That Thing You Do!	comment	That Thing You Do! is a 1996 comedy movie written and directed by Tom Hanks, who also appears in a starring role.The story is set in 1964 in Erie, Pennsylvania, not long after The British Invasion. Reluctant appliance salesman / fervent amateur jazz drummer Guy "Skitch" Patterson (Tom Everett Scott) is drafted into a garage band formed by friends Jimmy Mattingly (Johnathon Schaech) and Lenny Haise (Steve Zahn), as a one-time favor — their original drummer broke his arm the day of the big local talent competition, and they need a replacement.Naming themselves the 'Oneders' (as in One-ders) on the sound-for-the-time logic that a Punny Name worked for The Beatles, the band intends to perform a slow ballad written by Jimmy and Lenny called "That Thing You Do". The night of the comp, however, Guy leads them off at a much faster tempo than they'd rehearsed, giving them no choice but to transform it into a snappy pop number. Auteur Jimmy is upset, but the crowd is seen dancing in the aisles, and they win the talent show.The new version takes off, earning them a gig at "the spaghetti place out by the airport" and inspiring them to make a record to sell at the door. Eventually, this attracts the attention of a local talent scout, who in turn introduces them to Mr. White (Tom Hanks), a record company executive who thinks he can take them to the top — but only if they agree to change their name.With their record zooming up the charts, hordes of screaming fans greeting them at every stop on tour and a gig on The Hollywood Television Showcase, the sky's the limit for the newly renamed Wonders... until they start trying to cope with success... and Guy develops a not-unreciprocated interest in Jimmy's girlfriend Faye Dolan (Liv Tyler).

However, in terms of what happens to the characters, they undergo a roller coaster rise-and-fall from obscure garage band to local celebrities to nationally famous pop band to breaking up to back to relative obscurity in what is only a couple of months at most, making it this trope from their perspective. In particular, the band has broken up literally the day after playing their big national TV gig.

That Thing You Do! / int_3126c34a	comment	Insufferable Genius: Jimmy. After he pitches a fit and storms off at lunch late in the film, Faye tries to explain away his behavior by saying his standards are very high because he tested at genius levels in high school, but by then even she's not believing it anymore. Mr. White also acknowledges he has talent, but a bad attitude for a band leader. He's the only member of the band to continue producing pop music, although Faye and Guy end up as music teachers and open their own school. It's also questionable how much the "Genius" part actually applies; while he can certainly write some good songs and clearly has musical talent, he actually has some surprisingly dodgy creative instincts (he seems obsessed with writing slow ballads, and it's fitting that the key thing that makes "That Thing You Do" a hit is Guy's contribution, not his), suggesting that he might actually just be Insufferable.

That Thing You Do! / int_6053dc28	comment	Record Producer: Phil Horace, a regional talent promoter. Although he comes off as somewhat sketchy — operating out of an R.V. and taking two weeks to get their song on the radio — he deals fairly with the band. When he realizes they've got more potential than he can cope with, he introduces them to a manager from a national label, Mr. White. Mr. White begins as the Helping Hand variety, sprucing up the band's image, getting them on a national tour, encouraging them to be more ambitious than the state fair circuit, and generally acting as a mentor as well as a promoter.

That Thing You Do! / int_60e49895	comment	The Leader: Although Jimmy founded the band, people interacting with them default to treating Guy as the leader. This is mostly because Jimmy is fussy and self-centered, while Guy is easy to deal with, sensible, and conscientious. On a more symbolic level, although he joined late, it's clear the band would never have been as successful if it wasn't for Guy, making it in some way "his" band.

