Catch Me If You Can follows the story of a young man named Frank Abagnale that used his cunning to become a con man that ended up making millions forging checks while also posing as a pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer. He successfully did this until he was eventually tracked down by a devoted FBI agent and captured. While this movie may seem to be too far-fetched to be possible, it’s based on the story of the real Frank Abagnale who actually did just what the movie portrays. He even ended up becoming an FBI advisor to help stop fraud just like the main character in Catch Me If You Can. Pretty impressive.
