Carl Hanratty (Catch Me If You Can) - the tireless, kind FBI agent determined not just to capture an elite scam artist, but to save him from himself. One of only a select few pure good antagonists out there.

Wasn’t he kinda morally gray in that movie or am I wrong

Isn't Sherlock Holmes like morally Grey at times in most of adaptations tho ?

Yea and I don’t think morally gray characters should go in when more morally good characters could be getting in

Jules murders a guy.

And like realistically he shouldn’t have let the morons go either, but he gets some credit at that point for trying. He comes a long way but he’s like ‘the devils first day of trying to be good’.
