Abstract | A prime example of militarism in late Cold War America, Top Gun glamorizes the lives, service, and sacrifice of U.S. Naval Aviators. Lt. Pete Mitchell (a.k.a. Maverick) and his friend Lt. Nick Bradshaw (a.k.a. Goose) attend the Navy's prestigious TOPGUN program, but their reckless bravado clashes with protocol, a love affair and a tragic loss force Maverick to see that there is more to life than flying. Selected by the United States Library of Congress in 2015 for preservation in the National Film Registry finding it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." |
