Soul Man (1986)

"Soul Man" is a comedy film released in 1986, directed by Steve Miner. This humorous and thought-provoking movie follows Mark Watson (played by C. Thomas Howell), a privileged young white man who disguises himself as a black student to secure a scholarship to Harvard Law School.

The film tackles themes of race, privilege, and identity, using comedy to explore the complexities of racial dynamics in America. With its hilarious moments and social commentary, "Soul Man" challenges stereotypes and prompts discussions on racial equality.

While the film's subject matter may be controversial, the talented cast, including Rae Dawn Chong, Arye Gross, and James Earl Jones, deliver memorable performances that add depth to the story. If you're curious to experience the sounds and humor of "Soul Man," you can play and download them here.

A black n****? Right.
A Harvard law graduate can do a great many things
A Harvard law graduate...
A judge.
A lot of people compare it to a European city, but that's so stupid.
A pretty happy childhood, wouldn't you say?
A suit which proved financially devastating to the guilty party.
A useful member of society.
About four. And out of that four, how many do you think were black?
After all, who made him what he is?
All be seated please.
All ethical or disciplinary problems within the law school...
All my life,
All right, so I lost it! There's no law against that.
All right! Home, sweet home.
All right. Have you ever applied for a loan before?
All right. New York versus Rottenburg, 1979.
Almost beyond human comprehension.
Ambitious, cultured
America loves black people.
And academic establishments that drove him to his crime.
And all written work must be on time.
And anger in every pelvic thrust!
And deteriorating moral fiber.
And do what? Storm the administration building?
And he has wants and needs...
And I especially picked this music so I'd be forced to get out of bed and turn it off.
And I look at her and I say,
And I love the view.
And I trust that this committee will find the heart
And I'll take the ones without.
And I've worked very hard for all those things.
And if that means you've got to work twice as hard...
And if you get accepted and I don't,
And in another instance, our findings obliged us...
And it's never too soon to start networking.
And kiss that man's feet! Why not?
And last, but by no means least,
And Lisa!
And now he wants a three bedroom beach front Coop in rancho palos verdes!
And now, at last, I'm going to have one!
And that
And that guy got a better deal from Stanford.
And that I guess the experience is just too different.
And the last thing I have time for is you.
And the other one to drive the pink Cadillac in tight circles.
And they told us that he is at the top of the transfer wait list!
And to make the fullest possible reparations for the damage he has done.
And to share with me my hope...
And used it to buy timeshare in a condo in Barbados!
And we'll see what we can do for ya.
And we'll take Marcus. Oh, well, you know, look, I...
And when the antitrust suits come up, we handle the defense.
And when we finally crumble to dust,
And who gave you that great childhood, son?
And you can have, uh Gordon Bloomfeld.
And you expect memr. Watson,
And your credit rating's in the toilet.
And, well, you really are very...
And?
And? I'd like to volunteer one day a week during my school year...
And...
Any great romances in your past?
Anything at all
Are handled by a body known as the student faculty judiciary committee
Are we to understand that Mr. Watson himself was not inclined to attend today?
Are you crazy?
Are you happy? Are you happy with yourself?
As soon as possible.
As these little white shits,
At the time he improperly accepted the bouchard fellowship.
Automatic alarm timer. You see, I was taking a nap...
B.L.S.A.? Well, that's the, uh, black law student's association.
Because I did that yesterday.
Because I'm going to Harvard, and don't call me a liar!
Because if I'm gonna be 'impotent, '
Because, you know, I really don't feel like there's any red or white...
Before you pass judgment on him,
Before you say no...
Beg.
Binding me to donate a fixed percentage of my annual income after law school...
Both of 'em. Holy shit!
Bought your Christmas present and if you go into the room, you're gonna see what it is.
Boy, this guy McGrady is a real dog brain.
Brad. How's it going, Gordon?
Broken bones? No.
Bundy Dunbar, how many times have I asked you...
But
But also that he or she give the money to us.
But also,
But at least I can stay in school.
But but I guess it's all right,
But first
But honestly I think we just need to talk this thing through.
But I ask you,
But if no one in L.A. qualified, they open it statewide.
