M*A*S*H

Storyline

MASH 1970

In the 1970 film M*A*S*H, set during the Korean War in 1951, the story follows the antics of a group of surgeons and an assistant working at a field hospital called MASH (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital). They are often referred to as “butchers” and none of them are professional soldiers, having come from civilian hospitals. Despite the heavy surgeries, amputations, deaths, and other horrors of war, they find time to laugh, joke, and have fun every day without losing sight of their duties. There is actually not a single action scene in the film, making MASH one of the greatest anti-war films.
