* DracoInLeatherPants: The RealLife Frank Abagnale Jr. felt that the movie did this to him, giving the "character" a more sympathetic backstory. Abagnale went on record saying he pulled the cons he did, [[WellDoneSonGuy not to impress his father]], [[ItAmusedMe but because he could.]] Additionally, as detailed in BasedOnAGreatBigLie, almost none of the story actually happened, so he continues to scam audiences even to this day.

Actor trivia shoehorn.


* HilariousInHindsight: Frank shows his comic book credentials by using Dr. Connors as an alias. A decade later, Creator/MartinSheen would play "Uncle Ben" Parker in ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'', which featured the Lizard as the main villain.

Added DiffLines:

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Brenda's parents are portrayed as a harmless, if slightly conservative, old couple, and the film mostly glosses over them kicking Brenda out on the streets for being groomed.
