Mitte der sechziger Jahre landet die Amateur-Pop-Band "The Wonders" völlig überraschend einen Superhit. Über Nacht werden die jungen Leute zu gefeierten Superstars und stehen fortan im Rampenlicht der amerikanischen Öffentlichkeit. Doch Ruhm und Ehre sind vergänglich...

Italiano
Nell'estate del 1964 Guy fa il commesso presso il negozio di elettrodomestici del padre, in Pennsylvania. Ma di notte si siede alla batteria e comincia a suonare musica jazz. Una rock band locale, cui è mancato il batterista, gli chiede di sostituirlo. Passa un mese e "The Wonders", fanno ormai parte del firmamento del rock.

Český
Je léto 1964, kluby jsou plné a do Pensylvánie právě dorazil rokenrol. Dokonce i automobily se na nerovné dlažbě kodrcají v jeho rytmu. Každý se chce přidat, každý chce být jako Beatles. Ani Guy není výjimkou. Odjakživa si přál stát se hudebníkem a teď má šanci. V místní kapele se uvolnilo místo bubeníka, které Guy díky svým schopnostem získá. Kapela odstartuje se skvělou písničkou, ze které se přes noc stane hit. Celá kapela je jako v sedmém nebi turné, fanoušci, filmové nabídky a vše ostatní, co ke slávě patří. Všichni si mysleli, že jim to vydrží navždy. Ale tak rychle jak jejich hvězda vylétla vzhůru, tak rychle i dopadla k zemi.

Português
Quando um jovem vendedor de eletrodomésticos concorda em tocar em um show de calouros no lugar do baterista machucado, nascem quatro meteóricas estrelas. Mais rápido do que você consegue dizer O Sonho Não Acabou, um executivo da Play-Tone Records contrata o grupo e os arremessa à fama, fazendo sua canção de estréia alcançar os primeiros lugares das paradas de sucesso!

Magyar
Ó, azok a csodálatos hatvanas évek! Akkor még őszinte volt a rock and roll és bárkiből egy perc alatt sztár lehetett! 1964: a Beatles meghódítja Amerikát. Az angol invázió új hangzásokat hozott az amerikai zenébe. Guy jazz-fanatikus srác, aki szülei unalmas üzletében dolgozik. Miután a környékbeli banda dobosa kéztörés miatt nem tud zenélni, Guy beugrik helyette. Újfajta ritmusai feldobják a lassú számokat és rögtön megfogják a többi srácot is. A Wonders hihetetlenül rövid időn belül garázsbandából sztárrá válik. Hamarosan a toplisták élére kerülnek és aranylemezes sztárok lesznek. Amerre csak járnak turnézni, mindenhol rengeteg lány rajong értük és sikoltozik a koncertjeiken. És ez még csak a kezdet! A folytatás azonban egy kicsit rosszabb lesz, mivel a csúcson maradni a legnehezebb...

Français
Le jour où Guy décide de jouer de la batterie dans un groupe de rock local, il est loin d'imaginer que ses amis et lui-même vont connaître une carrière fulgurante et un succès sans précédent. Un mois après avoir signé un contrat avec la maison de disques Play-Tone Records, le groupe est lancé sous le nom "The Wonders" et leur premier 45-tours atteint rapidement le sommet des hit-parade... avec toutes les conséquences que cela comporte.

Pусский
Молодой продавец магазина бытовой техники соглашается подменить получившего травму барабанщика группы на местном конкурсе молодых талантов. Это событие обернулось космическим взлетом четырех новых звезд. Быстрее, чем вы успеете произнести «то, что ты делаешь», менеджер студии грамзаписи записывает музыку ребят и в одночасье делает их знаменитыми, ибо их композиция стремительно поднялась на первую строчку хит-парадов.

Español
Guy Patterson trabaja en la tienda de electrodomésticos de su padre, pero su sueño es tocar la batería. Por casualidad se presenta a un concurso cuando un grupo de su barrio se queda sin batería. Guy imprime un nuevo ritmo a las canciones que les hace triunfar y subir a los primeros puestos de ventas con "Los Wonders".

