Overview

MASH juxtaposes gory operating room procedures with anti-establishment humor; occasionally these two elements co-exist within the same shot. An anti-establishment view or belief is one which stands in opposition to the conventional social political and economic principles of a society For example, Hawkeye is amputating a patient's leg and asks a nurse to scratch his nose, all while the sound of the saw cutting the bone is audible. The plot is episodic, and is marked by Altman's trademark editing style, in which each scene contains several simultaneous or overlapping conversations, as well as his frequent use of zooms. ZOOM was an American Educational Television show, created almost entirely by Children, which aired on PBS from

Synopsis

The film's overall theme seems to be that of ordinary decent people trying to do a job under very trying circumstances. This brings out both the best and the worst in them. The film has a disjointed, episodic feel; much of the dialogue was improvised during shooting. The film's episodic nature means that there is no single plot beyond it featuring the lives of those assigned to the 4077th. It can be subdivided into a number of significant episodes:

Some Really Sharp Surgeons

The 4077th is in need of replacements, and are assigned two - Captain "Hawkeye" Pierce (Sutherland) and Captain "Duke" Forrest. Captain Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce is a Fictional character and lead protagonist in the M*A*S*H novels, film, and Capt Augustus Bedford "Duke" Forrest is a fictional character from the ''M*A*S*H'' novels and film. On their arrival it becomes clear that they are rebellious, womanising mischief-makers and rule-breakers (they arrive having "borrowed" a Jeep, and immediately begin flirting with the nursing staff), but are also good at their jobs. Jeep is an Automobile Marque (and registered trademark of Chrysler. They immediately clash with Major Frank Burns (Duvall), who is both a religious zealot and an inferior surgeon. Major Franklin Delano Marion "Frank" Burns is a fictional character in the M*A*S*H film and television series. Hawkeye and Duke put pressure on Lt Colonel Henry Blake (Bowen), the unit's CO, to have Burns removed from their tent. Lieutenant Colonel Henry Braymore Blake is a Fictional character introduced in the 1968 novel M*A*S*H, written by H At the same time, they get him to apply to have a specialist thoracic surgeon assigned to the 4077th. Thoracic surgery is the field of Medicine involved in the surgical treatment of Diseases affecting organs inside the Thorax (the chest excluding

The New Chest Cutter

The mysterious new thoracic surgeon arrives, and gives away little about who he is or where he's from; Hawkeye, though, is convinced he has seen the new man somewhere before. However, he proves himself as a highly skilled surgeon, before an impromptu football game causes Hawkeye to remember a college football game he played in where he scored the only touchdown by intercepting a pass from the opposing quarterback, the new thoracic surgeon, Captain "Trapper" John McIntyre (Gould). College football is American football played by teams of student athletes fielded by American universities, Colleges and military academies A touchdown is the primary method of scoring in American and Canadian football. Quarterback ( QB) is a position in American and Canadian football. For the Scottish radiologist see John Macintyre. For the American actor see John McIntire.

The New Chief Nurse

Major Margaret Houlihan (Kellerman), the newly assigned chief nurse of the camp, arrives to be greeted by Henry Blake (who mistakenly refers to her as "O'Houlihan" several times). Major Margaret J "Hot Lips" Houlihan is a Fictional Nurse who always drinks never smokes first created in the book M*A*S*H A Novel About Three At the same time, in the post-op ward, Trapper observes Frank Burns blaming Private Boone the orderly for a patient's death when he doesn't get to Burns in time with a cardiac needle. During Houlihan's tour of the camp, Trapper confronts Burns and punches him. Doing this in front of the new chief nurse means Henry cannot yet appoint Trapper as the new chief surgeon.

"Kiss My Hot Lips"

While Henry is away visiting General Hammond at the 325th Evac Hospital, the camp, led by Trapper, lets loose which causes Burns and Houlihan to write a report on the unmilitary goings-on. While doing this, they give in to their passions and engage in a sexual encounter. However, unbeknownst to them, this is broadcast over the PA system and leads to Houlihan gaining her nickname "Hot Lips". They are forced to end this when they realize the whole camp can hear them. The following day, Hawkeye taunts Burns about the encounter, so much so to the point that Burns leaps across the mess table to attack him. This leads to Burns' being shipped out to a psychiatric ward.

