Para Elo y Pato (a quienes prometí buscar el texto): Tarantino hace
el papel de Sid en una fiesta, y es quien escribió este diálogo
totalmente descolgado del resto de la película, pero que vale más
que todo lo demás.


Sleep with Me (1994)

Sid: You want subversion on a massive level. You know what one of
the greatest fucking scripts ever written in the history of
Hollywood is? Top Gun.

Duane: Oh, come on.

Sid: Top Gun is fucking great. What is Top Gun? You think it's a
story about a bunch of fighter pilots.

Duane: It's about a bunch of guys waving their dicks around.

Sid: It is a story about a man's struggle with his own
homosexuality. It is! That is what Top Gun is about, man. You've got
Maverick, all right? He's on the edge, man. He's right on the
fucking line, all right? And you've got Iceman, and all his crew.
They're gay, they represent the gay man, all right? And they're
saying, go, go the gay way, go the gay way. He could go both ways.

Duane: What about Kelly McGillis?

Sid: Kelly McGillis, she's heterosexuality. She's saying: no, no,
no, no, no, no, go the normal way, play by the rules, go the normal
way. They're saying no, go the gay way, be the gay way, go for the
gay way, all right? That is what's going on throughout that whole
movie... He goes to her house, all right? It looks like they're
going to have sex, you know, they're just kind of sitting back, he's
takin' a shower and everything. They don't have sex. He gets on the
motorcycle, drives away. She's like, "What the fuck, what the fuck
is going on here?" Next scene, next scene you see her, she's in the
elevator, she is dressed like a guy. She's got the cap on, she's got
the aviator glasses, she's wearing the same jacket that the Iceman
wears. She is, okay, this is how I gotta get this guy, this guy's
going towards the gay way, I gotta bring him back, I gotta bring him
back from the gay way, so I'll do that through subterfuge, I'm gonna
dress like a man. All right? That is how she approaches it. Okay,
now let me just ask you - I'm gonna digress for two seconds here. I
met this girl Amy here, she's like floating around here and
everything. Now, she just got divorced, right? All right, but the
REAL ending of the movie is when they fight the MIGs at the end, all
right? Because he has passed over into the gay way. They are this
gay fighting fucking force, all right? And they're beating the
Russians, the gays are beating the Russians. And it's over, and they
fucking land, and Iceman's been trying to get Maverick the entire
time, and finally, he's got him, all right? And what is the last
fucking line that they have together? They're all hugging and
kissing and happy with each other, and Ice comes up to Maverick, and
he says, "Man, you can ride my tail, anytime!" And what does
Maverick say? "You can ride mine!" Swordfight! Swordfight! Fuckin'
A, man!