普通话
影片讲述了六十年代一队名为“奇迹”的摇滚乐队从小镇迅速崛起成为全国知名偶像,但又有如流星般消逝的经过。组成乐队的四位年轻人之中,以沉迷爵士乐的鼓手汤姆·埃弗里特·斯科特和自我为中心的作曲歌手强纳·森萨奇的瑜亮之争的主要戏剧矛盾,清丽佳人莉芙·泰勒则扮演全力支援此乐队的热心歌迷,汤姆·汉克斯客串乐队经理人。在那个基本上社会气氛仍然相当纯洁的1964年,演出了这段一曲成名的歌坛传奇。

ελληνικά
1964, ένα χρόνο μετά που οι Beatles κατακτούν τις ΗΠΑ. Ο λάτρης της τζαζ Γκάι Πάτερσον νιώθει ασφυκτικά στο μαγαζί της οικογένειας του και δέχεται την πρόταση συνεργασίας με το γκρουπ Oneders, όταν ο ντράμερ σπάει το χέρι του. Ο Γκάι προσαρμόζει έναν ροκ ρυθμό στο συγκρότημα και οι μετονομασμένοι Wonders πετυχαίνουν την αναγνώριση.

Dansk
Da Guy siger ja til at spille trommer i det lokale rock-band The Wonders, havde han ikke drømt om det spektakulære og vanvittige eventyr han bliver kastet ud i. Næppe har chefen for Play-tone Records skrevet kontrakt med bandet, før raket-turen mod berømmelsen og stjernerne starter. The Wonders stryger ind på toppen af hitlisterne med deres sang That Thing You Do.

עִבְרִית
קומדיה שביים טום האנקס. הסרט מספר את סיפורה הבדיוני של להקת רוקנ'רול מפנסילבניה באמצע שנות השישים. בעזרת הסינגל הקליט שלהם, "הדבר הזה שאת עושה", חבורת הנערים הופכת מלהקת "גאראג'" לסנסציה כלל ארצית בתוך חודשים מעטים, אך לאחר שהגיעו לפסגה, האם יוכלו להישאר שם? עם ג'יובאני ריביסי (בייסיק), ליב טיילר (לגעת ביופי) וטום האנקס בכבודו ובעצמו בתפקיד מנהל חברת התקליטים.

български език
Лятото на 1964 година. Време на рока и на Бийтълсите. Една млада и все още никому неизвестна рокгрупа с много голяма любов към музиката се устремява към звездните си мигове на подиумите.

Português
Em 1964, logo após os Estados Unidos serem "tomados" pelos Beatles, surge em uma pequena cidade da Pensilvânia os "Oneders", mais tarde rebatizado pelo empresário como "Wonders". Porém, às vésperas de uma apresentação de calouros, o baterista do grupo quebra o braço, o que faz com que, em cima da hora, um jovem infeliz (Tom Everett Scott), que trabalhava na loja de eletrodomésticos da família, seja convidado para substituí-lo. O jovem baterista, um aficionado de jazz, imprime durante a apresentação uma batida mais ritmada no que deveria ser uma balada, causando o descontentamento do vocalista e compositor do grupo (Johnathon Schaech). Mas seu instinto funcionou e a música se torna sucesso nacional, levando o grupo aos primeiros lugares da Billboard.

한국어/조선말
가이 패터슨(Guy Patterson: 톰 에버렛 스콧)은 낮에는 아버지의 가전 제품 가게에서 일을 돕고 있지만 밤에는 드럼 연습에 몰두한다. 열심히 드럼 연주 연습을 해오던 가이에게 뜻밖의 기회가 찾아온다. 아마추어 음악인들의 음악 경연대회에 나가려던 지미(James 'Jimmy' Mattingly II: 조나단 스캐치)의 밴드가 갑자기 드럼머가 사고를 당하게 되자 가이에게 하룻밤만 연주를 부탁한다. 지미의 자작곡 "댓 씽 유 두"로 대회에 참가한 그룹 '완더스'는 음악의 분위기를 경쾌하게 살린 가이의 천부적인 감각 연주로 우승을 차지하여 하루 아침에 필라델피아를 대표하는 신세대 록그룹으로 떠오른다. 지역 음반 매니저 호래스의 소개로 완더스의 노래는 라디오 전파를 타게 되고 그들의 데뷰곡 "댓 씽 유 두"는 점차 전국적인 히트곡으로 급부상한다. 완더스의 인기가 하루가 다르게 오르자 매니저 호래스(Phil Horace: 크리스 엘리스 분)는 그들을 당대 최고의 음반 회사인 플레이톤의 음반 제작자 화이트(Mr. White: 톰 행크스 분)에게 소개한다. 화이트는 그들과 전속 계약을 맺고 그룹의 이름도 무의미한 음절의 조합이었던 완더스에서 '경이로움'이란 뜻의 '원더스'로 바꾼다. 플레이톤의 전속 가수가 되어서 전국 순회공연에 오른 원더스의 "댓 씽 유 두"는 승승장구 빌보드 챠트 10위권에 진입한다. 원더스의 인기에 편승한 플레이톤 레코드사는 그들을 방송과 영화에도 출연시킴으로써 그들을 철저히 상업적으로 이용한다. 갑작스런 성공으로 영웅주의에 빠진 지미와 레니(Lenny Haise: 스티브 잔 분)의 탈선으로 마침내 그룹은 해체되고, 가이는 인기라는 것이 물거품에 불과하다는 것을 실감하게 된다. 그러나 순수성을 잃지 않고 늘 성실하고 열심이었던 가이에게만은 또 다른 기회가 주어지고 마침내 그는 사랑도 얻고 훌륭한 드럼머로도 성공한다.

