A bright and infectious tribute to one-hit wonders and the golden age of pop music, That Thing You Do! follows a small-town band that rockets from obscurity to stardom after recording an irresistibly catchy song. Written and directed by Tom Hanks and starring Tom Everett Scott, Liv Tyler, and Johnathon Schaech, the film captures the excitement, pressure, and fleeting magic of sudden fame.
Charming, energetic, and endlessly rewatchable, this feel-good classic is a perfect VHS pick for music lovers, nostalgia seekers, and anyone who still hums along when the song kicks in.
