catch me if you can, and egos

picked this up at Target for $5. It's not widescreen, but for $5 it's still worth it. The title sequence alone is worth the cost ... It has that Rankin/Bass look, which of course is what attracts me. And it sets the tone for this movie, which is fun and effortless in a way that only Spielberg can do -- it very much wants to be a '60s Cary Grant movie, and in some ways I think it succeeds. I certainly wouldn't put Leonardo DiCaprio at the top of the list of the "new" Cary Grants. That spot is reserved (in my mind) for George Clooney, who also is at the top of my "Entertainers Whose Politics I Happily Ignore" list. 

Completely, totally unrelated: this is the coolest blog aggregator site i've seen. and i love the URL as well.