But if you're going to take up my class time making jokes,
But it's really not necessary.
But just in case your secret way falls through,
But look, I think I can pull some strings and get you into B.U. At midterm.
But mark, do you realize what this means? I mean...
But now a part of me is black on the inside even though I'm white on the outside.
But they told me there were no other applicants. From Los Angeles.
But this, of course, raises the question...
But what?
But you've learned something that I can't teach them.
But, uh, we did share a dryer.
Can determine your entire future in the law.
Can we blame him for the environment in which he was raised?
Can we blame him, ladies and gentlemen,
Can we help you move anything in? Uh, thank you.
Can we study tonight?
Can you name the precedent for us? Yes, sir.
Case of new York Mr.. Watson.
Cheating, plagiarism, any sort of dishonest or inappropriate behavior.
Cheese, punch, a new car
Classes now full are hey, gordo.
Come on, Brad. It'll be fun.
Come on, George and I will buy you dinner.
Come on, Karim. You don't want to be late!
Come on, mark. Give yourself a break. You didn't know.
Come on, you can still get on standby.
Come on. Why don't you let me buy you dinner sometime? You gotta eat, right?
Completely dumb. And a little deaf.
Congratulations, Mr. Watson. And good luck at Harvard.
Could understand.
Could you cite one for us?
Could you just scoot over there by the window, sweetheart?
Dad! That's
Daddy, did I tell you mark's going to Harvard law school? On scholarship?
Damn. You never have flash bulbs when you need them.
Devastating?
Did he have a knife? I think he had a knife.
Did you, uh did you get my check?
Do you have something to say, Mr. Watson?
Do you know what that thing is, mark?
Do you really hate the beach boys now?
Do you think you could help me change the washer on my shower?
Does Karim go to Harvard, too? Uh, no.
Don't apologize to me. Just remember,
Don't go out of this room. Okay.
Don't open that! Why not?
Don't patronize me.
Don't start waiting for this
Don't tell her anything. But I already told her.
Don't we, Bradley? Uh, yeah. Unbelievable.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry, Bradley. It's a long semester. Somebody will probably flunk out...
Don't you think an introduction might be in order? Absolutely.
Don't you think I've had enough humiliation for one day?
Each one with the intellectual capacity to
Even generously.
Exactly! And if I could just explain myself to him...
Excuse me, miss, but do you have any of that jello salad with the little marshmallows in it?
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Feel free to look me up, huh?
Fifty three thousand, nine hundred and seventy nine dollars.
Fine, want to know? I'm sorry
Five words, Gordo. For you, I have five words.
For the best black applicant from Los Angeles, California.
For the people with whom he was surrounded?
For the warped values which he learned from earliest childhood?
Four hundred years of oppression...
Frankly, to your tone of voice.
Friday. In the library.
From Los Angeles got accepted into Harvard this year?
From the department of water and power.
Full tuition plus $8,000 annual stipend...
Gentle cycle. Low heat.
George Walker.
George, why don't you put something on the jukebox?
Germs. Filthy bacteria.
Get back, Dorothy. I'll handle this.
Get me some more watermelon while you're at it.
Getting pulverized by drunken bigots.
Gimme that. Don't even think about it.
Given half a chance.
Go ahead.
Go back to your father, mark.
Go get my heroin and my hypodermic needle, bitch!
Go windsurfing!
Go, go, go! Yeah!
God, I just love sitting in alphabetical order, don't you?
God! Mr. Wizansky?
God. Really?
Golden rule again. I certainly wouldn't want you interfering...
Golden rule. Certainly wouldn't want you interfering every time I did something immoral.
Good game?
Good home, good education,
Good luck.
Good night.
Good night.
Good.
Gordo, gordo, gordo. How many people do you think...
Gordo, these babies are my ticket into Harvard law school!
Gordon, before we do this, I just want to say...
Gordon? Gordon Bloomfeld! Gordon!
Gordon. So, how were the islands?
Grandma and grandpa Walker, this is my friend, mark Watson. Glad to know you, mark.
Greedy, unable to support himself by honest labor.
Half of all costs to the most qualified applicant holding a Ph.D....
