About Catch-22
Bombardier Yossarian is stationed on the small island of Pianosa during World War II. In addition to the enemy trying to kill him, Yossarian also has to endure the bureaucratic SNAFUs of group leaders and the insane antics of other 256th Squadron members. Failed television pilot for a sitcom adaptation of Joseph Heller’s satirical black comedy novel Catch-22.
Directed by Richard Quine, Catch-22 leans on a strong ensemble — Richard Dreyfuss, Dana Elcar, Frank Welker — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1973.
