Have You Seen: Catch Me If You Can (2002)

In "Have You Seen?" we discuss a movie that some of us know well and others have just now seen for the first time.This week we revisit Catch Me If You Can, a crime comedy drama directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks and Christopher Walken, about a con artist who evades the FBI for years while being one of the most accomplished forgers of his time and posing as various professions including airline pilots, doctors and lawyers.We talk about how the movie has held up and why it is the product of a different era in Hollywood, how the movie makes a scammer and con artist a sympathetic character we can root for, whether the scams hold up on rewatch or whether it's all in the presentation and production values, whether being accurate to the life of the real Frank Abagnale is important for a movie like this, whether the movie was improved by embellishing Frank's life and adding a family subplot and increasing the role of his father that did not happen like it was shown in the movie, and much more.Check out our other reviews and clips on all major platforms here:https://linktr.ee/EyeOfTheStormMoviePodcast
