...when you watch the movie. Ah, to be 16 and to have music mean everything again. That Thing You Do! is perhaps the best movie made about one-hit wonders, and it has one of my favorite break-up moments in a movie. Liv Tyler (as Faye) to Jonathon Schaech (as Jimmy): "I have wasted thousands and thousands of kisses on you.... Shame on me for kissing you with my eyes closed so tight...

Schaech's non-essential role in the movie is not a triumph for women everywhere--it's more of a slap in the face. Can women only shine in their protracted pursuit of the male species, courting their love even if they gave birth to them? Disturbing, to say the least...
