Trivia
The writer/director P.J. Hogan wanted to use the music of ABBA in the film. At first, permission for the music to be used was denied. When the director promised to fly to Europe to plead his case to the founders of the band, permission was granted, as long as the band received a percentage of the film profits. The film turned out to be a big international hit, and thus helped inspire the very successful Broadway show which became the movie Mamma Mia!. See more »Goofs
Continuity: When Rhonda looks at Tania's wedding ring, she holds Tania's hand with two hands, then one in the next shot. See more »Soundtracks
