CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Yossarian (Alan Arkin) defies orders by refusing to bomb innocent civilians.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Director Mike Nichols and writer-actor Buck Henry followed their enormous hit The Graduate (1967) with this timely adaptation of Joseph Heller's satiric antiwar novel. Haunted by the death of a young gunner, all-too-sane Capt. Yossarian (Alan Arkin) wants out of the rest of his WW II bombing missions, but publicity-obsessed commander Colonel Cathcart (Martin Balsam) and his yes man, Colonel Korn (Henry), keep raising the number of missions that Yossarian and his comrades are required to fly. After Doc Daneeka (Jack Gilford) tells Yossarian that he cannot declare him insane if Yossarian knows that it's insane to keep flying, Yossarian tries to play crazy by, among other things, showing up nude in front of despotic General Dreedle (Orson Welles). As all of Yossarian's initially even-keeled friends, such as Nately (Art Garfunkel) and Dobbs (Martin Sheen), genuinely lose their heads, and the troop's supplies are bartered away for profit by the ultra-entrepreneurial Milo Minderbinder (Jon Voight), Yossarian realizes that the whole system has lost it, and he can either play along or jump ship. Though not about Vietnam, Catch-22's ludicrous military machinations directly evoked its contemporary context in the Vietnam era. Cathcart and Dreedle care more about the appearance of power than about victory, and Milo cares for money above all, as the complex narrative structure of Yossarian's flashbacks renders the escalating events appropriately surreal. Confident that the combination of a hot director and a popular, culturally relevant novel would spell blockbuster, Paramount spent a great deal of money on Catch-22, but it wound up getting trumped by another 1970 antiwar farce: Robert Altman's MASH. With audiences opting for Altman's casual Korean War iconoclasm over Nichols' more polished symbolism, the highly anticipated Catch-22 flopped, although the New York Film Critics Circle did acknowledge Arkin and Nichols. Despite this reception, Catch-22's ensemble cast and pungent sensibility effectively underline the insanity of war, Vietnam and otherwise.

Having served 8 years in the army,including one tour in Nam, I have to say that movie isn't as crazy as you might think.
You're right, and I think anyone who served, and read the book, would agree with you.
So said my father who served in Italy in the American Field Service with the British 8th.
When people ask why I left the Marines, I usually say "the minute Catch-22 quit being a comedy about military life and became a documentary of it, I knew it was time to be done"
I defy anyone to find even ONE veteran who can watch this movie, or read the book, and with complete genuineness say, "I don't get it."
I forget the name of the critic but the book of Catch 22 was described as "How the World might appear to someone who was dangerously sane."
😶
Consider that the film was released only some 25 years after the depicted events,
and now it is 52 years since the film's release.
I saw it in 1970 on it's release. As an impressionable 21 yr old, walking in of the street, not knowing anything about it.
That opening timelapse sunrise sequence on the large Panavision screen, had me mesmerized from the start.
The shot of those bombers taxing and taking off, followed by that long single take tracking shot, convinced me I wanted
to be a Cinematographer. It totally blew me away, then I read the book.
This series was made in the 70s?
@@miscellaneousz2681 This is a major feature film, NOT a series, was released in 1970.
@@SergeGolikov Right thanks
This is one of my favorite movies of all time and typical of the era, so many great films, the year 1970 had so many, I was only 9 yrs old but saw Darker Than Amber with Rod Taylor at the Drive-In as well as House Of Dark Shadows & Beneath The Planet Of The Apes & also No Blade Of Grass, Parents usually took me with them and I watched every moment as a movie buff, and yes the cinematography & color was something to behold. This particular movie deserves the special edition Blu Ray treatment but nothing to date, just dvd.
I love Taxiing in my Cab . lol
My dad flew bombers for the RAF in World War Two. He had to fly over the ocean looking for submarines. He said that sometimes they couldn’t tell if they were looking at a submarine or whale and they sometimes bombed whales
Same with sonar
how unfortunate, hats off to your father though
Your father Bombed whales, so he destroyed Cardiff.
@@Lupinthe3rd. haha 😆
@@Lupinthe3rd. No, no...Cardiff annoyingly still persists.
Read that in Orson's voice. It's 115% funnier.
