suicide is painless

When the film began to shake aerial shots with the hypnotic "suicide is painless" theme song, I knew that this movie would definitely appeal to my appetite.

This is definitely a movie that will make you laugh, but behind the laughter, you will hear your own laughter hollow and weak. This is a movie full of plots of anarchism and nihilism. A group of doctors and nurses are doing all kinds of mischief in the battlefield hospital, knocking authority, life, death, and all the heavy things to the ground, and wantonly laughed, so that some people will call it good, and some people will be mad. angry.

The director of the film is Robert Altman with superb skills. I think he is very good at directing group-like silver films. He has always been familiar with large scenes with many characters and complicated relationships. I like this old director very much. He just won the Uncle Oscar for his lifetime achievement award this year. Another movie I love very much, Gosford Manor, was also made by him.

The perfect combination of form and content of the film is also full of ridicule. Very memorable movie.

god dammn American army!

    This irony is too cruel! If the irony of others is hidden in the words, the film of Grandpa Ultraman is simply a pear flower needle in the rainstorm.

    Haha, this is really the happiest war movie I've ever watched. There are no war scenes, anti-war thoughts are everywhere, cynical, laughing and scolding, and only Ultraman can make such a black humor drama~

MASH quotes

  • Colonel Blake: [In the mess tent. Hawkeye and Duke stroll in and help themselves] Who are those men? Friends of yours, Murrhardt?

    Capt. Murrhardt: No, sir, first time I ever seen them.

    Capt. Bandini: Maybe those are the replacements.

    Colonel Blake: Oh don't be silly. We're expecting some real sharp surgeons.

    Capt. Bandini: I guess they just got separated from their unit and are looking for something to eat.

    Colonel Blake: They got a hell of a nerve coming in here, eating our food.

    [Hawkeye and Duke sit down beside Lt. Dish]

    Duke Forrest: [Sitting beside Lt. Dish, who is speaking to her friends] I think I'm in love. Uh,

    [raises voice]

    Duke Forrest: Uh, you see, the truth is, Lieutenant, I don't have anything to do tonight. I just got in to town and, uh, well, I thought maybe you could show me around.

    Hawkeye Pierce: Captain, I think if you will notice the lieutenant's beautiful hand, she is definitely married.

    Colonel Blake: Well I'm the commanding officer and I'm going to get to the bottom of this.

    Capt. Murrhardt: Boy, Bandini, they're eating in here because they want to.

  • Trapper John: [In O.R] Dish, let me have a long needle holder.

    Duke Forrest: [Mulcahy is performing the last rites on a casualty] Hey, Dago! Dago! Dago, I want you over here to hold this retraction. Now! Please, come on, now!

    Father John Patrick 'Dago Red' Mulcahy: Sorry, I'm coming.

    Hawkeye Pierce: Hi, Dago.

    Duke Forrest: I'm sorry, Dago, but this man is still alive and that other man is dead, and that's a fact. Can you hold it with two fingers, Dago? Hell... Where the hell... Do ya see it?