That Thing You Do! / int_6b05b601	comment	Jerkass Has a Point: Jimmy is a self-centered and self-important jerk, but the politics and marketing-driven studio system (the head of the company hasn't even listened to the band "he" signed and Mr. White's refusal to let him record the kind of songs he actually wants to play) is pretty frustrating for someone who went into it solely for the music. His next band, "The Heardsmen", sign a record contract with the same company, Play-Tone. One has to wonder if an older and wiser Jimmy paid close attention to the contract before signing, and knew what to expect. He also found a band name that had the same homonym wordplay as The Beatles, but wasn't confusing like the Oneders. When Lenny asks Jimmy if he can borrow 200 bucks to go gamble with in Las Vegas, Jimmy tells him to ask Guy cause "he's a sucker". Then when Guy walks in and Lenny asks for 200 bucks, Guy gives it to him without hesitation.

On the surface, Jimmy presents himself as a "true artist" type and is the one who is most invested in the band itself; of the others, Lenny is clearly more interested in having fun and enjoying the pop-star life while it lasts, Guy is more into jazz and is not overly invested in the band itself, and the bass player seems to view it more as a hobby before he fulfills his true calling of joining the Marines. However, it's pretty telling that when you look closer, most of Jimmy's interests seem to revolve around the commercial and ego-boosting opportunities of the music industry rather than the pleasure of creating art for its own sake; he obsesses over contracts and track listings (specifically ensuring his songs are on there) and, tellingly, for all his clashes with Mr White, continues to work with the same record label with his subsequent band.

That Thing You Do! / int_c335b9ec	comment	Irony: Despite all of his bitching about the music industry, Jimmy's next band, "The Heardsmen", sign another contract with the same record label, Play-Tone Records. Jimmy is obsessed with lover's lament ballads (which becomes a major point of contention), and the title song was supposed to be one. Meanwhile, he has a loving and devoted girlfriend in Faye, who he can only describe as "sort of like my girlfriend", and it's implied he cheats on her with Diane Dane during the state fair tour. (Then again, Jimmy is probably dating Faye on the rebound, and the song is about his former girlfriend, which is why he doesn't take her seriously as a future partner.) Guy, who was the member of the band who joined last and was only supposed to be a temporary stand-in for the original drummer, ends up being the only member of the band who doesn't quit for one reason or another. The bassist is a forgettable member who leaves while the band is on tour, a couple months before his planned departure, and is replaced by a session musician without anyone missing a beat. However, the title song was, in real life, written by a bassist note Adam Schlesinger of Fountains of Wayne and puts the bassline front and center.

That Thing You Do! / int_c5249b29	comment	Nice Guy: Well... Guy. One of his first actions in the movie is paying for Faye and the band's breakfast because he dinged her car. He ensures that she's included when the band starts having success and gives her a radio shout-out when she's sick. He also refuses to make decisions about the band on his own and consults with them when both Phil and Mr. White propose signing them. Mr. White is probably the nicest record executive in the history of music. Although he is still a record exec, and he's far more concerned with keeping control and moving the product (and keeping the profits) than he is with artistic integrity. Lenny is also a pretty good-natured, fun-loving and friendly sort, albeit a bit more snarky.

