This is one of those films that had to be based on a true story - because otherwise you just wouldn't believe it. Frank Abagnale Jr was still a teenager when he successfully started convincing people that he was an airline pilot, then a lawyer, and then a doctor. As Frank lived it up on forged cheques, the FBI spent years chasing him around the world. Leonardo Dicaprio is an exeptionally good actor, as his many roles, such as Titanic, The Wolf on Wall Street and Romeo and Julliet suggest.