"Suicide Is Painless"

"Dago Red" (Auberjonois), the camp's chaplain, tells Hawkeye of a problem that he has heard in confession - without divulging the actual details, Hawkeye is made aware of the severity of the problem. John Patrick Francis Mulcahy, commonly called Father Mulcahy, is a principal character from the Film M*A*S*H, played by Rene Auberjonois The confession of one's Sins is a religious practice important to many faiths e "Painless Pole" Waldowski (Schuck), the "best equipped dentist in the army", has suffered a "lack of performance" with a visiting nurse and now believes that he has latent homosexual tendencies, so he decides to commit suicide. Homosexuality refers to sexual behavior with or attraction to people of the same sex or to a Homosexual orientation. Hawkeye, Trapper and Duke come up with a plan to use the "black capsule" (a fictitious, fast-acting poison); at an impromptu last supper, Painless takes the capsule and lies down in a coffin to the strains of "Suicide Is Painless. In the Christian Gospels the Last Supper (also called the Lord's Supper or Mystical Supper) was the last meal Jesus shared with his "Suicide Is Painless" is a song written by Johnny Mandel (music and Mike Altman ( Lyrics) which is best known for being featured as the " Hawkeye then persuades Lt "Dish" Schneider (Pflug), one of the nurses who is returning to the US the following day, to spend the night with Painless, thus curing him of his problems. Lt Maria "Dish" Schneider was a Fictional character played by Jo Ann Pflug in the film MASH, and (as Lt

A Natural Blonde

During a discussion, Duke announces that he is partial to blondes, which Hawkeye responds to by claiming his friend has a thing for Hot Lips. Duke counters by suggesting she isn't even a natural blonde and bets $20 with Hawkeye to find out. Together, the boys come up with a scheme - when the nurses are all going to use the showers, each of them is waylaid except Hot Lips. Then, on cue, the flap covering the showers is lifted exposing Hot Lips naked to the world.

"The Pros from Dover"

Ho-Jon, a local teenager who works in the camp, is drafted into the South Korean army. Ho-Jon is a Fictional character in M*A*S*H. He works as a Houseboy in "The Swamp" at MASH 4077th and sometimes as a medical assistant Hawkeye drives him to the induction center in Seoul for his physical, where he is found to have high blood pressure and a rapid heartbeat. The examining doctor refuses to disqualify Ho-Jon, believing that he may have taken some medicine to induce these symptoms, and Hawkeye reluctantly lets him go.

Back in camp, Trapper is requested to proceed to Kokura, Japan to operate on the GI son of a US Congressman who has been injured in training. is an ancient Castle town and the center of Kitakyūshū, Japan, guarding via its suburb Moji, the Straits of Shimonoseki between Honshū For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Japan topics. The United States House of Representatives is one of the two chambers of the United States Congress; the other is the Senate. Seeing an opportunity to get some golf on the quality courses, he takes Hawkeye to assist. The two barge into the hospital and order the young man into surgery within the hour. With Hawkeye's old friend "Me Lay" Marston as the anaesthetist, they quickly finish the surgery, but on the way out of the hospital they are cornered by the MPs, who take them to the hospital's commander, Colonel Merrill. An anaesthetist ( English) or anesthesiologist ( US English) also "anaesthesiologist" is a medical doctor trained to administer Military police ( MPs) are normally the Police of a Military Organization. Reminding the Colonel that "the Pros from Dover" have bailed him out of a potential situation with the Congressman's son, any threats that Merrill could make are effectively nullified.

While recuperating at the hospital/whorehouse that Me Lay moonlights at as a doctor, Hawkeye and Trapper come across a Japanese/American baby with a serious medical problem. Taking advantage of their status as "the Pros from Dover", they go to the military hospital to operate, but are almost stopped by Merrill. However, the three anesthetize him and then blackmail the Colonel by taking pictures of him with one of the prostitutes. Prostitution is the act of performing Sexual activity in exchange for Money.

