On Christmas day I went to see the movie "catch me if you can" with Tom hanks and Leo decaprio. Decaprio plays an elusive thief who changes his name frequently, but always keeps the same first name
"Frank". Guess what, he uses the name "Frank Black" twice in this movie, as his alias. Has anyone else seen this movie?

Hey, I started this topic earlier - called "SHOUT OUT?" I believe. Anyway, I haven't seen the movie - but no press is bad press, right?

How's the flick? I'm kinda interested in checking it out.

As far as the "reference", I wouldn't be surprised if Spielberg or whoever decided to use "Frank Black" merely for the same reason as Chuck T: it's normal sounding. Or maybe historical accuracy (I doubt it) since it's based on a real guy, right?

A general observation: I must applaud Leo D for starring in simultaneous releases from Steven Spielberg AND Martin Scorsese. That's a pretty rare "accomplishment" I bet.
