MASH was directed by Robert Altman based on the novel by Richard Hooker and screenplay by Ring Lardner Jr. It was released in March 1970 by Aspen Productions and runs for 116 minutes. Donald Sutherland is Hawkeye Pierce, Elliot Gould is Trapper John McIntyre, Tom Skerritt is Duke Forest, Sally Kellerman is ‘Hot Lips’ O’Houlihan, Robert Duvall is Maj. Frank Burns, Rene Auberjonois is Father John Mulcahy, Fred Williamson is Dr. Oliver ‘Spearchucker’ Jones, and Michael Murphy is ‘Me Lai’ Marston. In 1971 MASH won an Oscar for Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium. It was also nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Sally Kellerman), Best Director, Best Film Editing, and Best Picture. It won a Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture-Comedy/Musical. It was also nominated for Best Motion Picture Actor (Elliot Gould & Donald Sutherland), Best Motion Picture Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actress (Sally Kellerman). The movie was also nominated for a Grammy for Best Original Score Written for a Motion Picture or Television Special. MASH and Catch-22 (1970), two films satirizing recent American wars, were released in the same year. "Catch-22," based on a best-selling novel, featuring a huge cast, and boasting director Mike Nichols fresh from his success with The Graduate (1967), was expected to be the more successful film. When the reverse proved true, Robert Altman hung a banner in his office reading, "Caught-22." Burt Reynolds turned down the role of Trapper John.
