Viac o knihe

This thesis explores the dual nature of the film musical Mamma Mia!, questioning whether it serves as a nostalgic escape to relive the ABBA era or stands as an independent artistic creation. Through an analysis of its themes and cultural impact, the research delves into the relationship between the film and the iconic band, examining how nostalgia influences audience perception and the film's artistic merit. The study contributes to the broader discourse on musicology and the intersection of film and nostalgia.
