More of the successful films were those based in the harsh truths of war, rather than the excesses of the 1960s. Films like the Francis Ford Coppola-scripted "Patton", starring George C. Scott as the World War II general, and Robert Altman's "MASH", about a Korean War field hospital, were major box-office draws in 1970. Honest, old-fashioned films like "Summer of '42", and the Erich Segal adaptation, "Love Story", were commercial and critical hits. (Love Story and "Summer" remain, , two of the most successful films in Hollywood history. "Summer", costing US$1,000,000, brought in $25,000,000 at the box office, while "Love Story", with a budget of $2,200,000, earned $106,400,000).
