Yeah, I know...I figured Spielberg massaged the facts of the Abagnale story. I just didn't figure he did it as much as he apparently did. For me, much of the appeal of a movie like "Catch Me If You Can" rides on the subject of the film actually having done things that are, at least, similar to what takes place in the film."Gangs of New York" is a different complaint. I don't like it when films change key elements of important historical events like the Civil War draft riots. Same complaint that people have raised on this board in the past.
