Published in the middle of the Vietnam War, Catch-22 sounded the charge against the US army in the midst of the Vietnam War. Mike Nichols turned it into a hit movie before the book went into hibernation. Until Trump that is. It returns here as a series, produced, directed and performed by George Clooney and created by David Michôd and Luke Davies.

Published during the Vietnam War, Joseph Heller’s Catch-22 sounded like a pacifist pamphlet. This fierce satire of the US army during WWII was the subject of a brilliant film adaptation by Mike Nichols in 1970 before falling into oblivion. This new adaptation, bold and visually breathtaking, reminds us once more of the absurdity of war and of the army.