The interesting thing is that Yossarians question actually was about to be answered by Major Danby during the briefing scene, but the men were to distracted by the charms of General Dreedles secretary to pay any attention to him.
In Vietnam we called in fire missions on things that weren't there and than called in body counts for hitting the things that weren't there. Sometimes we called in body counts without fire missions. Bless those pilots when we were in the field, they saved our buts many times.
This is fascinating to me. I am researching the Vietnam War, just because I am interested. If you have a moment can you explain why they would have called a fire mission for something that isn't there?
@@azyryn598If I had to guess, some sort of advanced sham operation. Emergent behavior from poorly thought-out incentives and policies.
Looking back, 52 years ago, the special effects for that bombing run were great. That was a fantastic, how they had you looking into the aircraft from the front. One thing, though, high-ranking officers almost never sat in the back of jeeps. Those so-called seats were terrible. The general should've been in the front seat and his aide in the back. On the other hand, it would've made filming the colonel and his aide running along behind harder. Sometimes you have to sacrifice unimportant accuracies to make a scene work.
The Jeep was on a float as were the "running" actors, treading time, that's how they did it, it's on the DVD extras.
The only thing missing from the effects is the upwards jolt of the aircraft as it instantly became thousands of pounds lighter.
I read the novel and then saw the film as soon as it came out, 1970. I thought the film caught the spirit and atmosphere of the book brilliantly. Great casting, especially Jon Voight as Milo Minderbinder. He caught the mindset of the unscrupulous entrepreneur/hustler wonderfully--profit comes first, nothing else matters.
I thought Jon Woight was the wrong actor for the role. Everyone else was well cast. But not him.
I think the mini series they just did was awful
@Vurbanowicz.......I too read 'Catch 22' [several times] and despite the fact that this is an exceptional film - I realised that no matter how good a cinematic version was, it would never ever do justice to Heller's masterpiece. I was right.
As with a Cormac McCarthy novel, it is almost impossible to translate Heller's written word onto the big screen. Film simply cannot capture the profound irony and pathos of Heller's groundbreaking book - although it is an excellent attempt.
@thesoultwins72 did you have flies in your eyes when you were watching this?
Yes, too many little things in this book and too many emotions and ironic moments.
It's hard enough with a novel that moves in a straight line to make it into a book
One of my favorite war film set of scenes.. Alan rips this and a classic follow up with Wells and Balsam.. The cast is iconic for its time and this was considered a protest war film. I saw this in downtown Manhattan, a few days after its release (with my father.. he wanted to see it) and was considered one of the most realistic films depicting the war in its day.
LOVE this movie! Also love the name of the General, "Dweedle"! Alan Arkin makes this movie great.......
Dreedle. Gen Dreedle.
That mispronunciation may seem like a black eye at first, but it's a feather in your cap with General Peckem
There's some poor Italian fisherman out there, "Oh, look! Planes!" and then "What are they-AUGGGGGGH!"
Suddenly, fish genocide :|
@@vtr0104 NOT THE FISHES!!!
Lots of dead fish to pickup
i remember renting this movie ... as a what the hell give it a whirl... loved it then... time to watch again. greatly under rated film
Be kind
Rewind
Amazing footage of that bomber with actors at the controls instead of the real aircrew. No digital effects back then. Real plane to plane filming
the book was friggin awesome and i encourage everyone to give it a read.
Don't know why it stuck with me but in the book Hungry Joe was known to "Dum-dum" his .45 Colt rounds and shoot mice in his tent.... That and how how howled all the time...Minor detail the movie left out...
One of the actors is Arthur Garfunkel, from the duo Simon and Garfunkel, he was actor too, I believe he is the blond pilote
Hello Darkness, my old friend
I had a friend in the Marines who would call in artillery on Hillside in Vietnam just so they could watch the explosions. Like an expensive fireworks show
The aerial director, Johnny Jordan, refused to wear a safety harness and died when he fell out through the waist gun opening while filming bomber formations over the ocean.
Funny, I heard this was a brilliant rear screen projection example.
@@SergeGolikov What the hell does your statement have to do with the fact that the man fell from the plane at altitude?
@@davidkeeton6716 You are clueless!
