Yes, that title of course (CUIYC) comes from the song and from the plot of the movie.
The Tom Hanks movie was Catch ME If You Can. It also starred Leonardo DiCaprio. It is a true story about a con man and forgerer.
By the way, there was an old Tony Curtis movie also about a man who pretended to be other people including a Navy doctor aboard a ship.

Quoting Brian Medway: "Just a strange observation of sorts. Back in those days if you notice, all the cool guys stood the same way. Legs wide apart knees slightly flexed. John Lennon's stance was the same. Yikes even Tom Jones (not one of my favourites)stood like that too. Too bad about Mike Smith. Great singer in his day."

ANSWER: Criminally tight 1960s trousers! Any other stance was uncomfortable, in a way only we gentlemen understand...
