryl Streep, too! I loved Mama Mia, I loved HER in it. She is a great actress!
I had read the book Julie and Julia when it first came out a few years ago and was anxious to see the movie. I thought they did a great job by combining the two stories. Of course, Meryl did a WONDERFUL job portraying Julia Child, and Amy Adams was so cute, too. I really enjoyed the blogging part of the movie. How happy are we when we receive comments, right? LOL!
The movie comes out on DVD December 8th. It's on my Christmas list!
Meryl Streep in anything is good.
The one whitewater rafting was my favorite ever. I love Abba songs.
Secretia
Haven't watched it yet. It may take some time.
Not gaga Meryll, but loved her in The Devil Wears Prada. I did enjoy her in Mama Mia, too. But did not enjoy Pierce Brosnan's singing. Perhaps because I had the stage guy in my head. But I did happen to go to the theater when it played the sing-a-long version and I managed to chime in! Will have to check out Julie and Julia. I thought it looked great.
I haven't seen either one of those but they are on my Netflix list. If I can get my kids to stop putting every Scooby Doo movie first, maybe I will get to see them before New Years.
I have Julia and Julie on my wish list too. Loved Mama Mia and just love ABBA. Meryl has given us mature lady's a lot to live up to.

I loved "Mamma Mia." Such a fun soundtrack.
I've seen Mama Mia numerous times- once in the theater and then every time it comes on the movie channel here! I never get tired of it. Julie and Julia is on my list to buy for at home DVD's!
I loved Julie and Julia....Mama Mia? Hmmm...not so much. I think the horrible singing by Pierce Brosnan did me in. lol!
I *heart* Meryl. Out of Africa remains my all time favorite movie of hers!
They say that she actually did the split! Can you believe it? Just for that you have to tip your hat to that lady.
Greetings from London.
Καλημέρα Βetty.
Καλώς σε βρήκα. Πολύ ενδιαφέρον το blog σου. Την ταινία Julie and Julia την είδα και μου άρεσε. Η Μέρυλ Στριπ όπως πάντα ήταν καταπληκτική!
Χάρηκα για τη γνωριμία.
Σου εύχομαι μια υπέροχη εβδομάδα :))
I also enjoyed both movies but Julyand Julia more. I loved the rhythm of the story, the cooking topic, the writing topic. I have studied in Paris as well so I feel I belong to that city. But I must confess that when I went back home, after the movie, I was a little depressed too...
είναι υπέροχες !! και οι ταινίες της και η Μέριλ. Είδα προσφατα το Julia & Julie και ήταν πολύ καλό.
φιλια πολλά
I love Mamma Mia too - it is my comfort food film

Corrie, Yes, I am looking forward to the new movie with Alec Baldwin!
VLogic, I bet you will enjoy it.
Melinda, the blogging part of the movie is fantastic!
Pat, It's so fun receiving comments. I agree with you.
Shi ramesh, Pleased to see you!Thanks.
Kys, I am sure you'll enjoy the movie.
Alice, Nice to see you!. How are you doing? Well, I didn't enjoy Pierce Brosnan's singing either.
I loved Devil wears Prada, too.
QMM, Nice to see you!.Thanks for passing by.
Michael Rivers, love the soundtrack
too. Pleased to see you!
Yael, you're going to love the film.
Cheri, Out of Africa was splendid.
Thanks for mentioning.
Cuban, How are you doing? Well said. Thank you so much.
Lorenza, you may blame the uncontrlled blogging devotion i think. You are very welcome here!
Note, Julie&julia comes out on DVD December 8th. Thanks Pat for the info.
xoxoxo
Oh, i saw Julie & Julia 2 days ago. Love it! I agree it is a great movie. I don't remember any Merryl Streep movie I didn't like :)
I loved Mamma Mia and haven't seen Julie and Julia yet but it's on my list!
it sounds worth to watch
loves and hugs
Love Mama Mia! I watched it with reservation and lack of other things to watch. Boy I'm glad I did! Its so great and catchy! This post makes me want to watch it again! hehe
Is Julie and Julia out on dvd yet? I want to get it!
I love Meryl too and can't wait to see the Julie Julia movie.
I couldn't agree more. Mama Mia is an amazing film. I never knew quite what people meant by a 'feel good' film until I saw this. The first time I'd been in a full picture-house for a long, long time - everyone was singing along.
-->I like Meryl too but didn't think I would like either Mamma Mia or the Julia Child movies. hmmm...

