One flew over cuckoo's nest... a movie revisit!

In the history of Oscars... only three movies hold the honour for making it perfect five... winning all major categories! 

 It happened one night, Silence of the lambs and then this movie...ONE FLEW OVER CUCKOO'S NEST!

I said in one of previous post 'Oscar's Lady'  is Katherine Hepburn... like wise oscar's best friend is JACK NICHOLSON, most nominated actor...

Here he plays the role of a con named McMurphy, who seeks a place in a mental asylum, to escape imprisonment...

Slowly he develops frienship with inmate looneys... and his close one is that tall deaf and dumb(?) Indian, who everybody calls as chief... as to do some good to his new friends... he often breaches the rules of the asylum (at one point, tricking the guards, he takes all the loooneys for fishing in a stolen boat... the most enjoyable scene in the movie)                                                                      

And in no time he becomes the darling of the looneys, but... 

The strict nurse Miltred Ratched (efficiently played by Louise Fletcher) doesn't like it a bit... she wants all the looneys under her thumb's control... but McMurphy proves to be a pain in her ***! 

Not withstanding the hostile environment and those dose of unwanted ECTs (Electro convulsive therapy)  he plans to escape,  before his escape, he gives a great party to the inmates.

and the last few moments of the film is really shocking... transcending the whole movie to be a classic. The casting couldn't be more perfect...especially Christopher Loyd and Danny de Vito excels, playing as lovable looneys!

If you want to see some good realistic acting... catch hold of this DVD!

My Marks: 53 out of 100!
