Description
Randle P. McMurphy (Jack Nicholson), a rebellious convict who feigns mental illness to escape hard labour, is transferred to a state psychiatric hospital where he collides with the authoritarian Nurse Ratched. McMurphy’s energetic resistance and friendship with the other patients exposes the ward’s oppressive routines and sets off a battle of wills that ultimately leads to tragic consequences, a raw, human drama about individuality, institutional power and sacrifice.
