I'm so glad I wasn't the one to write this b/c I came into comments & saw yours first Only thing I can think about at first, she is one beautiful & sexy woman. Probably where the nurse fetish came from Testament to what an amazing actress she was. Making us look beyond her being so fine while also being a monster
Maybe not in the movie, but when I saw what Louise Fletcher looked like out of character I was struck by how pretty she was, particularly her lovely smile.
you sporting a submissive drive, perhaps as a topup? I for once thought her well and constantly shaking the Slaptree so masterfully I wouldn't have had hesitating over chivalry, general outrule of violence towards women and kids. Gender within her shifted away from taking her on as female, taking liberties, destroying people in public, the whole display of abuse, offense and loving to hurt and torture made her asexual and fully targetable for retribution to payback til even.
@randall-flagg There is a film from the late forties starring Olivia de Havilland aptly titled The Snake Pit, which she plays the role of a schizophrenic admitted to a mental institution. The snake pit itself refers to the ward where those deemed beyond help are just dumped off with little supervision and left to fend for themselves.

Have you heard this?
Yes, but its based on a BOOK. Its the book that cant be matched. I have read it. I cant recall what I thought of the book other than I read it almost in one go. However, I think that its main difference is that Mr McMurphy is toned down a bit, that being that Jack Nicholson steals the thunder from the book. He's great, but that's not the point, its not a film about Jack Nicholson, its about Mr McMurphy. However, the film is otherwise flawless and a total classic. Its just that Jacks persona sways the balance quite a bit.
On one of my first trips downtown, at 19 years old, I went into a theatre with a friend. Neither of us had heard of the movie. Almost 50 years later, it's still as crisp in my mind as if I'd seen it last week. The characters, the dialogue, the silences. The humour and horror. Just brilliant. Milos Forman and his gang lit this thing on fire.
I had a similar experience, not knowing the gem I was going to watch when my sister (who is a psychologist) put this movie as a homework. I was doing other things but I saw Jack Nicholson so I gave it a chance. I was in tears by the end of the movie and as teenager it hit certain spots that changed me forever.
@TheBrabon1 I think it's the fact that old Hollywood died and the age of Millennials has arrived, and with that comes careful not to offend anyone. I loved the era of Sinatra, Dean Martin and Johnny Carson, with it the movies of those times. Those were when people had class and elegance.
I saw this film when it first came out in cinemas. Apart from Nicholson I thought all the patients were actually real patients as their acting was so good. And as for Nicholson, well his acting is just off the scale. His voice and how he delivers his lines is amazing, his screen presence is arguably better than anyone else in the history of the cinema. As for the complete film, it is the best film I have ever seen.
@UCqT2wuV21D-pXPHsFVdTq4w The psychiatrist that J Nicholson is interviewed by and who is the director of the hospital was a psychiatrist and the actual director of a psychiatric hospital. He was not an actor. I am pretty sure that all the "patients" were actors. The "star" of this screenplay was Louise Fletcher as Nurse Ratched. Terrifying "monstor" in a horror movie. Got Billy killed and got McMurphy lobotomized. A Jeffry Dahmer like character, but working legally and backed by the system, therefore much more dangerous and terrifying than Jeffrey.
I don't know if it's the greatest movie ever made but it might be. Best picture, best director, best screenplay, best actor, best actress, at a time when the Academy Awards actually meant something.
One of my favorite parts of the movie was when McMurphy broke some of his patient buddies out and took them on a ride in the hospital bus. When renting a boat someone questioned for good reason who the patients were. McMurphy introduced them one by one as doctors. As crazy as they all looked it was believable.

@@trowerz You should report your ex-wife. She has no business being a Foster mother. Try to imagine being a child & she's the next parent you get? Stop the abuse!
Billions of people will have lived and died never seeing this film. I am greatful to have lived to see it. Mental care was reviewed after this epic. A very clear message was sent out. Jack cemented himself as a solid tier one artist thats for sure. Easy Rider was also good
Jack Nicolson is one of the greatest actors ever. He can play such diverse roles and comes across so believable in all his characters. This movie is so sad to watch but with a dry dense of humour. All cast are superb.
Yes he is. Broke my heart seeing him on screen many times. "About Schmidt" was one of his best as was "As Good as It Gets". That smile crosses generations.