On their return from Japan, Hawkeye and Trapper immediately go into surgery for several hours. Once they have finished, and eager to get some sleep, they find that Duke has locked up the tent - they then observe him sneaking Hot Lips out, making it clear that Duke was not as averse to the chief nurse as he claimed.

The Football Game

On a visit to the 4077th, General Hammond shares a drink with Hawkeye, Trapper and Duke and suggests that their two units play a "friendly" football game, with some money thrown into a pot to make bets ($5,000 or $6,000). American football, known in the United States and Canada simply as football, is a competitive Team sport known for mixing strategy with Seeing an opportunity to make some money, Hawkeye comes up with a plan. First, they get Henry to apply for a specialist neurosurgeon, Dr Oliver Harmon Jones, who is more commonly known as "Spearchucker" Jones, and who once played professional football for the San Francisco 49ers. Neurosurgery is the surgical discipline focused on treating those central, Peripheral nervous system and spinal column diseases amenable to surgical Captain Oliver Harmon "Spearchucker" Jones or Captain Oliver Wendell "Spearchucker" Jones was a surgeon in the movie and television series The San Francisco 49ers are a professional American football team Then, Hawkeye's plan calls for them to bet half their money up front and for Spearchucker to be left out of the first half, allowing the opposition to rack up some points and get confident enough to offer good odds to bet the rest of the money, then bringing in the ringer for the second half. The game goes down to the last play, which is described as "semi-legal", and calls for the ball to be returned from the Quarterback (Trapper) to the Center (Vollmer); while everyone runs after the phantom ball, Vollmer runs unobserved with the ball to score the winning touchdown, making the 4077th $5,000 in the process. Center ( C) is a position in American football and Canadian football ( spelled centre in Canadian English)

Not long after the football game, Hawkeye and Duke receive their discharge orders and begin their journey home in the same Jeep they arrived in.

Cast

Because of the number of unknown actors Altman had cast, after the established stars, the opening credits are entirely "Introducing. . . "

Gary Burghoff was the only member of the movie cast to become a regular on the television series. M*A*S*H was a Medical drama / Black comedy produced by 20th Television Fox for CBS. However, other actors did appear in both. G. Wood, who played General Hammond, also appeared in three episodes of the series. George Wood ( December 31, 1919 – July 24, 2000) was an American film and television actor. Timothy Brown had different roles in the film (Cpl. Thomas Allen Brown (born May 24, 1937 in Richmond Indiana) (aka "Tim" "Timmy" "Timothy" "Timothy Luther" Judson) and, for a brief time, the series ("Spearchucker" Jones). Corey Fischer played Capt. Corey Fischer, born in 1945 in Los Angeles received a BA in French and Theatre Arts from UCLA Bandini in the film and played the guitar-playing dentist Cardozo in the television episode "5 O'Clock Charlie. "

Fred Williamson, who portrays "Spearchucker" Jones—a neurosurgeon who played professional football before being drafted into the Army—actually played for the Steelers, Raiders, and Chiefs. Fred “The Hammer” Williamson (born March 5, 1938) is an American actor architect and former professional football player a star defensive back in In the film's football sequence, he appears anachronistically wearing white football shoes. (Football players did not wear white shoes until Joe Namath sported them in the late 1960s. Joseph William Namath (born May 31 1943, Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania) also known as Broadway Joe or Joe Willie, is a former ) Johnny Unitas appears in one shot at the end of the football game taking a hit off of a joint. John Constantine "Johnny" Unitas ( May 7, 1933 &ndash September 11, 2002) nicknamed The Golden Arm and often called Joint is slang for a Cigarette rolled using cannabis. Usually Rolling papers (mostly made by subsidiaries of major tobacco Likewise, Timothy Brown had a real-life career with the Packers, Eagles, and Colts.

