No - not at all. -
When I saw "Top Gun", back in the distant days of my youth, I thought something didn't compute between her and Tom Cruise. I thought it was because Tom Cruise smiled like he was in a toothpaste commercial.
Thus my response to this is "Oh, that's why."-
I don't know if anyone remembers her in the movie silent witness or was it just the witness. With Harrison ford. My age is showing -
I don't understand this idea at all. There are plenty of films with two heterosexual romantic leads and no chemistry and there are also films with a homosexual actor playing a romantic role with a member of the opposite sex where there is plenty of chemistry.
This apparent issue never seems to crop up when heterosexual actors are asked to play gay people.
Rupert Everett is convinced that coming out ruined his career...I guess he's right.

I guess this is news in this day and age?! -
She was great in 'The Accused' -
I believe she was also a rape victim
In 1982, McGillis was assaulted and raped in her home by the escaped rapist Leroy Johnson after McGillis came home from work.

o that's terrible -I didn't know that. The same kind of thing happened to Nancy Grace in a motel.
-
Yeah so was country and western singer Tammy Wynette I heard.
-
-
Who?-
Go to IMDB.com and look her up
-
Never saw Top Gun, never regretted it.
-
-
She's not so hot. No great loss.-
What a nasty thing to say
-
-
As long as she is happy, that's cool! -
the more people come out, the better the world becomes. less lies going around. -
Not a terribly big deal, though my husband may like her even more now. -
Is she the Scientologist that converts Tom Cruise first place? -
I must have cared a little because I entered the thread. But, no, not really. -
Kelly McGillis along with Timothy Hutton and Maureen Stapleton starred in one of my favorite movies of all time. She was (is) a great actress.
Made In Heaven
Review From Amazon
In Made in Heaven, Timothy Hutton plays a young guy in 1946 who's just been dumped by his girl and decides to go to California. On his way, he rescues a family from a car that's driven into a lake--and drowns in the process. Of course, he finds himself in Heaven, and there he meets Kelly McGillis, a soul who's never been born on Earth. The two fall in love. Just as they're about to get married--just for the fun of it, since by the rules of Heaven they're already married--McGillis gets sent to Earth to be born. Hutton pleads with Emmett, a figure who may or may not be God, who finally agrees to give Hutton 30 years on Earth to find her and continue their love. This 1987 Alan Rudolph film teeters on the edge of absolute cheesiness and steps over that edge at moments, but mostly it miraculously maintains a delicate, sweet, and affecting tone. McGillis is good, but Hutton is superb, demonstrating an honest charisma that makes him engaging even when he's being a jerk. The depiction of Heaven avoids the patronizing, overdone joyfulness that too many movies fall into. Though the idea sounds like pure saccharine, Made in Heaven consistently sidesteps the obvious and comes up with something genuine. Rudolph is a prolific but erratic director (his stronger movies include Choose Me, Trouble in Mind, The Moderns, and Afterglow), but this is one of the ones worth seeing. Made in Heaven features Debra Winger and an uncredited Ellen Barkin, as well as cameos by rock stars Neil Young, Ric Ocasek, and Tom Petty. -
Kelly is a wonderful addition to our community.
-
She was always part of our community, she just kept it under wraps, unsuccessfully
-
the only question I have is: did liplocking Tom Cruise cause her to go gay?
(if my comment makes you mad, please make sure your sense of humor is set to the "on" position")-
wow is that offensive.
(saying it's supposed to be a joke doesn't stop it being offensive) -
if it offended you then I'm sorry it did.
-
People actually don't just 'go gay' LOL. And besides, Tom Cruise is gay so wouldn't that have made her go straight?
-
that's what my son said too.
-
HA HA HA isn't it funny when people are gay. So funny, that saying someone is gay when they aren't is really funny. HA HA HA.
-
All the gays I know ARE fun and funny. And it's no secret that Tom Cruise is gay.
-
is that why he's married to woman and has been married to two women before this?
"All the gays I know ARE fun and funny" is that our version of "some of my best friends are gay"? -
Shhh ... Doll, don't say it so loud. Wouldn't want Tom Cruise to find out about that! -
ok Friday13 let's keep it between you and me! As they say "D'Nile ain't just a river in Egypt!"
-
Hey Doll, I think Siuil is calling you a gaybasher -
psst cooking asshole stop trying to stir up trouble - and between you and me - she has no idea who she is talking to or what she is talking about. I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person!
-
Locking lips with Tom Cruise
How could such an innocent comment generate such angry responses
Thanks for starting a real discussion Floormodel -
Wake me up when Tom Cruise comes out.
-
-
Who cares about Kelly McGillis? And the fact that she's gay is not news at all - she admitted this publicly years ago.-
I do not know who she even is and I have never seen top gun
-
-
Has-been.
-
I think she was also in the Harrison Ford movie about solving a murder in Amish country? -
Yeah, that was made around the turn of the century. It might even be a silent film!
-
ROFL! Isn't Harrison Ford a gay?
-

-
-

-

-
-

-