The scene where MacMurphy protests that the poor sod standing in crucifixion is pissing himself......should have been in the final cut. A lot of meaning and symbolism there
The crucifixtion symbolises sacrifice. Where imprisonment, or confinement represents enforcement, someone under forced control - Mr Ellis in this case - still shows a peaceful compliance and an open vulnerability. He may be saying "here I am, you cannot drive my mentality any lower". That uneasy contrast of master and servant is reflected in the key relationship between McMurphy and Nurse Rached. Both are good (honourable nursing profession and McMurphy's pastoral protest that his fellow inmates are not crazy), both are bad (exposing Billy's relationship with his mother as unloving, McMurphy exploiting inmates through gambling pressures). Both are competing against each other, both are pressurised by each other. Ultimately they respect each other, but prima facie, they hate each other. This is due to their prescribed roles: representing the conflict which arises from authority over power. Both have an authority, both have power....but never simultaneously. That again mirrors good v bad, or right v wrong, the primary basis of Christianity v The Devil or any other polarised religious standpoint you choose to attach. McMurphy"s genuine call for help over the urination and Nurse Ratched's refusal to acknowledge his concern first hand illustrates a key meaning at a very early stage in McMurphy's new journey. He is being told "If something disturbs you, it can only disturb you on my terms.... even then, it is none of your business and there will be no gratitude"
That actor was Michael Berryman. He was only in his 20s at the time believe it or not. He had a rare medical condition in which no hair could grow anywhere
The 'must remain on your seat' rule explains why Harding was so overly apologetic when trying to get his cigarette back during therapy later on in the movie
This is a brilliant movie and so unusual that the film is better than the book. I was rocked to the core when “the Indian” spoke something you learn within a few pages of opening the book.
Was at the drive-in theater in Phoenix 1975 and the girl I was with had a vw bus. We weren't really watching the movie. The way I remember it was that I got to first.......stole second..........stole third, and promptly got thrown out at home! Never got to see the movie at the drive-in,but have many times since and is one of my all time favorites!
Well just treat everybody with kindness and respect because these places really aren't for anybody to live you have no freedom and all your rights are taken from you you're being held against your will to do things you don't want to do that no innocent person should ever have to go through. It's like living in a nursing home or a prison like a slave where you have nothing to lose no future ahead of you and a place where you spend the rest of your life and your last dying days.
This film really showed how inept and hopeless Roger Ebert was as a film critic. It is a truly great piece of film - making and Roger didn't appreciate how great it is. Probably one of the top ten films ever made.
I don't think you can kill a man for one "missed-mark" critique. He had a great career. No man alive has ever been 100 percent spot on in anything he's done.
Yes, she stands as a perfect symbol of what there is to hate in modern society and all that is wrong. She carries that out well, but I doubt she had to try hard.
@@BlueRidgeMtns100 I have been thinking about it hard and I still cant get over the fact that she was an actor. I further came to the conclusion that she must be one of the most hated people history, beside the Wicked Witch of the West.
There is (or was) an entire series on Netflix devoted to her and the development of her character. I watched a few episodes but couldn’t get into it as she was portrayed by another actor. I can’t accept anyone but Louise Fletcher in the role of Mildred Ratched.
Saw the movie first, read the book second, then saw the movie about another half dozen times, over the years. Effortlessly exquisite flick. I’m due for another viewing.
Lmfao I swear there was some subliminal flirtation between Ratched and Mack even before seeing these scenes and her checking him out only has me that much more convinced XD
One of the best films ever Heard that some of the extras were actually mental patients & some got healthier & got released later! Man, you really need a purpose in life!
what a flick...it's one of those that sticks with you over the yrs...you never forget where you were or when it was....caught it when it first came out and remember laughing at things and I was the only one in the whole audience...Atlanta `75
in the era of ‘The Exorcist’….the only movie that scared the living crap out of me…slept with the light on for the next 5yrs after seeing that and wouldn’t even walk down an unlit street or even go out to my garage after dark…just sayin! .
@@russellking9762 The Exorcist is the only movie that I refused to see with my friends. I watched it when I was 23 years old. Many years, after all, my friends saw it.
