Catch Me if You Can Opening Title Sequence

Kuntzel and Deygas's memorable and idiosyncratic title sequence to Steven Spielberg's comedy drama thriller Catch Me if You Can (2002), starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks, depicting the career of the world's most successful con artist, Frank Abagnale Jr.. The slender Lowreyesque figures run through environments that symbolise key plot points from the film, and are accompanied by John Williams's floaty, 1960s jazz-era score. The title design credit is discreetly featured in the shelf, while the papers blow past the pursuer's face. No copyright infringement intended. To be removed at the behest of the distributor.

16 year old runs up $3,490 bar tab
This Japanese kid is not match to the 24 year old Georgia teen who spent $53,000 for a night of partying at a strip club for graduating from Georgia Tech. But this Japanese kid could give the Georgia teen a run for his bill because he is all of 16. This reminds me of Frank Abagnale Jr (Leonardo DiCaprio) from the movie Catch me if you can.
