Midweek Mention... One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
from Bad Dads Film Review · host Bad Dads
Peter's Number themed week begins with his first ever viewing of Miloš Forman's highly influential and multi Oscar winning ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST, a 1975 psychological drama about recidivist Randall P. McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) who thinks riding out his sentence in an Oregon State psychiatric hospital will be easier than a stretch in a prison work farm and immediately finds himself engaged in a power struggle with sadistic Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher), the seething passive aggressive rage of institutionalised cruelty personified.
