One of the classic roles for which Nicholson's prime is remembered. It's all about the characters and the casting.

What is One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest about? Toggle content

Randle McMurphy, a rebellious and un florid criminal, feigns insanity to avoid serving his sentence in prison. He is sent to a psychiatric hospital where he clashes with the authoritarian Nurse Ratched and her strict rules. McMurphy's contagious energy and nonconformity inspire the other patients to question their own conditioning and rise up against their oppressors. The film follows their journey towards self-discovery and empowerment as they challenge the status quo and fight for their freedom. With powerful performances from Jack Nicholson, Louise Fletcher, and Michael Rapaport, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a gripping drama that exposes the dark truth about mental institutions and celebrates individuality over conformity.
