THREE DADS AND ONE MOM, MAMMA MIA!

UNEDITED SAMPLE FEATURE ARTICLE
BY Jessica Leal Manalili
IV-Albert Einstein


Mamma Mia is an adaptation of the book Mamma Mia by British playwright Catherine Johnson and the songs of ABBA. It has been turned into a movie and a stage musical, acquiring various awards and nominations in various parts of the globe.

Watching Mamma Mia is an experience worth remembering. With its fast-paced but comprehensible story, one can't help but be mesmerized. Its musical quality made it all the more unique and artistically superb. Scene after scene, you'll get captured and drawn into the story. Sophie's dream of discovering herself happened through her reckless actions and thoughtless decisions. Her mother, Donna, was the one who suffered but in the end everything got settled or rather, unsettled. A whirlwind story of love, hilarious antics, forgiving and acceptance, Mamma Mia is a masterpiece. Praise for all the cast and crew that made this movie possible.

After watching Mamma Mia, I have been lost in thought, relating Sophie's situation to mine. Though with differences, it is somehow parallel. But hers had a happy ending and I just wish that mine will, too.

Watch Mamma Mia! It's a film you shouldn't miss!
