great movie , Do you Concur ?

I had a girlfriend who was a PEN Tester. It is short for penetration tester. She would trick her way into buildings and offices and steal information off computers or go into the file room and take pictures of classified folders. She got paid to do it. Companies would hire her to see how unsecured their buildings were. She would tell me stories about just how easy it was to get into buildings just because you were carrying a clipboard and a briefcase. Most of the time she didn't need to show her ID or security pass because the receptionist would just give her a "visitors" pass... She told me that all you needed was confidence... I could never do that. I'd panic and get confused. If you have ever seen the movie "Sneakers" then at the beginning of that movie they are Pen Testers. They get paid to break into peoples places so they can tell the owners how to stop people from breaking into their places.

$50 in US dollars in 1969 was worth around $209 today

MADALINA - THE GREAT IMPOSTOR (1960) played by actor TONY CURTIS is ANOTHER TRUE STORY (like Leonardo DiCaprio Catch Me If You Can) -- This 1960 movie is the story of an American impostor named FERDINAND DEMARA (who quit high school but had a PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY) He actually joined the United States Army in 1941 and later the US Navy where he was trained as a Medic Corpsman His impersonations include: monk living in monasteries, civil engineer, sheriff's deputy, hospital orderly, lawyer, cancer researcher, psychology teacher in college, assistant to the warden of a Texas prison, doctor in the Royal Canadian Navy on a destroyer during the Korean War (where he successfully performed emergency surgeries), school teacher, and an FBI agent. He was caught and in prison multiple times. His story was first in a book THE GREAT IMPOSTOR and another book The Rascal and the Road, both books by Robert Crichton (Amazon reviews say the movie is better than the book) TONY CURTIS was a popular leading man in movies in the 1950's - 60's and TV to 2005 This Leonardo DiCaprio movie was great too. THANKS !! (Dave Strong)

I bet you'd like The Aviator as well. It's also DiCaprio, also historical, and also about airplanes.

this guy is probably why all the procedures are the way they are now

Please watch "Flight" with Denzel. Great film!

I recommend What's Eating Gilberts Grape if you want a great one

♡ Please react to : - *Flight* (2012) _/starring _*_Denzel Washington_* _Directed by _*_Robert Zemeckis_*_ (Back to the Future)_

She did teach me a few tricks. Things like how little things you can buy legally can be used to get you some things that most normal people can't get and then that thing can be used to get things only government officials are supposed to have... I've missed out a few steps but you get the idea.

Jennifer Garner's character got what she wanted too. Just cost her more than she expected.

Boy math is awesome.

As always,I thoroughly, enjoyed your company watching this wonderful film . I am the opposite of a movie buff as this is the first time I have ever seen Tom and Leo act in anything and I see why they are both so highly praised. As for you not being afraid of blood, well, that is NOT surprising as you are Runanian and Transylvania is best known as the mysterious land of bloodthirsty vampires and howling wolves. which, as you know, is in modern central Romania.

Loved your reaction. I watched this movie in the theaters and I had the VHS. At the end there was an interview with the real Frank A. When you see his charm talking, you realize he could sell you a time share in a county jail. He was that good. It would be nice if you cosplayed as a pilot or flight attendant. I'm sure you would look great in uniform. There is a movie with few reaction (it's not a DiCaprio movie) that I would love you reacting to. It is called Back Draft. Great cast, intense and emotional.

I love your accent ❤ 😚

So proud of you for catching "The Flash" 🥰

Why did she stop being a flight attendant I wonder. I've thought about doing that it seems like a legit gig *lol wait did I just watch three min of this and she says is this tom hanks lol* another edit (let's not lie this thing is an hour long) but ugh the way they set up his parents relationship wait is that a real thing you need four stripes to be a pilot

The calm cat scratches the most.

Yes, it's a great movie. You nailed it in the post reaction. I enjoy your reactions and hope you can keep creating content.

Leo and Hanks on film together with Northeastern accents? Yes, yes, yes! Love this movie. Playful yet serious, Sad yet funny, great flick!

I concur. Brilliant film! It captures the era perfectly. 👌 What a lovely surprise to see you'd reacted to this gem!

Great choice and great reaction as always Miss Bisscute, love it 💓💓💓. For future reactions I suggest two movies starring Tom Hanks: Splash and Big and two films by Leonardo Di Caprio: Blood Diamond and the Revenant.

Fun story: in the mid 2000s we've had a similar case here in Brazil but the guy pretended not only to be a pilot but also the airline owner's son 😂😂 He had an insane ability to persuade ppl... He even went to the carnaval pretending to be the owner's son...he hired bodyguards,flew to the carvanal at Recife flying an helicopter by himself (he didnt have a real license) and all the famous ppl in there were D riding him cuz they thought he was super rich and he also took some celebs to fly with him on "his" helicopter 😂...the tv network that was covering the event interviewed him as if he's was the actual owner's son and he gave an amazing interview talking naturally af and even said the airline's slogan at the end 😂😂 But on the same night there was a girl at the Carnaval who knew the actual son of the airline's owner and she called the police.. He went to the airport trying to escape got in a private jet flew from Recife to Rio (about 2.300km) but when he landed the Federal Police was already waiting for him... He escaped prison a few times even through the front door once 😂 Dude is insane...nowadays he's already out and coaches ppl on how to sell cuz according to him "if he sold things that didnt even exist,selling actual things isnt that hard". They made a movie about it called "Vips" its in portuguese but for sure there might be a version with english subtitles.

