Summary: 5 Stars
Superb script, cast, screen play, and, of course, who could have directed it but Mike Nichols?
Summary of Catch-22
A world war ii pilot tries to have himself grounded as insane but theres a catch. From the joseph heller novel. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 01/17/2006 Starring: Alan Arkin Anthony Perkins Run time: 122 minutes Rating: R Director: Mike NicholsJoseph Heller's novel was one of the seminal literary events of the 1960s, but Mike Nichols's film ultimately proved too literal in its attempt to bring Heller's fragmented fiction to the screen. Still, Nichols, who made this on the heels of The Graduate, seemed the ideal candidate to tackle this Buck Henry adaptation. The story deals with bomber pilot Yossarian (Alan Arkin), who has flown enough missions to get out of World War II but can't because the number of missions needed for discharge keeps getting raised. The satire and absurdity of Heller's book get lost in Nichols's effort to give screen time to the members of his all-star cast, which includes Orson Welles, Jon Voight, Bob Newhart, Anthony Perkins, Richard Benjamin, and Martin Sheen, among others. --Marshall Fine
