Listen "EPISODE 21: CATCH ME IF YOU CAN"
Episode Synopsis
This week on Crouch Cinema Corner, we’re cashing fraudulent checks and chasing dreams with Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks in Steven Spielberg’s stylish cat-and-mouse caper Catch Me If You Can! You voted for it in our Summer of Spielberg poll and now we're diving deep into cons, charm, and daddy issues.We talk about the real-life roots of Frank Abagnale Jr.’s incredible story, Spielberg’s signature themes of broken families and childhood trauma, and the film’s surprisingly emotional heart. There's plenty of praise for Christopher Walken’s dad energy, John Williams' effervescent score (including some mind-meld moments between your podcast hosts), and that unmistakable early-2000s visual style.From Leo’s glowing “aha” moment to that long airport hallway walk of self-reflection, we break down our favourite shots, music cues, and dysfunctional Spielberg flourishes. So grab your pilot uniform, forge a check or two, and join us for a fun and thoughtful discussion of this charming, jazzy, and surprisingly moving Spielberg gem.