Hang on. Whoop.
Hard to say. I guess that's why they call it internal bleeding.
Harvard fucking law school!
Harvard law school!
Harvard scientists. I wanna see my baby's face.
Has been less than... outstanding...
Has power, Mr. Watson.
Have a nice day, boys.
Have a nice Thanksgiving.
He always wants more! He probably wants to sleep with my wife!
He encountered nothing but hostility and rejection at every turn.
He just wants, and wants, and wants!
He loves you very much. Oh, shut up, Dorothy. Mark
He never told me he was a black n****. I'm shocked.
He really keeps me going.
He was a Mountie up in Canada, don't you know? So it's been an uphill battle.
He writes to her every week just to let her know how smart she is.
He's a great kid.
He's got a, uh, meeting with the park police at 2:00.
He's interviewing with some of their top... horses.
Here. Miss Walker
Here. Mr. Watson
Hey, booey. Hey, barky.
Hey, buddy. How you doing?
Hey, Gordo!
Hey, gordo? What's this B.L.S.A.? Yeah?
Hey, guy! Sorry. Really.
Hey, look at this. What?
Hey, no offense. Right, pal?
Hey, Sarah?

Hi.
Hi.
Hi. Hi, mark.
Hi. Hi.
Hi. I'm Sarah Walker.
Hi. Oh, Sarah called a couple hours ago.
Hi. You guys.
His reputation and future were of course utterly destroyed.
His sole desire is to set the record straight...
Hmm. Come on, Whitney.
Holy chowder.
How about if I make a pot of coffee? No!
How are you gonna get rid of her? I'll tell her I'm white.
How are you? Mark's uh fine. Where's mark?
How could I have a credit history?
How did you get in my kitchen? What's the meaning of this?
How incredibly swell to see you.
How many black electricians does it take to screw in a light bulb?
How you been? How was your vacation? Excellent.
I already did it! Yeah, but mark
I also want you to feel good about yourself.
I am not a humorless man.
I ask you to consider the mitigating circumstances surrounding his crime.
I bet they are. I bet they are too.
I can't tell her I'm white. What am I gonna tell her?
I can't. I gotta stay here and figure out what I'm gonna do.
I checked two days before the deadline and nobody had applied so I thought I had it.
I could really feel...
I did. And now, I have one more thing that I want to give you.
I didn't know you had a I mean yeah.
I didn't know.
I dislike interruptions in my class, Mr. Watson.
I don't believe I have your paper.
I don't believe this is really unbelievable.
I don't believe this. This is unbelievable!
I don't believe you said that. For Christ's sake, be realistic. Look.
I don't know.
I don't know. I guess we got married too young.
I don't know. Maybe I'm sort of gray on the inside and the outside.
I don't really know what it feels like, sir.
I exceeded the recommended dosage.
I feel terrible. I haven't gotten you anything.
I feel the same way. Thanks.
I got an a.
I got Travis and Kelly down for expulsion at six to one.
I guess I could have used a study partner.
I guess I still like some of their funkier stuff.
I happen to love civil rights.
I have a very important assignment due tomorrow, and
I have important information for this committee. I have pictures. I have proof.
I haven't. I've seen it on mountaintops, but
I hope you don't mind if I use bits of this interlude in a short story I'm working on.
I hope you rot in hell.
I just couldn't help murmuring my approval of your opening remarks.
I just feel so frustrated!
I just got in sort of a fight.
I just have to study. Okay, so let's study together. I could drill you.
I just spent 18 hours in a jail cell...
I just told you I never applied for a loan before.
I just wanna say
I just wanna say...
I know how bad you needed that a on banks' final. And I know how much it meant to you.
I know you don't need the help, but I could really use it.
I love being black.
I love the law!
I love this woman oh, god, is she beautiful!
I mean I mean, it wasn't my fault!
I mean, because she thinks I'm black.
I mean, Harvard law school.
I mean, I guess you've been through a lot of stuff.
I mean, it was like...
I mean, uh
I mean, uh
I mean, we don't have any problems sexually, right?
I met her at the laundromat. I'm not saying it's serious or anything,
I might as well look 'impo'tant.'