@@SergeGolikov It is, but Johnny Jordan also fell to his death while filming aerial sequences on this movie. The planes in the rear projection footage are real planes and were filmed for this production.
@@peacemaster8117 I don't doubt nor dispute that. My limited knowledge was that a Helicopter camera crew was killed during production.
Alan Arkin is always great.
Notice the position of Art Garfunkel in the RIGHT hand seat instead of the LEFT. The right seat is the actual command pilot's seat, and you never get a good look at who sits in the left seat.
Edit; Oppps! Let's correct that; the command pilot's seat is on the LEFT, not the right. The right seat is where the copilot sits.
So that really was Art Garfunkel.
@@ewanday5015 Yes. The movie had an amazing cast.
what amazes me about ww2 was the amount of bombers in a fleet or raid. i means hundreds...the kind and amount of ordnance they dropped must have caused so much devastation. 100 bombers dropping 50 bombs...
Or 700 > 900 heavy bombers on one target.
The US dropped more bombs over Vietnam than all parts dropped during WW2.
actually the hundred bomber raids were extremely rare. Also I think the most amount of bombs a B-17 could carry would be about 20, and that's assuming it's carrying the lightest available. And these are B-25's which could carry maybe half that payload
@@warhawk9566 By 1944, 100 four engine bomber raids were rare - they were typically of at least 250 or more. One hundred unescorted heavy bombers in a daylight raid would be too easy a target for Luftwaffe fighters.
The typical bomb dropped by American bombers was the 500 pound demolition bomb, which didn't do serious damage to heavy machinery, but could damage structures and light equipment. Incideraries were also dropped.
Bomb loads for B-25s depended on the target being attacked and the range to target. Fuel tanks could be added in exchange for bomb load to a certain extent. On low level ship attacks, the typical load would be 2 to 3,000 lbs of 500 lb GP bombs. Then there were also parafrags, incideraries, and regular fragmentation bombs.
Just five B52 bombers could drop as many bombs as One Hundred of those B25 Mitchell bombers.
In the Gulf War the Iraqis greatest concern was the B52 strikes that could drop more bombs than the largest bombing missions of WW2 and do it around the clock day after day for weeks.
They made great objections they weren't asked to surrender sooner.
The movie and the book are awesome. They are great satires. As anti-war as it gets.
They are both garbage because they paint an absurdly twisted and false view of military service, assume we could have beaten Hitler by talking to him, and that managing an entire war is as easy as being a bombardier.
@@penultimateh766 Although the story exaggerates , war is largely madness and driven by economics, so this is a valid parody. Learn to think for yourself
@@BradiKal61 So we should have just let the Holocaust continue, and let France and the Philippines stay enslaved, in order to prove a point by keeping aloof from said madness?
@@penultimateh766 he didn’t say that whatsoever. You can fight and also understand the absurdity of warfare.
@@poundlandbandit6124 Warfare is absurd and unfortunate. DUH. "I don't like war, war is BAD". Welcome to "known facts" of 4000 BC . But unless you have a way to guarantee psychopathic rulers won't emerge and threaten humanity and need dealing with, then triple-stating that was is bad is infantile.
Damn these effects are incredible for 1970
Consider that the film was released only some 25 years after the depicted events,
and now it is 52 years since the film's release.
I saw it in 1970, it totally blew me away, then read the book.
well, its not effects. Its actual flights of B-25’s flown by former WWII bomber pilots. Except for the scene in the front of the airplane, which they did on the ground with the engines running, in front of a screen back projecting the rest of the flight. And the bombs dropping.
Yes. Actually the modified camera plane was camouflage-painted and took part in the mass-takeoff in "Catch-22", but I haven't been able to spot it.
That's some catch, that Catch-22
Only time you can see Major Major is when he's not there
Holy Smokes, what a cast!
It was either B-25H-1NA 43-4513 (Modified to look like a B-25C) or B-25J-25NC 44-30823.
Both the waist and tail gun openings were uncovered on the modified camera plane, to allow the cameras an unrestricted view. The same was the case with the B-25 filming "The Battle of Britain".
What about Final Countdown?
@@ronaldkonkoma4356
What about it???
Notice how the two men stop running before the car stops completely 😂
Have anyone recognized Art Garfunkel ?
