A classic Steven Spielberg film starring Leonardo DiCaprio is available to stream on Netflix – and it’s already soaring up the UK charts.

Catch Me If You Can, released in 2002, is a crime-comedy film that stars Leo alongside Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, Amy Adams, and Martin Sheen.

The semi-autobiographical film is based on the story of Frank Abagnale Jr., a security consultant and alleged conman who pulled off a number of heists as a teenager.

Hanks plays FBI agent Carl Hanratty, who is tasked with tracking Abagnale down as the game of cat and mouse between the two eventually goes global.

While his story is heavily disputed these days, Abagnale’s tales of crimes he apparently committed had the interest of movie bosses as early as 1980.