I never thought all this would
I never thought I'd fall in love with her.
I really couldn't eat another bite.
I said there would be no excuses for late work,
I see he decided to come in native costume today.
I see.
I sold my car and stuff.
I swear to god I was gonna come talk to you about this myself.
I think I just changed my mind. I'm taking criminal law.
I think I'm in paradise. I mean, look
I think it stirred something in both of us.
I think it's just about gone to her head.
I think it's like, you know, a real militant group.
I think not.
I think she likes me.
I think the water's boiling.
I think you will do a good job.
I told you she liked me.
I understand you are allowed one phone call from jail?
I want you to stay away from him.
I was just trying to make an impression. You did.
I was next in line for that.
I work my ass off to give him everything he wants.
I would like to get a law degree, sir.
I would like to make a few things clear.
I would suggest that you begin work on it...
I'd like you to meet my good friend, uh, Karim.
I'll be in the library at 7:00, if you're interested.
I'll bet mark's people are pretty proud of him too.
I'll bring you your books.
I'll open yours. You open mine. Okay.
I'm doing biochem research for a suntan lotion company.
I'm Dorothy Watson and this is my husband, bill.
I'm going on the Henry Q. Bouchard memorial scholarship...
I'm gonna check on that coffee. Why don't you go check on that coffee?
I'm gonna go check on that coffee.
I'm gonna go confront him with this right now. Oh, boy!
I'm Gordon Bloomfeld, Mr. Watson's chief counsel in this matter.
I'm happy for you, mark. If you'll excuse me. Sarah.
I'm having dinner with my parents tonight.
I'm not a martyr. I've just seen the way you drive.
I'm not! Sarah
I'm really sorry, you know. I wasn't trying to make fun of it or anything,
I'm sorry, but while we agree with you philosophically, we can't help you here.
I'm sorry, Gordo, but I can't go crawling back there, like some pathetic wretch,
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel bad.
I'm there for ya. I'll keep it in mind.
I'm Thinkin' about growing some 'dreads.
I'm warning you. I'm armed.
I've always said, and you can check my record on this,
I've been extremely impressed by the way your work has improved over the semester.
I've heard about this sort of thing.
If I didn't like it, I could always get out.
If there were a beautiful, half naked girl curled up on my bed.
If this were a court of law, you would be cited for contempt.
If two people really care about each other.
If you have a yellow card, ensure that it's signed...
If you have food stamps, I need to see them first.
If you haven't lost it. I haven't lost it.
If you hear of anything oh, yeah, absolutely.
If you hope to bring your grade for the semester up to an acceptable level.
If you want me to leave, just tell me. No.
If you've had some sort of accident...
Ii don't know what to
Ii kinda wanted to run for senate.
Ii mean I don't think you should feel humiliated.
In classical or medieval jurisprudence.
In fact, last year our judgment on a case actually led one student...
In fact, one could argue that it was the lack of understanding of my client's special needs,
In his efforts to come by the money honestly,
In short,
In the future, Mr. Watson.
In the time allotted.
In the upper left hand corner.
In thus coming forward, my client throws himself upon the mercy of this committee.
Interracial relationships.
Is he a Muslim, or
Is he blind? No, no. He's just dumb.
Is Ronald Reagan, sir.
Is somebody in the kitchen?
Is this where we sign up? Mm hmm. Names?
Is, uh, something wrong, Mr. McGrady?
Isn't it great? Oh, it sure is.
It appears that Mr. Watson has reconsidered his decision.
It can't be! It is. Keep walkin'.
It doesn't matter. I still had no right to take that scholarship.
It looks like I'm not working hard enough.
It was great, dad. Yes, it was great, wasn't it?
It was the 1972 case of Oklahoma vs. Powell.
It's a new product this suntan lotion company's developing.
It's a secret way.
It's all such a game.
It's great!
It's immoral. Well, of course it is.
It's okay, Dorothy. Then who are these people?
It's Sarah. Wait a minute.
It's snowing.
It's snowing.
It's so beautiful.
It's the opportunity of a lifetime!
It's wrong.
Jesus Christ!
