"to what?"
"frankly, your tone of voice."
i watched soul man twice at the cinema when it came out; i loved it to bits.
i thought the movie was warm and funny and dealt with a difficult subject in an imaginative and sincere way.
i found c thomas very likeable and i thought his relationship with rae dawn chong and her young son was believable and natural. james earl jones was fantastic too.
my fave thing about the movie is ayre gross. i loved him in coupe de ville and on ellen and he's excellent here as mark's smart-alec best friend gordo. the scene where he has to defend mark in court is so funny.
