“A brightly entertaining blend of humor and heartbreak” –Rolling Stone

Celebrate Arkadin’s Hanksgiving with a film written by, directed by and co-starring the one-and only Tom Hanks. THAT THING YOU DO! is a high-energy comedy about fame and friendship which remains a beloved classic of ’60s nostalgia. Hanks plays the big-hearted manager of a 1960s pop-rock group called the Wonders (formerly, the Oneders) who become an overnight sensation thanks to a catchy chart-topping earworm. Written by the late great Adam Schlesinger of Fountains of Wayne, “That Thing You Do” (the song) was nominated for an Academy Award and became a gold-selling radio hit in real life. The movie perfectly matches the breezy, wistful tone of the tune and goes down like a soothing digestif after the food-and-family overload of Thanksgiving.

Screening as part of Arkadin’s November-long series, MUSICAL COMEDIES BUT NOT “MUSICAL COMEDIES” — you know, comedies with lots of music but not really musicals. You get us?

This film is also screening as part of Arkadin’s Hanksgiving potluck celebration, with King of The Hill and That Thing You Do! Later in the evening, Hanksgiving turns to Shanksgiving with killer-turkey classic ThanksKilling!
