Catch Me If You Can is one of Spielberg's most slept on movies… and deep down it's actually a sad story disguises as the coolest story you've ever seen. We break down why Frank Jr. isn't really running from the FBI. We discuss Christopher Walken's Oscar nominated performance as the dad and why he doesn't get nearly enough credit for being the emotional backbone of this entire movie. We get into the wild real life story of Frank Abagnale and how the guy pulled off one final con nobody saw coming… convincing the entire world his story was true.
