One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)


Hello people! This time I’m going to do a movie review! I’m going to talk about “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, a Jack Nicholson movie.

Well, winner of 5 oscars and another 28 wins and nominations this movie is a “must-see” classic. McMurphy (Nicholson) was a prisoner who wants to avoid the forced labor camp in jail by all cost. For doing that he pretended to be a mental ill person, so he was transferred to a mental institution. In that place he fitted in frighteningly well. But because his impulsive and explosive personality he had many conflicts with the Chief Nurse, who didn’t want that McMurphy left the place because she thought that he was really ill. For that reason McMurphys began his tries to escape from the asylum…

This movie made you think about what is to be “crazy”, Was Nicholson character really mad? Was he really faking his problem? Also this movie shows the life inside a mental institution and how is the common life for people with psychiatric problems.

I saw this movie in my home. You can do the same I did and download it from internet and see it. I really recommend this movie, especially for people who are studying a career related with the human mind or simple have interest on the subject.

I hope you had enjoyed this review,

Bye!!
