That Thing You Do! is a delightful movie released in 1996 that will transport you back to the golden era of rock and roll. Directed by Tom Hanks, who also wrote the screenplay, this film captures the excitement and energy of one-hit wonders on their journey to fame.

The story revolves around a fictional band called The Wonders, who come together in small-town Erie, Pennsylvania in the 1960s.

Player. Tom Everett Scott portrays the energetic and optimistic drummer, Guy "Shades" Patterson. Johnathon Schaech embodies the charismatic lead singer, Jimmy Mattingly II. Rounding out the band lineup is Ethan Embry as the talented yet rebellious guitarist, Lenny Haise.

The film not only explores the highs and lows of the band's short-lived success but also delves into the relationships and dynamics between its members. They experience the excitement of touring, recording their first album, and even making a television appearance. However, the pressures of the industry and personal conflicts begin to strain their bond.

As you watch That Thing You Do!, you'll instantly feel transported to the swinging sixties, thanks to the film's authentic period details. The costumes, hairstyles, and set design perfectly capture the essence of the era, immersing you in the nostalgic atmosphere.

Additionally, the film boasts a fantastic soundtrack, filled with catchy tunes that will have you tapping your feet and singing along. The title track, "That Thing You Do!", will undoubtedly get stuck in your head with its infectious melody and catchy lyrics.

Ultimately, That Thing You Do! is a heartwarming and entertaining film that celebrates the joy and ephemeral nature of success.

I'm from Erie, P.A.
I'm getting the crown replaced on my number 15 molar.
I'm going home. I have my first appointment with my new dentist in the morning.
I'm gone.
I'm gonna have to do some stuff.
I'm gonna make a fortune off you.
I'm gonna see my boyfriend's music group.
I'm Guy Patterson. I'm from Erie, Pennsylvania.
I'm in a band called The Wonders,
I'm in love, Skitch! Freakin' stars in my head.
I'm just tagging along and I'm nervous.
I'm kinda drunk.
I'm off duty. Are you happy?
I'm okay. But it's gonna be a sad hotel if you leaving us today.
I'm really sorry, Mr. White.
I'm reluctant to sign anything that has to do with my music.
I'm sorry I'm bugging you.
I'm sorry.
I'm stooping to subterfuge for you guys.
I'm sure you do,
I'm the secretary with the asshole.
I'm U Thant.
I'm, uh, the drummer with the Oneders.
I'm... going... home.
I've dragged you into hell. I'm sorry.
I've never really been to one of these things before.
I've played a lot of cards.
If he likes what he hears,
If he met Gus Grissom?
If I don't get this record going
If I have worked the phones correctly
If she spills it, it ain't her butt in the ringer.
If that's a pick up line, we're a match made in heaven.
If the big one happens, we're gonna be okay...
If the crowd doesn't go wild for you,
If we become number one,
If we're gonna shake, bake, and make
If you ever come back to Erie,
If you hadn't joined the band.
If you want a picture of me in my official Dodge Boys Rally Team windbreaker...
If you want these magic hands, you gotta buy two new record needles.
IfJimmy's a genius...
In Columbus as soon as possible.
In simple terms, he's done nothing for us.
In so long, so I was nervous.
In the bathroom.
In the history of the Play Tone label.
In the what is it the Gemini?
In your latest movie
Ira Sullivan. Kenny Durham. John Young.
Is a lot like your working with Gina Lollobrigida
Is it always this smoky?
Is it good business to let these things stand in the way...
Is it serious, do you know?
Is that a girl hanging from the parachute?
Is that music playing on one of the store hi fi's?
Is that Skitch Patterson?
Is that The Corvettes or The "Chordvettes"?
Is the trio going on again?
Is to make more records.
Isn't he here?
Isn't it about time you got goin'?
It could be that we're missing it, so... Christmas in July.
It doesn't work.
It is jammed jammed with kids.

It's 14.95 on sale.
It's a ballad!
It's a hit record.
It's a standard management contract. Says if I do my job, you guys make money.
It's a very common tale.
It's a very common tale.
It's about time you noticed, Rick.
It's all right!
It's an up tempo number.
It's black, got a hole in it. It's got grooves. It's a Play Tone record.
It's cold in here, isn't it?
It's confusing.
It's for our encore.
It's gonna be hilarious.
It's Guy Patterson ofThe Wonders. Do you remember me?
It's It's gonna take, like, all day tomorrow with the dentist.
It's just for tonight.
It's like I could hear the beat in my head, you know.
It's not 10:00 yet.
It's nothing you can't handle.
It's our first record. We wrote it in my garage in Erie, Pennsylvania.
It's out of this world.
It's pretty good, Troy.
It's starting! Get in here!
It's starting! It's starting!
It's The Hollywood Television Showcase!

Not too early in the day for one of these, I hope.
Nothing.
Now how many times do I have to say, no milk in the coffee?
Now I found that a hit record is like a stew.
Now look out at the ocean.
Now take a look at that. That is a thing of beauty.
Now, I don't pay much. Have you ever done radio?
Now, next up for you kids...
