Another great retelling of an maritime accident, this time the loss of the Bounty replica.

Catch Me if You Can - I have not watched a better comedy so far, and the best part is that this comedy was a fact.
Yeah. One can not deny that this guy has a certain charm. Of course he was a criminal. But his smartness + boldness is actually amusing. But I think he would have a hard time these days.
