It is a loose adaptation of Richard Hooker's 1968 novel ''MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors'' and spawned three television series, including ''[[M*A*S*H (TV Series)|M*A*S*H]]'', which ran for eleven seasons (or, eight years longer than the actual Korean War.) The film garnered five Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director, but ended up only winning one for Best Adapted Screenplay.
