Tom Cruise plays Capt. Pete “Maverick” Mitchell in “Top Gun: Maverick.” Suddenly 2022 is feeling a lot like 1986. fRussian aggression. Chernobyl. Cold War echoes. The Celtics in a possible finals run. DeLorean reincarnated. A new “Top Gun” movie — finally.
Harold Faltermeyer’s “Top Gun Anthem” with the synthesized gong, base and keyboards set against radio chatter and jet noise reeled me in. Silhouetted crewmen flash hand signals and prepare F-14s for flight. The sky glows orange and gray. Steam rises from the flight deck. Catapults and cables. Ocean and afterburners. Then the hard shift to the guitars of Kenny Loggins’ “Danger Zone.”
Many military people, including Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Charles “CQ” Brown Jr., a San Antonio native, cite the film’s influence in their lives. Yes, “Top Gun” is an adventure story full of competition, romance, intrigue and teamwork that pits pilots against their machines, nature and enemy jets with life-or-death consequences.As a kid, I didn’t see this truth. That’s how the best propaganda works. The targets should not realize they’re being influenced.In these days of misinformation from Russia’s war in Ukraine, the idea of propaganda resonates.