Yes he is Nately
@danghonglinh. Yes, I have…
so much better than the tv mini series
The end of this scene and many others was filmed on the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona.
I think that with the exception of Sheen, Newhart, Vogt, and Garfunkel, everyone else has gone to that great big movie palace in the sky. RIP.
I first saw this when it first came out. A classic then and just as good now!
I'm not all that Bright, most days I'm not even Screwed into the Socket...
... but I get This.
The Entire Movie...
... and the Who's "Fooled Again"...
...and Dire Straits' "Industrial Disease"...⚓
Read the book years ago - could be wrong but seem to remember the Army “strategy” for bombing the town was only so that its debris would go down the hill and block the road.
Thought the black marketeer wanted to knock off the competition
Yossarian who is wants to be considered insane , is the most sane character in the story
That's the catch.
You mean rational.
"We can't shoot the bastards"
Yeah. All those in charges are the insane ones
@@robmarsh6668That’s some catch!
Great movie and great book...Catch 22 and The Sirens of Titan got me reading...besides what does one do in jail for 10 days? Keep re reading Catch 22
Dang, that was Art Garfunkle.
Hahaha I haven't seen the movie since age 8 or 9 at a drive-in. I remember this scene all too well.
that's a tiny village and it's on the sea? Ferrara is a city and it's in the inland.
Unfortunately that is what happened on occasion during WW2. They would give medals and awards to politically connected officers and personnel despite them not doing anything or being insubordinate screw ups. See Lyndon Baines Johnson and his B-25 mission and Douglas Macarthur's defense of the Philippines.
Gee, why didn't we, as a nation, foresee every possible complex eventuality in a world war and just account for them all by putting the exact right people and resources every place at every time. Seems like common sense. Heck, we do it every year, right?
MacAuthur was ordered to leave the Philippines by Roosevelt he wanted to stay with his men.
@@bmcg5296 the wannabe Caesar was a joke.
Americans General Staff was actually extremely competent during the war due to the rapid reforms we underwent when expanding our military x10 in only the matter of a few years. Hundreds would be sacked and repositioned due to inexperience and many would have the opportunity to be promoted again after proving their competency.
The MacArthur case was simply a bad case of America’s Pre-War Military fighting against a capable enemy. Firstly, while true that MacArthur ignored Bataan and choose to build up defenses across the Philippines in Pre-War preparations, there really wasn’t any other option. All Intelligence indicted a war would happen in later 1942, giving more time for preparing, MacArthur was expecting a massive convey carrying modern equipment and combat troops in early 1942 which would’ve had him far more ready for war.
The other issue was that he was given orders to focus on Bataan Pre-War, but he ignored it. Of course he did! Bataan was an isolated peninsula which couldn’t protect any of the Philippines. Imagine swearing to protect a protectorate nation and asking for their full trust when you are only focusing your defenses on a random peninsula. Immediately, the Philippines would be in uproar and likely support the Japanese invasion and their soldiers, which made up much of MacArthurs army, would run away or even take up arms against him.
The other reality was equipment, virtually MacArthurs entire arsenal was made up of WWI stockpiles. Most of the ammunition was duds, and soldiers would often have to throw multiple grenades together just to hope for one to explode. Mortars were virtually worthless and used to only distract the enemy. The rifles were the same used during WWI and mostly broke down. Food was outdated by 2 decades. There was virtually no medical supplies either.
Despite this, MacArthurs force managed to have an orderly retreat and establish a frontline at Bataan and not only hold off but completely defeat the Japanese. The Japanese General in charge admitted that if MacArthur tried to launch a counter offensive, he could’ve retaken the capital itself, since the Japanese were totally beaten off.
@@JB-uv4hm Oh I'm sorry, when was the last time you threw Japan out of New Guinea and the Philippines? Did your marketing degree and barista experience help you at all?
Art Garfunkel was a great musician and actor
You do know he's still alive, right? :)
@@miked1869 Yes I know but he really doesn’t act or do music anymore so that’s why I used past tense
Where did Yossarian get his info about Ferria, Italy ? Why did the fish have to suffer ??
SgtBaker16 - no, they’d be too busy getting upset at pub names to think about real animals.
