Of course there are two movies in which ABBA's music is central. Abba: The Movie (1977), one of the first films directed by Lasse Hallstrom, is based on the band's Australian tour that year. And Mamma Mia! (2008) is based on the stage play inspired by Abba's music.
Beyond that there are two important cult films in which Abba's music is important. Muriel's Wedding (1994) features five Abba tracks. (The lead character dreams that her life can be just as perfect as an Abba song.) And The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, about a couple of drag queens on a cross-Australia odyssey, features the song "Mamma Mia" as its finale. Both films are credited as helping to revive Abba's popularity in the 90s.
Abba songs have been featured in the soundtracks of several other films, notably "Does Your Mother Know" in Johnny English(2003); "Take a Chance on Me" in Get Smart (2008) and "Dancing Queen" in I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007).
