Warning: This episode contains moderate cursing.

Attention! Attention! In this week's episode of The Historian's Movie Review I am joined by my friend Jeff, and we talk about the 1970 film M*A*S*H. 

Topics discussed include the origin of the Korean War, the creation of MASH units, the nature of how we conceptualize war, as well as the creeping threat of Nazi bears! That is all.

The Historian's Movie Review is back after an extended break! This week I look at the 2008 martial arts film IP Man (葉問). Topics discussed include IP Man's study of Win Chung Kung Fu, and the Japanese occupation of China in World War II, and the Nanjing Massacre.