Another great reaction, thank you!

Always love your commentary / perspective. Your intuition proved correct on a few things in this one.

Caught me straight off that this was going to be a good reaction because of your work experience. 👍

23:49 "Fleming." In case you didn't know, the author of the original James Bond books was Ian Fleming.

Sure, great movie. But you still need to watch the movie where he got his first Oscar nomination. "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" Young Johnny Depp too! Rawr!

Good reaction. You are smart as a whip!

I always loved this movie. My favorite Leo movie is still 'Gangs of New York'. It reminds me of my Irish side that came over and settled there about that time.

Lovely. I give you 95/100. The only reason that your reaction wasn't perfect is because I would love to have seen Tom's face when Leo did, belatedly, return to The F B I offices after he went away for the weekend.

I find this movie very motivational, everytime I watch it I wanna do a lot of things. Don't get me wrong, legal things. Nice reaction, Biss! 👍

Thumbnail of the year Biss... awesome reaction to a cool movie. We didnt know we needed a tom and leo collaboration but im sure glad it happened. ❤ from fla usa

Biss, another quality reaction. Glad you enjoy Spielberg's storytelling style so much. This film is so rich in various ways, even on repeating viewings. If you want to react to a Spielberg film that is very appropriate to the world's current difficult events, I also recommend 'Munich'. It has absolutely A-class performances from Eric Bana and Geoffrey Rush (also a pre-007 Daniel Craig!), and is also a very deep and moving story that makes the viewer ask questions. 9:00 they were doing sandwiching LMAO

Excellent reaction! This film is so interesting on many levels, but must be even more so for someone who was a flight attendant.

Love that FO jacket

Another great reaction Biss, this movie its so good its one of my favourites and what a deluxe cast. And some fun-facts about this movie, it took 22 years for the book to be turned into a movie. and Frank Abagnale admits that the story was exaggerated. Carl Hanratty is based on several FBI agents who pursued Frank Abagnale, mostly one named Joseph Shea. If it were true-to-life, Christopher Walken would hardly be in this movie. In real life, Abagnale never saw his father again after he ran away. But Spielberg wanted to have Frank Jr. continue to seek his father's approval, to show up in his Pan Am uniform to impress him and seek advice from him. Jennifer Garner only had to work for one day. Spielberg had seen Jennifer Garner on Alias and thought she was about to become a big star. He was pleased that she was willing to take such a small role in his movie, and she was probably pleased, too: it only required a day of shooting. The film’s score was composed by the legendary John Williams, known for his iconic collaborations with Spielberg. Williams’ music enhances the movie’s suspenseful moments and injects emotion into the heartfelt scenes, creating an unforgettable cinematic experience. Frank Abagnale Jr. appears in a cameo role as a French police officer in the film. I think this adds an intriguing layer of authenticity to the movie, as the audience gets a glimpse of the real-life con artist. Keep up the good work.

I've never heard of this movie. It was a good movie and great cast. Thanks Biss.

Flight would be an awesome reaction 🛫

If you Google Frank Abignale Jr., you’ll see several of his lectures. They’re fascinating how he actually got away with this and what his real thought processes were.

Your comments in the movie were awesome. And I conquer, great movie. 😃🤙🏾

Hey Biss if you want more Leo might I suggest The Revenant.

Great reaction for a great movie. If you want to watch another great Spielberg movie with Tom Hanks, I recommend "Bridge of Spies" (2015). A very good movie, but less well known than "Catch me".

"Finally my brain is paying off" I'm waiting to be able to say that.

Lovely reaction, as usual. It’s important to remember that the currency ratio between then and now is about 10 to 1. I’m curious as to how working as a flight attendant nowadays is different from what was depicted in the film (understanding that the film is probably not accurate from that era either)?

As you asked, here are some movies I would recommend: Road to Perdition (2002), Three Days of the Condor (1975), Das Boot (1981, but watch the directors cut from 1997 in German with subtitles), Twelve Monkeys (1995), Up in the Air (2009), Rush (2013)

Biss... this is an awesome movie. mostly because it's based on real events! my question is... did you know that when you were reacting to it?

Such a great movie. The first time I saw it many years ago, I hated it, but then it turned out to be one of my favorites.

I love this movie! The aesthetics of the 60s in film is always fun to watch. Plus you can't go wrong with Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks in a Steven Spielberg film.

6:28 $25 in 1964 (the beginning of the years this movie is set in) is equivalent to about $250 today.

Great reaction. When I first saw this, I burst out laughing and almost choked on some popcorn said the Lutheran thing. Really, what's the 1st clue. His age, the suitcases full of money?

Das Boot is a good one if your up for a long movie. Best enjoyed in German with subtitles.

