Catch Me If You Can (2002)

The Third Part in our Criminal Christmas Trilogy

In the third part in our criminal Christmas trilogy we are granted many a gift from the Steven Spielberg classic (that's right, we're old and you're old) CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. These presents include:

  • A great knock knock joke from Tom Hanks that you most definitely should tell to your non-mask wearing family member.
  • Amy Adams with an even deadlier combination of disarming charm when you add braces to the mix.
  • And Leonardo DiCaprio in no man's land of handsome (which ain't that bad, Leo) in playing too young and too old.

Okay maybe that last one was a bit of coal but I believe one of the finest actors of his generation will get over it. Hopefully you will as well and come back for your stocking of film nerd neuroses as we wrap-up our trilogy of A New Identity for Christmas in our TiT Holiday Special!
