that thing you do!

That Thing You Do! is the name of a 1996 film, written by, directed by and starring Tom Hanks. The movie tells the story of a fictional one-hit wonder rock band's rise to near fame on the heels of the British Invasion in the early 1960s. From local clubs and dances, to a major national tour and a record contract. The fictional band was called The Oneders (pronounced "wonders", the name combining "one" and "wonder"). Because no one knew how to pronounce it correctly, the band name was changed eventually to "The Wonders". The band members are Tom Everett Scott as "Guy Patterson", Johnathon Schaech as "Jimmy Mattingly", Steve Zahn as "Lenny Haise" and Ethan Embry as "The Bass Player". The film also features Liv Tyler as "Faye Dolan", Charlize Theron as "Tina", Rita Wilson as "Marguerite", musician Chris Isaak as "Uncle Bob" and Hanks himself as "Mr. White", the band's manager. The movie featured original music by Hanks, Rick Elias, Adam Schlesinger and Howard Shore.