Jesus Christ. What did you let her in here for?
Joan rivers is hosting.
Joan rivers? What do you mean Joan rivers is hosting?
Just go over there, open the door and look in your room.
Just in case.
Just to see it all slip away like this
Just when you think you get to know somebody.
Karim Abdul... Ali.
Keen analytical minds.
Kids.
Let me do the work.
Let me drive you. No, it's okay. I can take a bus.
Let me see that.
Let me tell you what's for dessert.
Let me try to explain myself to you.
Life this semester is not going to be easy for any of you.
Listen, about that, uh, B.L.S.A. Thing.
Listen, scumbag guys, guys.
Look at you. You're turning white.
Look, guys, I'm really not that good or anything.
Look, no offense. Really, just a joke. Hey, no problem.
Look, professor,
Look, professor, I know what you're getting at.
Look. I don't want to be a pain in the ass here,
Looking good, mama. Looking good. I gots to be goin' now.
Make a lot of money,
Mark feels that he has done a grave injustice...
Mark Watson is actually... white.
Mark Watson,
Mark Watson. Can I get you anything?
Mark Watson. Okey dokey, why don't we just take mark on our team...
Mark, are you in trouble?
Mark, don't do this. Mark, come on. Listen to me.
Mark, I don't know how to tell you this, but you're not tan.
Mark, I think she's on to you.
Mark, I understand what you're feeling.
Mark, I was just wondering ♫
Mark, I'm coming back in now. It's freezing out there.
Mark, mark, check it out.
Mark, wait a minute. What are you talking about?
Mark, what are you doing with that thing on your head?
Mark, what I'm trying to say is
Mark, why don't you let us in? It's your parents.
Mark, you know that son of ours is just so proud of this girl here.
Mark?
Mark?
Mark. Mark.
Maybe I should get my car reuphol, Gordon?
Maybe take a few hostages? Sure!
Maybe you'd like to get together sometime.
Maybe...
Me Quambo will destroy you.
Merry Christmas.
Might try to do a particularly good job.
Miss Walker, perhaps you could complete the case citation...
Miss Walker?
Miss Walker.
Miss Zendel!
Miss Zendel? Here.
Mom, dad, tell me, what brings you to this wintry part of the country?
More clearly, then he would...
More than life itself. God!
Moved out of his integrity life phase and into generativity.
Mr. Bloomfeld, these proceedings are highly irregular as it is.
Mr. Van Dusen?
Mr. Van Dusen?
Mr. Watson,
Mr. Watson,
Mr. Watson,
Mr. Watson, an unfortunate situation has come to my attention,
Mr. Watson, I'm gonna level with you. This bank is finicky,
Mr. Watson?
Mr. Watson.
Mr. Watson. Thank you, sir.
Mr. Wizansky present, sir.
Much like your own.
My circuits are damaged.
My client is more than ready to come forward in person.
My client may yet become...
My client was in a position of dire financial need...
My guess is he falsified his transcripts or cheated on his l.S.A.T.'S.
My mucous membranes are infested with them.
My name's mark Watson. What's yours?
Nah, I go to Eleanor Roosevelt.
Naturally we were concerned when we learned that...
Next time you get arrested, use it to call me.
Nice to meet you, Karim!
No excuses. I repeat, no excuses...
No offense, right? Just a little joke?
No offense.
No problem.
No way. That's history.
No wonder. No wonder.
No wonder. No wonder.
No, believe me, my interest in him is purely sociological.
No, I didn't. I chickened out.
No, it's not that. You're obviously hiding more than a Christmas present here.
No, it's not.
No, mom. You say that, but believe me, you don't mean it.
No, no. I'll open mine, you open yours. Okay.
No, nobody's in the kitchen.
No, Sarah. Just tell me the truth.
No, sir, I can't.
No, sir, that would be it.
No, sir. I beg your pardon?
No, sir. I can't.
No, thank you. I just want to let you know...
No, why don't you guys take Gordon,
No, you're crazy.
No! I mean
No? Good.
No.
No. How's your credit history?
No. I think you just better drill yourself.
No. It's an appointment.
Not really.
