Well this was a chaotic experience! The characters and the style are what make this one. It felt like it was purposefully meant to be chaotic because that's what the characters are experiencing. I have heard this is MUCH different than the show but curious to hear your thoughts on the movie!

Now this is the perfect way to spend a Friday night. Thank you for reacting to this classic Jen 🔥

Red Dwarf

Definitely is a place for it, but I always preferred the TV show!

Cool guys vs the "Regular Army Clowns" plus Frank & Hot Lips 💋 😋

M*A*S*H was released when I was in the Air Force (as the USAF was ramping up involvement in the Vietnam War). For some time, they refused to show this film in base theaters. The morality toward women is that of the era of the Korean War. The morality toward war is that of the era of Vietnam. Altman's greatest style is that of heavily overlapping dialog, frustrating viewers who want to hear every word. But he makes sure to allow viewers to hear the words he wants you to hear. Great movie... to me, far better than the long-haired, late feminist, Alan Alda control, with the moronic Frank Burns of the TV series. The TV show was about the late '70s into the '80s, not about 1951 or 1970.

tried to watch, I forgot how much I loathed this movie. I loved the tv show.

M*A*S*H (1972-1983) (11 seasons) was my favorite series as a teen/young adult watching later seasons as they aired and a zillion reruns of the entire series. There would be reruns on 3 different TV channels -- so we would have M*A*S*H on TV in the background. In that respect, M*A*S*H was like "The Office" or "Friends" of our generation. While a sophomore in college, I watched the final episode as it aired in early 1983. The most watched TV series finale in US history, with 106 million viewers. The episode was watched in over 60% of U.S. homes.

Jason Kaiser

One of my top 10 comedies of all time!

james repka

You forgot The Player and Short Cuts...

Noremac

I tried to watch it. All the sex stuff depressed me though, so I tapped out halfway through.

Geoff S.

The only memorable thing about the tv show for me is that I would always hear the theme playing on the tv in the other room after my parents had sent me to bed. Because of that I associate the show with things I don't want to do to this day.

Ciaran

The movie is based on a novel thats really good, the TV-series was kinda of a bad copy/sequel of the movie.

Clay F

I love that theme music. Gives me a positive feeling, even if the song is suicide being painless.

Rob Nichols

Blake was tying fishing lures.

Generally considered a good TV series. In 2013, the Writers Guild of America ranked it as the 5th-best written TV series ever and TV Guide ranked it as the 8th-greatest show of all time. In 2016, Rolling Stone ranked it as the 16th-greatest TV show. In 2023, Variety ranked M*A*S*H #24 on its list of the 100 greatest TV shows of all time.

I guess I'm one of the few people who likes the movie and TV show just about equally, though they have very different strengths and weaknesses. The TV show is less sexist and makes the characters much more sympathetic, but it can get a little too sentimental and preachy, and stylistically it's much more conventional. In the movie, the use of overlapping dialogue and the complexly staged crowd scenes give the movie a realistically chaotic touch that was really new and bold in 1970 and in many ways remains striking and original 55 years later, and the cynical, devil-may-care attitude really struck a chord with audiences tired of the Vietnam War in 1970, which is why the movie was a big hit. By the way the actor who played the small role of the priest was Rene Auberjonois, the actor who plays Odo on Deep Space Nine.

Jason Scade

The Player with Tim Robbins is essential viewing. Movie producer is targeted for harassment and stalking.

Clay F

René Auberjonois who is Father Mulcahy is also Odo in DS9.

TheNeonRabbit

Pretty clear why they went with an instrumental version of the theme for the TV series

Clay F

I love this movie. 55 years old (over half a century). It being on the AFI Top 100 is well-deserved. That guy you said looked familiar is Donald Sutherland. The Korean War was 1950-1953. I also love the TV series. Much carryover from the movie. Similarities/resemblances to the movie. Characters. Behaviors. Settings.

Marc Peterson

I was a 15 year old usher in a movie theater making $1.15/hour when this came out (1970). So I’ve seen it a couple hundred times. Still love it! Gould and Sutherland, the “pros from Dover”! And that chaotic football game, with a number of NFL pros, one of which was Eagles great Timmy Brown. One essential movie actor goes on to reprise his role in the TV series. Jen, thanks for the memories!!

Marc Peterson

Checked IMDB for some of the bit acting roles. Several NFL QBs including Hall of Famers Johnny Unitas and Fran Tarkenton, big bad Ben Davidson who got kicked out of the game, Jack Concannon, Joe Kapp and Tom Woodeschick. And who had a tiny appearance? The Italian Stallion as a baby…Sylvester Stallone! Yo, Hot Lips!!

Marc Peterson

Not to overlook Fred Williamson of KC Chiefs and Super Bowl I infamy The Hammer! He was the ringer Spearchucker.

james repka

...and Cookie's Fortune as well. Altman was the undisputed king of the big ensemble cast full of stars subservient to the story itself. Succeeded by the prince, Paul Thomas Anderson.

Todd Preble

I just watched the MASH (1970) watch along with you, and figured you'd like to know that one of the cast in the film is also in a series you are watching now, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The character Father John Mulcahy is played by Rene Auberjonois who is also Odo in Deep Space Nine. He also played recurring character in the TV series Benson as Clayton Runnymede Endicott III.

thansen

I had watched and loved the tv series since I was a kid and only later as an adult did I watch the movie. I didn't love it at first but it's one of those movies that gets better with each viewing. It has become one of my favorite movies with an incredible cast.