Meryl Streep is my most favorite actress. She is so REAL...I can't tell you how many times I have watched Mama Mia.
I love Meryl Streep, loved "Mamma Mia" and loved "Julie and Julia". How could you not? And here's to geekdom: I love Abba, too! Now I've said it, and I feel good. Have a great week, Betty!
Nevine
I liked very much the movies "Mamma mia" and "the devil wears Prada" that Meril Strip was the main actor.I believe that Meril Strip is very talented!
Blue Violet, Julie & Julia comes out on DVD ,December 8th!
xo
oh I really want to see both of those movies... I have Mamma Mia DVR'd .. I just need to watch it
are you looking forward to the one with Meryl and Alec Baldwin? that looks good.. I just don't know the name of it
I loved Mama Mia. I listen to the soundtrack all the time. Meryl Streep is an awesome actress.
I LOVE Meryl! Although I don't think she was the best fit for Mama Mia, I thought she really captured Julia!!
I totally agree. Mama Mia and Julie/ Julia made me love Meryl.
Hello. I've yet to see either of those movies. I will see J&j eventually, as I love both Julia Child and Meryl Streep.
Julie and Julia is the reason I started blogging. I had thought about it for a while but I always told myself I couldn't. After I saw the movie, I thought "what the heck" and I started writing. It's a great movie.
I, too, love the Streep. She can do no wrong in my world whether singing ABBA or flying over Africa with Robert Redford. As an actress, she was my chief inspiration (Emma Thompson is a close second!)
I too love Maryl Streep, I think she is an amazing actress who plays each part to the fullest!
Smooches,
Sassy Chica
loved her in Julie&Julia
everyone tells me to see julie and julia!
Oh and thanks for the birthday wishes!
Thank you for enjoying kanjis.

Meryl Streep is one of MY favs too...I noticed 'Secretia' said she loved her in the rafting movie "The River Wild" and that was filmed between Troy and Libby, MT not far from where I lived in Idaho on the Kootenai River well it was also filmed on the Flathead and Rogue Rivers (Medford, OR). Anyway...Meryl in ANYTHING is good:-)
OH HOW I AM DYING TO SEE JULIE JULIA!!!!!!
Meryl is the bomb.
OH HOW I AM DYING TO SEE JULIE JULIA!!!!!!
Meryl is the bomb.
I love mama mia...meryl just rocks, and throw in abba music, well im in heaven....and julie and julia was the movie that inspired me to start blogging;)
as always betty I enjoy your blog
I love Meryl Steep also. Those two movies were awesome!
I have to watch Mama Mia after reading this blog.. My list of to dos is ever growing after I joined you ...LOL
What is there not to love about Meryl? She is perfection at every stage.
I have yet to purchase the DVD of Julia Child, as I have a small collection of films dealing with food, but I concur with you about Meryl Streep, whom I also greatly admire.
I did not see the musical, as I for one do not find this type of film or entertainment my kind of cup of tea.
However give me an eighteenth century drama, I am glued to the screen!
The name escapes me, sorry , but the British female writer of Pride and Prejudice, those films I love.
Wishing you all the best,
Egmont
I agree that Meryl is an amazing actress. I LOVED J&J because it is about Blogging and Food!
If you look up old Julia child videos on you tube you can see what an amazing job Meryl did of portraying her!
hey Betty..thanks for coming by my blogs.. my active one is www.reanaclaire.com
like u, i love this mama mia very much..in fact i watched it 2 times and i hv the songs too.. this show was really entertaining! from starting to ending, i feel so absorbed in the show that i started to sing with them as well.. hahaa...
Merryl streep is one of the best If not the best actress from U.S.A
SHE´S SO TALENTED IT´S SCARY.
OHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MY AWARD! I totally misunderstood and grabbed the wrong one:-) DUHHHH
You totally made my day by the way, it was a hellatious week last week!
Cheers!

I love, love, love, love, love,love, love, love, love, love, Mama Mia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Again and again!
I loved Meryl Streep and Amy Adams in that movie. Did you read the book, too? I also just bought "My Life In France," and can't wait to get started!
Erin, I haven't read the book. I think i should.
I've been told that there are old Julia Child videos on You Tube and they are great, if you'd like to see. Sooo nice to meet you.
xoxo
I have to see both movies still. I know, I am behind. We actually watch movies every weekend but these are more for me than hubs so...
I can't believe I haven't seen that flick. My Mom saw it and loved it. As a blogger, I gotta see it too!
Here is a good one!
