The Geneology gets complex but hang on. Mamma Mia ( which means of course, My Mother!) as a Play- was based in part on the movie Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell- which starred Gina Lollobrigida and three men each claiming to be the father of her illegitimate war-born child. The three men were Peter Lawford ( English or Canadian Officer), Phil Silvers ( Sgt.Bilko ) and Telly Savalas who may have been a Russian Commissar. All ETO personnel! It is rumored that Yul Brynner was offered the role but ditched it. It was not revealed in the film who the putative daddy was.- so we have the play with music by ABBA which is a Swedish Rock Group- from there to film, I said it"s a bit complex. None of the actors mentioned appears in either the play or the film.
