2007 Best
Thank You for the Music!
The musical is going to be a movie! |

Filming in Kastani Beach,
photo sent me by mail; thank you,
Kathy in the UK!

This is the plot;
18 year old Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) has a problem. Its almost
her wedding day and she doesn't know who her father is. It could
be any of her mothers (Meryl Streep) past suitors: Sam (Pierce
Brosnan), Bill (Stellan
Skarsgård) or
Harry (Collin Firth). The only way for her to find out is to
invite all three to her wedding to see what happens!
Plottet er;
18 år gamle Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) har et problem. Det er
nesten hennes bryllupsdag og hun vet ikke hvem som er hennes
far. Det kan være en av hennes mors beilere; Sam (Pierce
Brosnan), Bill (Stellan Skarsgård) or Harry (Collin Firth).
Den eneste måten å finne ut av dette, er å invitere alle 3
til bryllupet og se hva som hender!

Her var det liv!
Meste av september 2007
hadde vi sellebert besøk at film-crewet, og i midten av juli
2008, - håper vi - kan alle få se filmen Mamma Mia!
Det blir lenge å vente!
Det var morsomt å se hvordan
de store stjerner gikk rundt i våre gater og koste seg! Hvor var
livvaktene?
Noen av de som var her var;
Meryl Streep & datter,
Amanda Seyfried,
Julie Walters,
Pierce Brosnan & familie,
Tom Hanks & frue,
Colin Firth,
Abba guttene og
Stellan Skarsgård.
De filmet flere steder på
vår
deilige Ø, bl.a.;
Agnondas og Amaraondas,
Kastani - "min" strand,
Nissi - halvøye opp fra Glisteri,
og bryllupet foregikk på Agios Ioannis, den fantastiske lille
kirken på toppen av "sukkertoppen"!
De filmet også på
Skiathos
og Pelion.

Lots of live here!
Most of September 2007 we
had celebrity visits of the film-crew, and in the midst of July
2008 - we hope - all can view the movie Mamma Mia!

the bodyguards?
Some of the actors were;
Meryl Streep & daughter,
Amanda Seyfried,
Julie Walters,
Pierce Brosnan & family,
Tom Hanks & wife,

They were filming in many places
on our lovely island, amongst them;
Agnondas & Amarondas,
Kastani "my" beach,
Nissi, the half peninsular up from Glisteri and the wedding was at
the fantastic cliff church; Agios Ioannis!
They also filmed at
Skiathos

Mitt beste foto!
My best photo! |
Det
var litt usikkert om Bjørn Ulvaeus (ABBA) var her, men her
er mitt beviset! Foto tatt på OuzoBaren tirsdag 18.
september 2007!
Bjørn ser ut som en guttunge, han er 62! Er ikke hans lille
datterdatter, Tilda 7, herlig?
Hun ligner på sin bestepappa og bestemor Agneta! |
It
was a bit uncertain if Bjørn Ulvaeus (ABBA) was here, but I
got the proof! Photo taken on Tuesday the 18th of September
2007 at International Cafe! Bjørn looks like a young boy!
Isn't his little grandchild, Tilda 7, cute? She looks
like her grand-daddy and grand-mother Agneta! |

Det er ikke ofte jeg bruker
et foto som ikke er mitt, men dette kunne jeg ikke stå for! Norske
Markus
var på ferie på Skopelos og han var så heldig at han fikk
tatt bilde av seg selv med Pierce Brosnan, - med sitt eget
kamera! Gjett om jeg er missunnelig?
Men jeg under Markus det! Mr.
Brosnan spurte Markus hvor han var fra og en del mer! Hvilken
dag!
Hørte at mr. Brosnan lot seg avbilde med flere av den yngere
garden, flott gjort!
|
Not often I use a photo that
is not mine, but I could not resist this one!
Norwegian Markus was on holiday on
Skopelos and he was so lucky that it was taken a photo of him
and Pierce Brosnan, - with his own camera!
I was a bit jealous!
But I am so happy for Markus!
Mr. Brosnan asked Markus where
he is from and more!
What a big day!
I heard that Mr. Brosnan was
very nice to many of the younger generation!

Pierce
Brosnan, one of my favorite actors, said to the BBC News,
about the Mamma Mia Production in Greece;
"What a kick in the pants, to be able
to go off and spend time with Meryl on some Greek island,
singing Abba songs."

"I left school at
15 feeling fairly useless and not really up to scratch in my
education. And I still suffer sometimes from that lack of
education. As an actor, I've got by, I've had employment, I've
had the good fortune to be able to work and I just feel blessed.
But I do feel I have some bit of talent to create a character or
move people, or entertain an audience, and that is very
gratifying.” Pierce
Brosnan

“The
object of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves
throughout their lives.”
Robert M. Hutchins

“Acting allows me to
explore new worlds, to discover characters by delving into their
lives, and ultimately to become someone else entirely.”