Production

The screenplay is extremely different from the original novel; in the DVD audio commentary, Altman refers to the novel as "pretty terrible" and possibly "racist" — the major black character in the movie has the nickname "Spearchucker". DVD-Audio (commonly abbreviated as DVD-A) is a digital format for delivering very High-fidelity audio content on a DVD. He claims that even Lardner's screenplay was used only as a springboard. However the screenplay itself reveals that while there is some ad-libbing in the film, and although Altman moved major sequences around, most sequences are in the screenplay. The main deletion is a subplot of Ho-Jon's return to the 4077th - as a casualty. When Radar steals blood from Henry, it is for Ho-Jon's operation under Trapper & Hawkeye's scalpels. When the surgeons are playing poker after the football game, they are resolutely ignoring a dead body being driven away - Ho-Jon's body. The main deviation from the script is trimming much of the dialogue.

The filming process was difficult due to tensions between the director and his cast. Donald Sutherland has stated that he was the only member of the principal cast and crew not using drugs during the filming. Donald McNicol Sutherland OC (born July 17, 1935) is a Canadian Actor with a film career spanning over 50 years During principal photography, Sutherland and Elliott Gould spent a third of their time trying to get Robert Altman fired;[1] Altman, relatively new to the filmmaking establishment, at that time lacked the credentials to justify his unorthodox filmmaking process, and had a history of preferring to lack employment than to create a product lacking in quality. See also Filmmaking Principal photography is the phase of Film production in which the movie is actually shot as distinct from Pre-production Elliott Gould (born August 29, 1938) is an Academy Award -nominated American actor Robert Bernard Altman (February 20 1925 – November 20 2006 was an American Film director known for making films that are highly naturalistic, but with [2] Altman: "I had practice working for people who don't care about quality, and I learned how to sneak it in. " [3] Altman later commented that if he had known about Gould and Sutherland, he would have resigned. [4] Gould later sent a letter of apology and Altman used him in some of his later works, but he never worked with Sutherland again.

There were only a few uses of the speaker and announcements in the original cut. When Altman realized he needed more structure to his largely episodic film, editor Danford Greene suggested using more speaker/announcements to frame different episodes of the story. Greene took a 2nd unit crew and filmed additional shots of the speakers. On the same night when these scenes were shot, American astronauts landed on the moon. An astronaut or cosmonaut (космона́вт) is a person trained [5]

Music

MASH features the song "Suicide is Painless", with music by Johnny Mandel and lyrics by Mike Altman, the director's 14-year-old son. "Suicide Is Painless" is a song written by Johnny Mandel (music and Mike Altman ( Lyrics) which is best known for being featured as the Johnny Mandel (born 23 November, 1925 in New York) is an American Composer and arranger of popular songs Film music Mike Altman (born 1955 is the son of Film director Robert Altman and is best known for writing the Lyrics to " Suicide Is Painless " Ten years after the film's release, the song reached number one in the UK charts.

Controversies

A caption that mentions the Korean setting was added, during production, to the beginning of the film,[6] at the request of 20th Century Fox studios. [7] The Korean War is explicitly referenced in announcements on the camp Public Address system[8] and during a radio announcement that plays while Hawkeye and Trapper are putting in Col. A public address or " PA " system is an electronic amplification system with a mixer, Amplifier and Loudspeakers used to Merrill's office.

In his director's commentary on the DVD release, Altman says that MASH was the first major studio film to use the word "fuck" in its dialogue. DVD (also known as " Digital Versatile Disc " or " Digital Video Disc " - see Etymology)is Fuck is an English Word that as a Verb, means "to have Sexual intercourse " The word is spoken during the football game near the end of the film by "Painless Pole" when he says to the opposing football player, "All right bud, your fucking head is coming right off!" The actor (John Schuck) has said in various interviews that Altman encouraged ad libbing during the shoots, and that particular statement made it into the film without a second thought. John Schuck (born February 4, 1940) is an American Actor, primarily in stage, Movies and Television. Interestingly, the offending word was not bleeped out during a late-night broadcast of the film on ABC in 1985; subsequent broadcasts of the film on network television have the word removed altogether.
