Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe name of George Clooney's character is Scheisskopf. In German, "kopf" means "head" (in both the anatomical and hierarchical senses) and "scheiss" is a vulgarism meaning "feces" (and having the same colloquial meaning as the English word "shit"). So translated literally, "Scheisskopf" means "shithead," though that exact insult doesn't exist in German.

I adore the novel. So, each adaptation can be only expression of lecture. And the serie is a good proof. Crazy, charming, bitter, sarcastic, proposing a simple warning against war and a very good Yossarian of Christopher Abbott. Good actors, nice script, memories more about Mash , a total show, smart, spiced, clever and so...energetic. And, not the last, an useful support for reflection. It is the novel but not exactly the expected version. And, in strange manner, this is one of significant virtues. So, a lovely gift.
