Last week, I saw “That Thing You Do!” on one of the cable movie channels. I had not seen it for a while and had a couple of hours staring me down, so I sat back and watched it. The film itself is a nice piece of work by Mr. Hanks. He did himself proud. And that song! What a catchy, get-under-your-skin-in-your-brain pop tune!

Then, two days later, I was in Best Buy (humming That Thing You Do, by the way) and this new edition DVD appears before me unexpectedly, on sale. Without thinking, I bought it, took it home and I have watched it three times since (the theatrical release, once and the extended version, twice) and I will watch many times more.
This new release of That Thing You Do! underscores why “The Director’s Cut” genre in DVD releases has become so invaluable to film aficionados like myself.

The theatrical version is priceless (still), but the “Director’s Cut” is incredible and a major revelation. So many gaps in the plot have been filled in (gaps that I wasn’t even aware of, so well put-together was the original version). This newer version has made the film a mini-masterpiece.
As in the original, the cast is excellent, the plot is believable and charming, the performances are funny, vibrant, true-to-life, and in this version, quite poignant.
Charlize Theron’s character, Tina, and her relationship with Guy, in particular, suddenly become crucial elements to the early plot development (she is a minor character in the original version). Her character is fleshed-out, and she has one HYSTERICAL scene (in the dentist’s chair) that caught me so off-guard with its humour, that I nearly choked to death with laughter!!
Even Tom Hanks character as the group’s manager, Mr. White, becomes more developed and there is an interesting scene and dialogue when the group is in Los Angeles at “the same hotel Lucy and Ricky stayed at” between Guy (who is gently drunk), Mr. White and a guy named Lloyd.
Even The Bass Player (the Wonder’s bass player who is never given a name), played by the adorable Ethan Embry, has a scene or two not in the original film that adds to the sweetness of his character (as well as some sly sexiness).
Liv Tyler’s role as Jimmy’s girlfriend, Faye, becomes even more developed and she is such a marvelous actress in this film. She really is the heart and soul of the movie, and the newer version only adds to her wonderful mystique in this film.
And of course, Steve Zahn as Lenny, is still as funny as ever and is the one band member who has no fear to “push the envelope” and rider the roller-coaster of success to wherever it takes them.
I recommend this new version of “That Thing You Do!” whole-heartedly. Whether it is the original or the extended-cut, it is a lively, spirited, upbeat and thoroughly delightful viewing experience.
And, I am STILL humming “That Thing You Do!”
This is a delightful movie, probably unlike any you’ve ever seen. All the characters are so well balanced and adorable, and their story is so well told that it makes you feel it’s a true story about real people. It’s refreshing, sweet, entertaining and charming.
A group of friends puts together a music band and they record a song. The song gets on the radio and quickly climbs the music charts, making them an overnight success. Their unexpected and speedily growing fame puts their relationships, as well as individual integrity and self-respect, to the test. Troubles arise, and with them the characters show their true natures, good and bad, making their musical career as a rock group as brief and ephemeral as lightning.
But despite the obstacles the characters face, a few good things derive from them, new relationships are formed, old ones are strengthened, and all the characters make the choices that allow them to successfully follow their dreams after having lived through a life-changing, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The score of the film is great and the songs are true to the style and the music of the sixties, which is the period in which the movie takes place. The clothing and sets are accurate and the characters are wonderfully adapted to the fads of the time. The writing, plot and dialogues are superbly well done (by Tom Hanks) and makes each and every character come alive, even those with just a few minutes of screen time. The cast is exquisitely chosen, including Tom Everett Scott, Liv Tyler and Tom Hanks, and their performances are natural and enjoyable.
This movie is a delight to watch time and again; each time you’ll discover new details from the richly layered, yet realistic and simple personality of each character. A must-buy for anyone who likes a movie that tells a high-quality story through the eyes of interesting and refreshing characters.
