From Mia to You
A week or so ago, I posted a video of Hugh Grant making a speech to help honor screenwriter and director Richard Curtis at the Motion Picture ceremony presenting him with an honorary Oscar. In his speech, Grant noted that Curtis was one of he founders of Comic Relief and its off-shoot Red Nose Day – which makes this video all the more pointed, since it comes from the 2010 Comic Relief.
This is a 12-minute film that’s a parody of the movie Mamma Mia, starring Jennifer Saunders playing Meryl Streep. And it features a wonderful cast, including Sienna Miller as ‘Amanda Seyfried,’ Dawn French as “Julie Walter,” British comedian Alan Carr as ‘Colin Firth’ and Joanna Lumley recreating her role of ‘Patsy’ from Absolutely Fabulous (for no apparent reason). The whole thing is utterly loony and a lot of fun.
