'Catch Me If You Can'
Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks were flanking director Steven Spielberg at the Los Angeles premiere of " Catch Me If You Can." It’s the true story of Frank Abagnale Jr., a high school aged con man on the run from the FBI.
Martin Sheen plays Leo's prospective father-in-law and was impressed with him. Sheen says, "He's very active in the environment. We had that in common."
After an off the cuff moment with the film's legendary director Steven Spielberg, it was Tom Hanks, who paid the elusive Leo the highest compliment. He says, "All I did was try to steal from him. I tried to watch what he was doing and keep up with him. To put just as much spin on the ball when I threw it at his head, as he did when he threw it at my head."
