One of the year's most acclaimed hits, DreamWorks' "Catch Me If You Can" checks in on VHS and DVD on May 6, 2003. Academy Award(R)-winning director Steven Spielberg, Oscar(R) nominee Leonardo DiCaprio and two-time Academy Award(R) winner Tom Hanks engage in an intriguing game of cat-and-mouse based on the autobiography of a brilliant young master of deception, Frank W. Abagnale, Jr. Featured on over 65 "Top 10" critics' lists, "Catch Me If You Can" recently received Oscar(R) nominations for Best Supporting Actor (Christopher Walken) and Best Original Score (John Williams).

The double-disc DVD gives viewers a very personal look at this star-studded production, opening with footage of a never-before-seen Spielberg tradition of toasting new cast members (in this case, DiCaprio) into the "film crew family." Giving viewers the feeling that they are part of the super-charged 56-day production, the DVD programs feature candid all-new interviews and exclusive footage that captures the infectious on-set energy that helped make this film such a unique entertainment experience.
