    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The fourteen-year-old son of director Robert Altman, Mike Altman, wrote the lyrics to the theme song "Suicide is Painless". Because of its inclusion in the subsequent television series, he continued to get residuals throughout its run and syndication. His father was paid $75,000 for directing, but his son eventually made about $2 million in song royalties, with payments continuing, from first syndication through the present day, as M*A*S*H (1972) continues in syndication around the world.
    • Goofs
      Margaret's surname is scripted as "Houlihan". The 'O' was added due to a slip of the tongue by G. Wood and Roger Bowen, the only two people who refer to her as "O'Houlihan" in the whole movie.
    • Quotes

      Painless: [lining up during football game] All right, Bub, your fuckin' head is coming right off.

      [the first use of the word "fuck" in a major motion picture]

    • Crazy credits
      The shot of Hot Lips being revealed in the shower was replaced with her exiting the helicopter in network and basic cable showings when Sally Kellerman's name was announced.
    • Alternate versions
      Some of the scenes that were altered in the US "PG" version:
      • The arterial spurting from the neck of a patient in the operating room was removed.
      • When O'Houlihan is surprised in the shower, the tent flap begins to rise but the scene cuts away before seeing her.
      • The "F-word" was removed from the football game.
    • Connections
      Edited into Give Me Your Answer True (1987)
    • Soundtracks

      Lyrics by Mike Altman

    Interesting
    This picture is quite interesting in its portrayl of how one can cope during the stupidity of war. There is no message in this picture, there is no strong narrative, no story. It's a barrage of jokes edited together perfectly. Altman's direction is quite unique, the strong zooms, the editing, over-lapping dialogue. The fact that there is no plot throws up challenges, and I certainly admire the effort put into this by all concerned

    The production values are terrific and the photography is miserable, which is perfect!

    Sutherland is so damn perfect, such a terrific performance, I love the goofy style.

    There are times when the picture isn't interesting and sometimes things fall flat. But there are jokes and laughs which this film relies on during the absurd war, it's the joking that keeps these characters alive.

    I wouldn't say this picture features a good screenplay but the direction is so unique that it deserves to be seen by everyone. They don't make challenging works like this anymore.

    Remember to watch this film in widescreen otherwise you'll miss out on 43% of the picture.