Not that I don't have the same respect for you you may shut up now,
Not to watch that thing at the dinner table?
Now I've blown it with Sarah.
Now, where the hell are you going to get $53,000?
Objection.
Of course it is?
Of course you could go to jail for this.
Of course, utterly.
Of course. But what does that really mean anyway?
Of criminal intent.
Of the Marina Del Rey Bloomfelds.
Of Ukrainian descent;
Oh, and she is incredibly attracted to me.
Oh, boy.
Oh, but, but you see, that was their fault.
Oh, Georgie. All right.
Oh, god. Mark?
Oh, god. Oh, god.
Oh, I see. And these people are actually your parents.
Oh, I think it is. What are you saying, dad?
Oh, I'm fine.
Oh, it is so good to see you!
Oh, look.
Oh, Marky.
Oh, Mr. Watson?
Oh, right, your... chairiness.
Oh, shut up, Dorothy. Son, you've had...
Oh, that's great, Brad.
Oh, where are we going?
Oh, yeah. Mom, dad, there's something I have to tell you. I'm black.
Oh, you guys!
Oh! I can explain that.
Oh? How?
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh. And what if I have an American express gold card?
Oh. We gotta go.
Ohh!
Okay, but don't you think you're overreacting?
Okay, it's an appointment!
Okay, look. Stay here.
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay! Right. Here it is:
Okay? Okay.
Okay.
Okay. All right. On three.
Okay. Fillmore, you can take Matthews.
Okay. Friday night.
Okay. Okay, so I misplaced my license. What the hell are you gonna do, arrest me?
Okay. The truth.
Okay. They can't see me like this. Stall them.
Okay. What? Mark.
Okay. Why did the n**** wear a tux on his way to his vasectomy? Why?
Older people are going insane with anxiety about their financial futures.
On no formal charges,
On second thought, why don't we go in the kitchen?
On the inside, although I was black on the outside.
On the part of the governmental, financial...
One outstanding debt to pacific bell in the amount of 72.12.
One that is of particular concern to the black students here at the law school.
One, two wait a minute!
One. Uno.
Only shades of pink.
Oops, excuse me.
Or gets kicked out, and I'm in.
Our only black student member was taking a leave of absence.
Pardon me? Interracial relationships.
People who, as much as it pains me to say it,
Perhaps you should have taken the entire day off.
Perhaps you were aware that I serve as chairman on that committee.
Periodically, we're called upon to recommend punitive actions against a student.
Personal problems, anything,
Pets, damage, drugs, loud music
Please begin.
Please see to it that they are funny!
Please, don't feel terrible. It's nothing.
Please, please. At least give me a chance.
Please.
Please. Call me mark.
Pretty smart, huh?
Probably a lot of stuff I can't even imagine.
Promise me you wouldn't interfere if there were a half naked girl curled up on my bed.
Punitive actions, sir?
Put it up! All right.
Quarterback. You get a thousand black guys and one white guy,
Quiz you. Come on. I'm serious about this.
Realize his mistake, and probably offer to pay your tuition.
Really, nothing at all.
Remember you? Are you kidding?
Retire to the islands at 35.
Right here, right now.
Right on.
Right, George?
Right, here we go. $5,000 to a young man...
Right.
Right. I want to believe you.
Right. Sorry, Marcus. Okay! Let's go!
Right. What?
Sarah,
Sarah, don't be a martyr.
Sarah, here's a letter from your mom and your dad.
Sarah, I really care about you a lot. That's why I can't tell you the truth.
Sarah, I'm really sorry.
Sarah, listen to me. You're the smartest person in that class.
Sarah, the truth is
Sarah, wait a Se
Sarah, wait a second.
Sarah, wait a second. Oh, just leave me alone.
Sarah, what I'm trying to say to you is I'm actually white.
Sarah! Hi.
Sarah...
Sarah's coming over here to study. She'll be here any minute.
Say hi to Gordon for us.
Scientists now believe that a simple ski mask can stop the senseless spread of disease.
Senate it is, then. Great party.
Seven thousand, five hundred dollars.
Sexually compatible people can't work out their differences,
She got an a, okay? She got an a.