CGI people.
@@CalridRobnor123srs pretty sure CGI was not a thing in the late sixties.
They had Michellin guide books back then. They were everywhere. Sounds like he was reading right out of one.
A true classic. 👍❤️🇺🇸
That makes sense. B-25s film more movies than they appear in.
In Batavia Ohio at the warbird museum you can see this plane the plane is there and you can look under it and everything
Sounds like Neebs Gaming honestly.
"I'm looking at water!"
Great film and on point without question.
Its General Dreedle, not "Dweedle." And BTW, Yossarian's B-25 is missing it's top gun turret in head-on closeup shots when the Group bombs the ocean.
The scene showing Alan Arkin in the nose of the B-25, in the beginning of this clip, was filmed in a studio, using front projection.
Sure looked real, though! And no CGI!
@@LordGreystoke yes, I've always been struck by how good those shots were. They look very convincing.
@@miked1869 I wonder how they synchronised the projector with the camera so that no artifacts would appear.
@@Milnoc Hollywood is used to that kinds of shots, they know What they do. And, it was filmed with a FILM Camera, not video
Dude can run fast!
Absolutely watch the movie.
It's brilliant.
Read the book.
But for gods sake....listen to the pilot sing!!
is that orson welles?!
Yes.
@@Saint_Ann nice
I heard it was the tail gun, but that's more likely. Why did they leave'em open during the movie? It was covered with Plexiglas during the war.
But... the Mediterranean is a Sea, not an ocean.
Same locations of The Mask of Zorro.
no mention of garfunkle

Art Garfunkel,
if that jeep had have come to an abrupt stop, cathcart's nose woulda broke off in dreedle's arse, the weasel.
where can I get this movie?
I don't know the book but i'm crazy about this film,fantastic casting&image, great storytelling,keeps a momentum of wacky comedy,puzzlness &absurd slow tragedy, the tvshow is a let down despite talents here and there(G Clooney among others), i should have stay away from a product David Michod worked on..
Is this based on real events?
Yes!
@@ragingbull8024 Right, can you elaborate please?!
The book was written by a vet, but the names, dates, and locations are almost certainly changed, and events are probably dramatized quite a bit. That said, I’m sure similar things have happened.
@@509Gman Yeah. Imagine the allies had not fire bombed Dresden.
I think pretty much ever bomb over Germany was dropped smack onto the cities. Although I think some pilots spared the Cathedral of Cologne.
@@ragingbull8024 Where did you get the information that you based your answer of "yes" from? I can tell you that the book Catch 22 was written by Joseph Heller, he claimed that it was a work of fiction, very loosely based on the squadron that he was in during WW2. That squadron was the 488th bomb squadron, 340th bomb group (medium) , 57th bomb wing, 12th Army Air Force. Heller was a bombardier in the 488th. My uncle Earl Laird was in the 488th and served with Heller. My uncle was an armorer and bomb loader for the squadron in Africa Corsica and Italy from 42-45. He knew Heller as they were in the same squadron and my uncle loaded Bombs and ammo in Hellers B25. As the armorer they would have conversations about the bomb load of a particular mission. They also stayed in contact after the war at the annual reunions for decades. My uncle rarely missed a reunion. The men of the 488th, according to my uncle were not very happy with Heller as he portrayed them as a bunch of foul ups. Sure they had some fun in their down time, but they were a very serious and dedicated unit, all the squadrons of that group were, 486th, 487th and the 488th. They had a very good accuracy record. These were brave men that served and some died, with honor. I heard many many stories about his time with the 488th in Africa Corsica and Italy. It was the time of his life. Even though he was ground crew, they were also in mortal danger a lot of the time, they got strafed, they handled untold tons of bombs of all types and machine gun ammo, and a lot of the time it was work as fast as you can.. They also had to deal with fixing the planes after a mission which included cleaning up the inside after a crewman was hit. They also had to clean and repair the planes after Mt. Vesuvius erupted near their field and destroyed a lot of planes and equipment. You must keep in mind that this movie is not a documentary, it's fiction.

Stupid book, boring movie. Like "The Red Badge of Courage," written by a naif who never got near the war but somehow wrote a "seminal text" about it.
