7/5/2023 0 Comments White collar season one onlineThe series is rich in historical inuendo. Both learned eventually to live an honest life but we're not given the chance to be trusted. France robbed Jan from a normal life as a child as did Neal by his corrupted police father. The loaf of bread Jan ValJan stole because of France's cruelty to his family was so much more applicable to modern day when captured by Neal's symbolic stealing of identities because of being raised by the underground protection system. In fact Neal and Jan ValJans origins are starkly alike. And it gives the happy ending for the story that unfortunately got interrupted by the French Revolution in the book. And the very closing scene in which you catch a glimpse of Neal in France is the perfect nod to Victor Hugo's incredible talent. If you compare Neal with Jan ValJan you see the same person. Actually I thought the fact that they modernized and adapted a classic work to TV was genius. Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer), a charming criminal mastermind, is finally caught by his nemesis, FBI Agent Peter Burke (Tim DeKay. Loved it, definitely smacks of Les Miserables. White Collar is about the unlikely partnership of a con artist and an FBI agent who have been playing cat and mouse for years. Only Jan ValJan didn't make actual friends with his policeman hunter and he didn't fake his death, and his sidekick was actually his adopted daughter not a very smart and bald guy.
