I read this (prompted by the thread) - apparently she was nasty to people on the set and refused to even promo officer and the gentlemen so I think her next big movie she probably already had a contract for was her last biggie.


I heard that in Officer and a Gentlemen, Richard Gere raped her during the lovemaking scene. that while it was filming, he pushed his way in (if you kwim) and she freaked but they kept filming. she raised a stink about it, but Richard Gere was the more wanted star and they chose his side over hers. That's why she refused to promo O&G.


Omigod. If that is true--it is horrific.


I doubt that this is true. I got curious and googled the topic after reading this thread. I came up with nothing, except a picture of Winger and Gere from 2011 from an awards show where he is kissing her on the cheek. They looked friendly.

I remember Bette Davis said she thought Deborah Winger had a lot of talent and would be a big star.
