Perfect personality, healthy attitude towards life!

The wonderful cold joke dialogue and ingenious plot design from beginning to end are amazing. For those with a little English level, this film will look more enjoyable. Fortunately, I found this masterpiece from the 70s. I don't think this is a so-called anti-war black humor film. The Korean Field Hospital is just a background. Three medically skilled guys, confident and humorous, with a sense of justice, advocating truth, despising and mocking hypocrisy. The film conveys a healthy, true, positive, optimistic and humorous attitude towards life. The two doctors have perfect personality charm. Their favorite character is the mustache "Girl Killer" and the young Sutherland's "Eagle Eye". Not bad, plus the chattering hospital radio station, the very cute dean, and which "hot lips" are all outstanding. The director is a master, not revealing, and the multi-dimensional character plot scene structure is easy to control. It looks like a funny film, but the thought content expressed is quite deep. It is incomparable to ordinary foolish and silly films! The only thing that I feel is too much. Dizziness from repeated surgery scenes. In addition, a large number of rapidly overlapping dialogues, for people with an average E level like me, will miss a lot of delicately designed picture details because of staring at the subtitles.
