Yeah, the real guy is still in an airport in Paris. There was a problem with his papers, and other papers were stolen. He's emigrated to another country due to his country of origin having undergone a change of regime... I think Belgium has agreed to accept him if he will agree to something he's refused to do so far? I think it's been almost 20 years he's been there. Sad.
Spoiler alert:
Speilberg's version is a lot shorter (he gets to go home, eventually.) and Hanks is sane, sharp as a tack, but secretive about why he wants to visit.