That Thing You Do! / int_c75df49a	type	Shout-Out
That Thing You Do! / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Tom Hanks is a big fan of the Apollo program. Several characters have names which are references to astronaut characters in Apollo 13 (Haise, Mattingly, White), and astronaut Gus Grissom is a guest on The Hollywood Television Showcase, which is itself a Expy of The Ed Sullivan Show and Hollywood Palace. Additionally, one of the bands that plays on the soundtrack is called "The Saturn Five", while one of the bands on the Pittsburgh showcase marquee (seen in the extended cut) is Marilyn Lovell and the Geminis note Marilyn Lovell was the wife of Jim Lovell, the commander of the Apollo 13 mission . The character Del Paxton is named after Hanks's friend and Apollo 13 co-star Bill Paxton. Numerous to The Beatles and other pop music acts of the early 1960s. Guy also name-checks several jazz artists at one point. The "CAREFUL GIRLS, HE'S ENGAGED" is a direct reference to The Beatles' performance on Ed Sullivan, when John Lennon had the subtitle "SORRY GIRLS, HE'S MARRIED." Mr. White's characterization mirrors that of the Beatles' manager, Brian Epstein. In the film, Mr. White makes The Wonders wear matching suits and bow at the end of every number; Epstein did the exact same thing with the Beatles to make their act more professional. Additionally, in the Director's Cut, Mr. White is gay, a reference to Brian Epstein's homosexuality. Mr. White expecting the band to re-record "That Thing You Do!" in Spanish may be a shout out to the Beatles' re-recording of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You" in German (as "Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand" and "Sie Liebt Dich", respectively). There's a scene where Sol Siler addresses Mr. White as "Andy". Andy White was the session drummer used on the second (hit) recording of the Beatles' "Love Me Do". A Beatles allusion only the truly obsessive fans caught: There's a scene where Faye almost gets detained by security because the guards don't know she's with the band, but Guy sees what's happening and tells them to let her through. That really happened to John Lennon's first wife Cynthia once (Lennon, being who he was, didn't notice, and she ended up missing the outing as a result). Jimmy's bow-legged posture whilst playing guitar is likely a nod to Lennon's signature stance during the Beatles' touring years.

Jimmy quits the band instead, leaving Guy the only original Wonder left. note Only original member from their recording period, and the original lineup their fans would know, as Guy joined as a temporary replacement, but wound up sticking around. While he was definitely upset that he was being ordered to cover songs owned by PlayTone, and to record "That Thing You Do" in Spanish, the last straw for Jimmy was that, while by contract he was allowed one original song on each side of the LP, Mr. White wouldn't allow him to record "any of that lover's lament crap", which is implied to be what Jimmy had brought to record. Mr. White wanted additional up tempo (snappy) songs.

That Thing You Do! / int_ffad4e9f	type	Shown Their Work
That Thing You Do! / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: All the actors that make up The Wonders are actually playing their own instruments and singing, the result of months spent rehearsing as a de facto band prior to filming. (Asked about the many reps of the song throughout the movie, Tom Everett Scott pointed out that "We had to hear it a lot more than anyone else!")note While they are actually seen playing, it is not them you hear. This does add realism to the look and created a camaraderie for the actors. The film does a very good job of getting period details such as cars, clothes, and signage right. The guitars are also correct— at the start, the boys have appropriate garage-band instruments for the era note Specifically, Danelectro bass, Les Paul Junior and Silvertone guitars, and later they get equally appropriate upgrades. note Lenny plays a Fender Jaguar, and Jimmy plays a Rickenbacker 360/12. And we see a Fender Precision Bass. In the talent show performance of "That Thing You Do," where Guy springs a faster tempo on the rest of the band than they'd rehearsed, Jimmy and Lenny are believably "behind the beat" for most of the first verse (with Jimmy trying to get Guy to slow down) and don't really get in sync until halfway through the song. Additionally, the bass player plays a much simpler version of the song's bass line, and he can be seen flubbing a couple notes near the end of the song. The church recording of the song is more resonant than a normal studio recording is because of the wide-open space of the church. A "real" sound studio version would level the music. During his argument with Faye after the TV appearance, Jimmy is shown changing his guitar strings. This is a good idea for anyone planning on recording the next day (as he is) since it will give it a "fresher" sound. Casey Kasem and Dick Clark both said that "That Thing You Do!" would have been a smash hit had it been released in the '60s.note And in fact, it did do fairly well, reaching #41 on the Billboard charts along with some decent radio play, not bad for a song specifically written to sound like it was from the '60s, but released in the mid '90s. The talent show is set at Mercyhurst College, which is a very real school that still exists to this day (albeit under a different name, Mercyhurst University). In fact, it's not at all surprising that Mercyhurst would host a music talent contest, given the school's emphasis on the arts. Whether this was a lucky coincidence or a case of Tom Hanks showing his research, however...