Tiếng Việt
That Thing You Do! (Đó Là Điều Em Làm) được thực hiện năm 1996 và Tom Hanks tham gia với 3 vai trò - viết kịch bản, đạo diễn và thể hiện vai chính. Mặc dù bộ phim không phải là bom tấn lớn nhưng nó cũng tạo ra cú hit khá nổi trên bảng xếp hạng pop (bài hát “That Thing You Do” viết bởi Adam Schlesinger và trình bày bởi Á thần power pop tương lai Mike Viola đã được đề cử Oscar Nhạc phim hay nhất) và nhận được nhiều lời khen như Desson Thomson của The Washington Post đã viết: “Tác phẩm đầu tay của Tom Hanks với tư cách là biên kịch/đạo diễn đã vượt trên những ý tưởng rập khuôn với tiếng trống dồn dập của thời tuổi trẻ hăng hái và là bộ phim hài kịch duyên dáng”.

On kesä 1964 ja Guy Patterson työskentelee isänsä firmassa ja haaveilee rock-tähteydestä.

Швидше, ніж ви встигнете вимовити «те, що ти робиш», менеджер студії грамзапису записує музику хлопців і відразу робить їх знаменитими, бо їх композиція стрімко піднялася на першу сходинку хіт-парадів.

Een maand nadat de band een contract getekend heeft met Play-Tone Records, worden ze gelanceerd als 'The Wonders' en bestormt hun eerste single direct alle hitlijsten.

Norsk
Året er 1964 og The Beatles har nettopp tatt hele USA med storm. Som en motvekt til "den britiske invasjon" dukker det hjemmelagde bandet The Wonders opp. Den fengende låten That Thing You Do! topper plutselig alle platebarometre, og bandmedlemmene må takle noe så vanskelig som knallsuksess.

Saving Private Ryan summary, synopsis, reviews
Saving Private RyanDrama1998

Steven Spielberg directed this powerful, realistic re-creation of WWII's D-day invasion and the immediate aftermath. The story opens with a prologue in which a veteran brings his family to the American cemetery at Normandy, and a flashback then joins Capt. John Miller (Tom Hanks) and GIs in a landing craft making the June 6, 1944, approach to Omaha Beach to face devastating German artillery fire. This mass slaughter of American soldiers is depicted in a compelling, unforgettable 24-minute sequence. Miller's men slowly move forward to finally take a concrete pillbox. On the beach littered with bodies is one with the name "Ryan" stenciled on his backpack. Army Chief of Staff Gen. George C. Marshall (Harve Presnell), learning that three Ryan brothers from the same family have all been killed in a single week, requests that the surviving brother, Pvt. James Ryan (Matt Damon), be located and brought back to the United States. Capt. Miller gets the assignment, and he chooses a translator, Cpl. Upham (Jeremy Davis), skilled in language but not in combat, to join his squad of right-hand man Sgt. Horvath (Tom Sizemore), plus privates Mellish (Adam Goldberg), Medic Wade (Giovanni Ribisi), cynical Reiben (Edward Burns) from Brooklyn, Italian-American Caparzo (Vin Diesel), and religious Southerner Jackson (Barry Pepper), an ace sharpshooter who calls on the Lord while taking aim. Having previously experienced action in Italy and North Africa, the close-knit squad sets out through areas still thick with Nazis. After they lose one man in a skirmish at a bombed village, some in the group begin to question the logic of losing more lives to save a single soldier. The film's historical consultant is Stephen E. Ambrose, and the incident is based on a true occurance in Ambrose's 1994 bestseller D-Day: June 6, 1944.
