Fantastic film. Unfortunately this edition suffers from a lack of subtitling or closed captions, so even for those who don't choose to use them, the summary of the fates of the characters at the end doesn't show, not to mention that all those who need subtitles can not enjoy the movie.

Here's how real-life con artist Frank Abagnale Junior got away with it, and kept on getting away with it, by charming, hoodwinking and seducing all he encountered - and an interesting insight into how his father inspired him - truly fascinating, very entertaining, great performances from Di Caprio and Hanks. The scenes with Martin Sheen are especially funny.
