Continuity mistake: In the early scene where Frank Jr. and Sr. share a hug in the apartment building, as Frank Jr. hugs him, Frank Sr. lowers his jacket down with the right sleeve just above his elbow; however, in the next shot, the jacket moved back into its original position, with the right sleeve still completely covered. (00:17:50)
Factual error: On the plane, while being escorted by FBI agents, Frank Jr sees New York's LaGuardia Airport and says, "There it is, LaGuardia Airport, runway 44." A runway numbered 44 is impossible. No runway can be numbered over 36 because there are 360 degrees in a circle. (01:58:25)
Frank Abagnale Sr.: You know why the Yankees always win, Frank?
Frank Abagnale, Jr.: 'Cause they have Mickey Mantle?
Frank Abagnale Sr.: No, it's 'cause the other teams can't stop staring at those damn pinstripes.
Trivia: Frank Abagnale's father was, in real life, a straight honest law abiding citizen, and not the shonky con-man as depicted in the movie.
