We continue our True Lies series with the story of a young runaway who poses as an airplane pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer, all to get validation from his dad. That’s right, it’s time for Steven Spielberg’s “Catch Me if You Can” as our February member bonus episode.
A show about movies and how they connect
We love movies. We’ve been talking about them, one movie a week, since 2011. It’s a lot of movies, that’s true, but we’re passionate about origins and performance, directors and actors, themes and genres, and so much more. So join the community, and let’s hear about your favorite movies, too.
When the movie ends, our conversation begins.

We close True Lies with Big Eyes: Burton’s restraint disappoints, Waltz’s choices divide us, Adams shines, and domestic coercion gets bland treatment.
We unpack Robert Redford’s Quiz Show in the True Lies series: institutional pressure, father-son devastation, and how privilege turns fraud natural.
