Developed by George Clooney. Complete scripts for the entire miniseries of Six Episodes.A HULU Original "For your consideration for awards" 2019. 692 pages with 12 color stills from the shoot.From "Paste"Hulu's Catch-22 is considerably more linear than Heller's original novel, but not in a way that sacrifices the anti-bureaucracy-and anti-stupidity message. As panic stricken bombardier John Yossarian, Christopher Abbott successfully takes on a role that was thoroughly owned by Alan Arkin. He's convincing, equally so in dramatic and comedic moments (and there are plenty of both), and the direction takes good advantage of it, with ample closeups of Abbott's large, dark, liquid-looking eyes as they perfect the thousand-yard-stare of a man for whom horror and idiocy have become the same thing. The supporting cast (including Clooney as the parade-obsessed General Scheisskopf and Hugh Laurie as taste-for-the-finer-things Major de Coverley) is absurdist-perfecto, nailing the complicated balance of "real" emotion and farce. Production design is understated, a drab palette of khaki uniforms and dry bisque-colored Mediterranean landscapes; even the sky and the water seem subdued and desiccated, making the bizarre comedic eruptions stand out and the occasional moments of raw combat gore all the more shocking and bloody. Daniel Davis Stewart as the enterprising mess officer Milo Minderbinder and Lewis Pullman as the kerfuffled Major Major are also standout-funny. The episodes' pacing is very balanced, so that we feel the endless repetition Yossarian feels without feeling like the show itself is spinning its wheels." 692 pp. Unpublished; FYC {for your consideration} for Emmys and Golden Globes.
