Just saw “Catch Me If You Can.” Nicely done. It was as if Spielberg chose to get out of the way of the story, and it was a good decision. Impressive to see Tom Hanks in a supporting role.
One comics-related observation: Interesting that Hank’s G-man Carl Hanratty was able to determine that his quarry, Frank Abagnale (Leonardo DiCaprio) was not an adult because Abagnale used the name “Barry Allen” as an alias. As soon as Hanratty learned that Barry Allen was the Flash, he said, “He reads comic books! We’re looking for a kid!”
Back in the early 1960s, apparently it was just that simple.