That “let’s pray it will work” joke was too funny and corny but right up my alley 😂

I like the thumbnail. ;)❤

Literally laughed at "Thank you Karen, now my shirts are pink."

"I used to be a flight attendant . . . [long pause] but now I drink wine 24/7." 😀

Hi Miss Biss!😊 Tom Hank's role is actually fictional. It is a composite of several agents that chased Frank. For drama purposes they thought having one central character was more impactful. Ian Fleming actually wrote the James Bond books. Frank uses that name when getting the James Bond suit. Many of the claims Frank made about his crimes have been refuted over the years. So, he may actually be a better con man than we thought. Great reactions to this well-made film that may be more fiction than we knew, Miss Biss!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏

"Game recognize game", is basically what you were saying at the end.

Muy buena película, estoy seguro que te va a gustar,saludos con mucho cariño desde PERÚ.✌😊

you're so right, you want to stop a thief hire a thief, that's how Joseph P Kennedy Sr became first head of Security and Exchange Commission

For more Christopher Walken (the Dad) check out The Dead Zone (a Stephen King novel). Also, try Wall Street for the iconic character Gordon Gekko. Or, maybe, The Firm with Tom Cruise.

At last my recommendation to you was done! I knew you would like it very much. Much Love to You and Ukraine 💙💛💙🌻🌻🌻

You didn't recognize that Handratty's partner was Guarnere from Band of Brothers?

Great movie but, it was discovered that Abagnale made up the majority of the events depicted in the film

There was a kid in Florida a few years ago who pretended to be a Gynecologist. He was 17.

The movie which taught the world about social engineering like no other. 🙂

The outro music was fantastic.....great choice.

This is based on a true story and the guy Frank did most of the things in the movie that’s what makes this movie so interesting

🥰🥰

How awful, she is using her beauty, I mean he is using his handsomeness. Btw a costume can open many doors, all the worlds a stage.

The Benjamin's are the Franklin's 😊

💖💖💖

👍

For another good Tom Hanks movie, try "That Thing You Do". He co-stars and directed it. It is about a the American Pop Music industry in the 60s, and is quite fun, with catchy music. Other movie recommendations: Open Range - a western starring and directed by Kevin Costner Gossford Park - a who-dunnit set in an English mansion in the early 20th century. Huge ensemble cast. Boogie Nights - Ensemble drama set in the 70s porno world. This would be your first entry into the work of Paul Thomas Anderson writer/director.

Hello Biss please reacts This Boy's Life, Out of Africa, Summer of '42, Driving Miss Daisy and Saturday Night Fever.

The real Frank Abagnale Jr. has a cameo at 46:26. He's the man with the sixpence carrying Leonardo off.

Frank wouldn't have became a criminal had the mother not cheated and ruined the family because of selfish reasons. Most criminals come from single mother homes, it's not great.

Dredd 2012

One of my favorite movies, Not sure if it was back then but today if you lie to an FBI agent you go to prison. Great reaction!

This is a very underrated Spielberg movie. It's incredible how good it is

You gotta remeber this is in the 60's. Security was way more lax. Even 20 years ago airport secuirty wasnt as strict as today.

Some recommendations: The Hangover Goodfellas Loki Trading Places Wolf of Wall Street

@23:53 Movie Trivia: DiCaprio's character is using the alias Mr. Fleming here. Ian Fleming was the original author of all the James Bond novels (and I believe also a British spy in real life??)

"I don't encourage people doing crimes to get a job" Most high profile jobs require this as a resume.

It is a very good movie, but Frank's book is even better. It has so many more interesting details that couldn't be included without making the film twice as long.

Concur Confirmed!! Now we get Whats Eating Gilbert Grape right with not only Leo your boyfriend but young Johnny Depp and smokin hot Juliette Lewis (so good in From Dusk till Dawn) as well

4 million USD in 1968 is 36 million USD today, so 12 years makes a lot more sense.

The cat saying is the same as "Still waters run deep".

Hey Biss, have you reacted to Back the Future yet??

Bisscute did you recognize "Bill Gaurnere" 45:00 =)

30:37 "In Romania, we have a saying: 'The calm cat scratches the worst.' " The best parallel I can think of in American English is, "It's the quiet ones you have to watch out for."

Bravo.

😄 At 4:21 Christopher Walken is deliberately dancing in an awkward fashion. 🕺 In reality, he is actually an excellent dancer. You can check out some of his moves in "Pennies From Heaven" (1981), which is also a really fun film in general.

$33,533,623.98 in Oct. 2023 equals $4,000,000 of buying power in 1969 (Average). The total inflation rate from 1969 (Average) to Oct. 2023 is 738.34%. The average inflation rate is 4.00% per year.

Biss, the opening intro title card still says "The Truman Show". 0:10

My used to be a booking agent for a speakers bureau, and Frank Abignale was one of her clients. She told me that he was the most charming man she’d ever met….and we got engaged after dating for 2 weeks. Lol

Christopher Walken's performance was so good.

the gangs all here: biss and a fly

Leo a bluddy good actor he can cover so many roles from a south african mercenary, handicapped son, American backpacker etc etc.try other movies like blood diamond, what's eating gilbert grape and the beach.

Boy math is hilarious
