    If it’s about a romance during wartime, it is both a romance and a war movie, just as Kelly’s Heroes is a heist film, a war movie, and a comedy a rolled into one. If it’s about German terrorists taking over a Christmas party and being thwarted with a lot of action by a cop, it’s a Christmas movie, a cop movie, and an action movie.

    And Top Gun is a romance movie, a gay romance movie. Who can forget “playing with the boys?” (Not passing judgement, if Mavrick got Goose’s goose that’s between them and Iceman!)
