Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What was the full name of Leonardo Di Caprio's character?

Answer: Frank William Abagnale Jr.

 Frank Abagnale is a real person, born in 1948. He was a consultant on the film.
2. The real-life Frank played a French policeman in the movie.

Answer: True

A group of gendarmes co-operate in arresting Frank. Like Erin Brockovich, Abagnale got a tiny part in the movie.
3. What was the first job where Frank masqueraded as a qualified worker?

Answer: substitute teacher

 As a sub myself, I really enjoyed this scene where new student Frank takes over the class and whips them into shape. His father just smiled when he heard about it. Tom Berenger starred in "The Substitute."
4. Frank appeared on a TV game show. What show was it?

Answer: To Tell the Truth

 "To Tell the Truth" had a panel who questioned 3 people, the actual interesting person and two "impostors." In Frank's case, the other two were impostors pretending to be an impostor! John Glenn was on "Name that Tune" before he was famous.
5. In Frank's game show appearance, the host and one panelist were shown. Who were they?

Answer: Joe Garagiola and Kitty Carlisle

 "To Tell the Truth" was a hit show from the amazing team of Goodson and Todman. Garagiola was already famous as a Major League catcher. Carlisle was a movie actress and wife of playwright/producer Moss Hart.
6. When Frank impersonated an airline pilot, what airline did he pretend he was with?

Answer: Pan American

 The scene where Frank puts the Pan Am stickers on the phony checks was hilarious.
7. When Frank goes to see a James Bond movie, he's inspired to have a suit identical to Bond's made for him. He also does a pretty fair impression of Sean Connery. What was the title of the Bond movie?

Answer: Goldfinger

 Miami Beach's Fontainebleau Hotel and Gert Frobe as Goldfinger are shown. Frobe was skewered by Mike Myers in "Goldmember."
8. Which actor who appeared in "Catch Me If You Can" also appeared in "Annie Hall" and "The Deer Hunter"?

In "Annie Hall," Walken played Annie's suicidal brother Duane who wanted to drive into the headlights of oncoming traffic. In "Deer Hunter" he was Nick, the soldier who became a "star" of Russian roulette in Viet Nam.
9. When Frank poses as a doctor he gets a word or phrase from a TV medical show which he then uses on the interns he's supervising. What was it?

Answer: Do you concur?

 Frank did a lot with just a little knowledge.
10. Which actor who appeared in "Catch Me If You Can" also appeared in "Apocalypse Now" and "Wall Street"?

Answer: Martin Sheen

In "Apocalypse," Sheen played Captain Willard, who was assigned to assassinate Col. Kurtz (Marlon Brando) in the remote jungles of Viet Nam. In "Wall Street," he played Carl Fox, the owner of a small company in danger of being taken over by Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas in an Oscar-winning role).

Sheen's son Charlie played whiz Bud Fox, Gekko's boot licker. Martin is also dad to Emilio Estevez. Martin's original name was Raoul Estevez.
11. When Frank was masquerading as a doctor, he wanted to marry a young woman who worked at the hospital. What was her first name?

Answer: Brenda

 Brenda Strong apparently ratted on Frank to the authorites after she found out he was a fake. She was played by Amy Adams.
12. Complete the tag line of "Catch Me If You Can": "The true story of _________ . "

Answer: a real fake

 And what a charming fake he was! Leonardo was perfectly cast.
13. Tom Hanks as Hanratty worked for what agency?

Answer: FBI

 Hanratty eventually had a small army of helpers and finally became Frank's boss.
14. In the scene where Frank gets past all of the agents at the airport by hiding behind a crowd of young women in stewardess uniforms, what is the name of the airport?

Answer: Miami International

 Frank also decoyed the agents out of position by reporting himself as sitting in a car outside the terminal!
15. When Frank was posing as a lawyer, he was getting info from a TV show. What show was it?

Answer: Perry Mason

 This led to a problem in the courtroom similar to those faced by Michael Richards in "Trial and Error."
16. When Frank had his James Bond suit made, the tailor said he should also get a car like Bond's, which we see him driving in the next scene. The last part of the make and model of the car is "DB 5." What is the first part?

Answer: Aston Martin

 The Aston Martin made its first appearance in "Goldfinger."
17. What was the name of the apartment complex Frank lived in when he was posing as a doctor?

Answer: Riverbend

 Hanratty went to question Frank's dad and saw a letter from Frank with the return address, which led him and his men to Frank's apartment where they almost got him.
18. In what country did Hanratty finally arrest Frank?

Answer: France

 Frank was in a French prison, very sick and seemingly near death when Hanratty found him. France was Frank's mom's native country.
19. What actor who appeared in "Catch Me If You Can" is also the father of an actor and the husband of a famous singer?

Answer: James Brolin

Nope, not Paul Reubens. Brolin played Pee Wee for about a minute at the end of "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" when Hollywood made a picture about Pee Wee. Morgan Fairchild played Dottie. Brolin is the father of actor Josh Brolin and of course husband of Barbra, without the "a".
20. The director of "Catch Me If You Can" also directed ALL of these EXCEPT ________ ?

Answer: Star Wars

 Steven Spielberg made "Duel," a TV movie but a great one, in 1971, before he made his first Hollywood feature, "The Sugarland Express." "Hook" and "1941" were 2 of his less-successful efforts (you can tell I'm a fan). George Lucas directed "Star Wars." Source: imdb.com
