Catch-22 (1970)

Catch-22 is the 1970 adaptation of Joseph Heller's best selling novel of the same name, directed by Mike Nichols and starring Alan Arkin, Martin Sheen, Bob Newhart, Orson Welles and Jon Voight. Although this adaptation was done with the blessing of the author, it was overshadowed by Robert Altman's MASH, another anti-war black comedy which was released in the same year. Heller's novel would be adapted again as a 2019 Hulu original limited series that was executive-produced by and co-starred George Clooney.


The following weapons were used in the film Catch-22 (1970):


Star Model B

1st Lt Dobbs (Martin Sheen) tries to kill Colonel Cathcart (Martin Balsam) with a Star Model B. Capt Yossarian (Alan Arkin) wrestles it away and later uses it for himself.