HeWhoLooksSkyward

The football game was meant as a metaphor for war, especially its chaotic nature, not to mention all the guys being taken from the field on stretchers.

Jeremy Nuss

It was hard for me to sit through the scenes with multiple conversations going on at once. It was like sitting in a busy restaurant, which I also don't like lol.

Ian

No! the schedule was never set in stone , it may seem like trek uploads on a Saturday but that isn't the case it's sometimes been on a Friday , sometimes Sunday even a Monday .

Marco Borromeo

Happy to see, that you're taking on another classic which barely any other reactors dare to.😌 I think there are two things which many people fail to acknowledge about this film, and that's why it might not be as popular as others from the era. (And I still think the 60ies and 70ies were packed with some of the most creative / inventive works in music and film in general..) First, this was released in 1970. Such groundbreaking times.. Socially, politically, the Vietnam war still going on, millions of people protesting.. MASH is a satire. And it lashes out against nearly everthing: Religion, common morals, the military.. At first sight, the humor displayed in it rather seems adolescent and silly, but I think also expresses the very attitude of the (younger) part of society back then: Revolting against the establishment on many different levels. The movie is supposed to take place during the Korean war. But all the gestures, language and attitudes, etc clearly indicate the contemporary conflict overshadowing everything: Vietnam. My other point is a certain perspective you need to have (or is very helpful, as I guess..) in order to understand the humor of MASH: You see it with different eyes when you have served in military by yourself. All the different kinds of people you meet there, the silly ones, the (all too) serious and stern ones, the lazy ones, the ambitioned ones, etc. - all wearing the same uniform - form a very special community. And when you are under pressure, especially under real or lethal circumstances, you need to let some steam off somehow. As serious as ypu might take the work, at times, you can't help but come up with the silliest ideas in between, resp. off duty. And there are the ones who absolute professionals and top officers but at the SAME time, can allow themselves to be silly and cocky.. And still do a good job. The command structures - quite like in many civilian areas as well of course - are sometimes an interesting thing.. the dynamics can completely change, when new people come in, for the better or the worse, and guys like Lt Col Blake (Henry) might be in charge, but in fact others run the show (and everybody knows it of course), or overambitioned guys like 'Hot Lips' or F.Burns (Duvall) get completely overrun.. I think Dir. Robert Altmann is one of these truly great but still a bit underrated directors who only partially got credit enough for his work. Having a background in mathematics, it makes quite sense that the sound and dialogue also in MASH, are often so complex and well constructed in his work. Also the high number of protagonists involved is a trademark of Altmann. I never saw the series to be honest. So I can't compare them.. But you'll discover even more details in the movie the more often you watch it.. Very well done, Jen..

She’s currently pregnant so get used to an unpredictably factor for awhile.

Thegonagle

True. But our synaptic pathways have clearly become accustomed to her usual schedule. I for one hope that everything is functioning within established parameters.

Ron

Jen, in addition to the other familiar faces mentioned by others (Tom Skerritt, Robert Duvall, Rene Oberjonois, etc.), you have recall having seen Sally Kellerman before this. She was Dr. Elizabeth Dehner in Star Trek: TOS's 2nd pilot, "Where No Man Has Gone Before." (She was the psychiatrist that Gary Mitchell called "a walking freezer unit.") And, yes, I would really enjoy your reaction to at least a couple episode of the TV show. I think you would find that interesting to see how they adapted the movie for the small screen. And since I mentioned Robert Duvall, I'd also like to shout out a couple of his movies to which I don't think you have reactions: * Apocalypse Now (1979) (I would say he is best known for his character in this movie) * THX-1138 (1971)(He's the lead in George Lucas' **first** feature film. Note: I don't think this get you a lot of views but I like this movie nonetheless. This is the kind of movie I wished George would return to after he sold Lucasfilm and said he would concentrate on making weird movies that nobody watches. This sounded like THX-1138 to me.) * Btw, Lucas' 2nd movie, American Graffiti (1973) was well received and helped him get Star Wars off the ground. This movie is definitely a lot more fun.

That was a particular style with Robert Altman . it's not for all tastes i tend to have mixed feelings on his movies M * A* S *H i enjoyed alright i grew up with the TV series , first so i kept expecting a laugh track to come on LOL!

This was a groundbreaking movie in some ways. It was really a protest against Viet Nam, but they masked it with the Korean War. In the TV show, they were 3 to 5 miles behind the lines. I'm not sure about the movie. At the lines, they have medics to stabilize people and sometimes a battalion aid station before sending them to a MASH unit. Donald Sutherland (Hawkeye) was an amazing actor. If you want to see him shine, you've GOT to see Kelly's Heroes starring Clint Eastwood and Donald Sutherland. Sally Kellerman had a singing career after acting. She wasn't very popular, though. But I have an autographed CD of hers. Did you finally figure out the thing that was special about the dentist? Not really a spoiler, but only one cast member from the movie was on the TV show.

john reed

did ya notice that the priest is ODO from DS9 . René Auberjonois
