“Catch Me If You Can” is a true story based on a man who cheated large corporations out of their money, after growing up in a small town in poverty. “Blow” is very similar in that it is based on the true events of a man who worked the drug cartel for millions of dollars, after growing up with his parents in the slums. The main characters in these films both use two different schemes to accomplish the same goal, which is the “American Dream,” after being far from it during childhood.

Frank’s need for stimulation could clearly be seen as an adolescent when he, after running away and surviving on cashing fraudulent checks, desired to partake in even more daring crimes as a result of the mere exposure effect in which the thrill of committing these crimes without any repercussion led to his increasing preference for them. In a way, the deceptive fraudulent checks that Frank created were directly representative of his deceptive nature since they could not easily be validated and had to travel weeks across the country. Frank’s desire to partake in increasing risky crimes during his merge led to the furthering development of his antisocial personality disorder as he took on greater impulsive acts of social deviance such as impersonating a Pan Am pilot and forging Pan Am payroll checks for over two million dollars. Utilizing his superficial charm, pathological lying, and lack of empathy Frank impressed and exploited people to feed his id-driven desire to commit more impulsive, daring crimes. The thrill of living on the edge of getting caught by the FBI, reached a turning point when Frank confidently impersonated the alias of a secret service agent and lied to avoid getting caught by Carl Hanratty, the lead investigator for his case. Realizing, he had just walked past the chief FBI

According to Durkheim, Social fact or social phenomenon are the main subject matter of sociology. He said in one of his pieces that social fact must be studied distinct from the biological and psychological phenomenon. Social order is the trend of behavior being used to exercise power over another person. It has become rules and regulations that have been set up by some authorities to be obeyed by another group of people who are being undermined in a society, it is a situation that oppressed people and limits them from their liberties.

African Americans are an example of a race that has been through discrimination at workplaces, schools, community etc. They are one race which has been a label or put in a class where the situation will never permit you to climb the ladder of success. Although you might have all the certification, qualification, the best schools, etc. but the fact that you came from the poor class or the lower class, it becomes very difficult for the Caucasian people to give you the opportunity you deserve, because of this, the citizens of American have been grouped into different classes which are upper, middle, working,

However, after his check is rejected, he turns instead to impersonating a Pan Am pilot after seeing one sign autographs to a small child outside the bank. After acquiring a uniform from the company by saying that he “lost” his, he forges his credentials and passports after he creates a fake, Pan Am Air salary check and successfully cashing it in. His need for money to survive on his own drives these decisions to act on these illegal activities, outweighing the cost he will end up paying for committing them. Part of the Rational Choice Theory is whatever techniques the criminal learns and perfects to avoid detection from authorities. Frank’s first run in with authority is when FBI Agent Carl Hanratty tracks him through his forged Pan Am bills to a hotel he was staying at. In Frank and Carl’s first meeting, Frank impersonates a Secret Service agent named Barry Allen (after The Flash) when confronted by Carl’s gun, convincing the agent long enough in order for him to escape. After his close call, he retires to Georgia, where he impulsively convinces the hospital and town that he is a Harvard medical doctor after meeting a new, young nurse named Brenda, whom he ends up falling in love with. The branch that Frank was assigned to was chief doctor of the pediatric ward, where they don’t do much work. The motivation behind this was to get closer to Brenda, whom he had an attraction to when he first met her. His growing love for

In the film Catch Me If You Can, by Steven Spielberg, Carl Hanratty, is an FBI agent on the chase for Frank Abagnale Jr. In this scene, he finds out Frank is hiding in a small town in France at a factory writing himself cheques.
