Soul Plane (2004)

Soul Plane features openly gay characters whose portrayals primarily rely on exaggerated, stereotypical mannerisms for comedic effect. Their identity is largely a source of mockery, with humor often derived from harmful stereotypes rather than offering any complex, dignified, or affirming representation of LGBTQ+ individuals or themes.

The film portrays the Jewish character, Elvis Hunkee, as an outsider and the frequent target of jokes, often playing into stereotypes about his ethnicity and perceived 'whiteness.' The narrative uses his discomfort and 'otherness' for comedic effect, reinforcing rather than subverting negative stereotypes without significant counterbalancing nuance or sympathy.