Papillon was also a great book, a true story. The real guy wrote a sequel about his life after he finally escaped. May have been better than the first. But ANYTHING w Steve McQueen is excellent. The Thomas Crown Affair my fave, The Great Escape also based on real story. He left us too soon.
not really. he hates being there and to get out you pretend to be better. but he does make friends with billy and the chief. they are the only two he likes.
My parents used to wonder why my buddy and I were always raving about this Nicholson guy. Finally they went to a double bill of Cuckoo's Nest and Last Detail and came back converted. I think it was the first time they'd seen a modern actor that was as great as the old stars they used to love.
I watched this movie with my good friends Bill and Sue in Oklahoma City. Sue passed five years later Bill passed 36 years later. I sure miss them both!
No, that's the point. Most people are either part of the system or otherwise too dumbed down or pacified to realise they are the patients. Mr McMurphy represents the man that is too clever for the position he is in but is not 'part of the system', which is a position a lot of people can relate to. You can start that question by asking yourself where you live and what job you have. WARNING, thinking can be dangerous and the police state don't want that.
Interesting that they deleted the last scene which, with Ratched's half-smile on becoming aware of McMurphy's antics, was indicative of a smidgeon of humanity on her part. Maybe at odds with the impression the director wanted to create.
Jack is the best actor, ever!!! He is so good, I love every movie he is in!!!!!! He is fantastic!!!!!! All of them are great..... Good job, Jack, love you alway's!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀... 2022......
DANG those scenes are the heart of the movie, they really set up the main conflict eh? I _knew_ there must be something missing when i saw it again recently for the first time since its premiere, thanks very much for filling me in. Real shame its been so "sanitized"
@Andrew Becker She did not kill Billy, Billy was already suicidal for most of his life. She was a bitch and was cruel, don’t get me wrong, but she didn’t know it would lead to him killing himself.
I could see why the last scene was cut. Louise Fletcher playing the head nurse was having a difficult time trying to keep her composure. That scene was hilarious.
This Nurse is fantastic and McMurphy a proper vilain, that’s for sure…😳‼️ This movie NEVER ceases to amaze It is brilliantly written, directed and performed EXCELLENT‼️ 👊🔥 🪖
The book is amazing also, it was a golden period for movies, and this is one of the very best, when I watched it I believed most of the cast to be genuine patients.
Thanks for posting these clips. Short as they are, I can still feel them drawing me into that world. Brilliant. I find it interesting that the card scene at 0:20 resembles The Last Supper by Da Vinci. I have to wonder if it was just a compositional coincidence or were they consciously mirroring the apostles with the patients and McMurphy with Jesus. Maybe it seemed heavy handed, or they didn't want that association, and that's why it was cut. It's been too long since I saw this movie, I feel the need to watch it again with older, wiser eyes. Hopefully I won't sit there adding up the references, memes, movie trivia and stuff but just revel in one of the best movies ever made.
The “you must remain in your chair” part shouldn’t have been cut because it explains why in the “I want my cigs back” part the guy just sits there and lets it burn his leg
All of the patients and staff’s faces are forever emblazoned in my brain and were from the 1st time that I saw this. They never realized how huge this movie was going to be. It put all of the actors on the map. Forever. Kirk Douglas’s biggest regret in life was not playing McMurphy when he had the chance. Turned it down. Jack Nicholson took a percentage of the profits rather than take a menial salary and he made millions. Nobody wanted to do the movie and Michael Douglas got it done. Unbelievable. One of the greatest movies of all time.
What does that mean ? “kirk’s not actor”. Actually - he’s dead. So yeah - he’s not acting if that is what your incomplete sentence minus any punctuation means.
Kirk played the role on Broadway he gave the script to Michael as a gift. While Michael worked on “Streets of San Francisco”, he came in contact with the man who owned Fantasy Records, the great jazz label, Saul Zantz. Saul had the money and was interested in producing movies, Michael had the script and they decided to do it while sailing on Saul’s boat the Summer before.
One of the greatest movies ever made, and featured so many actors who had great careers, Devito, Nicholson, Samson and Christopher Lloyd. The closing theme is a haunting melody. Watched it 3 of 4 times at least.
It was shot in an actual hospital. Some of the patients took part - and the chief psychiatrist was played by - the chief psychiatrist...... but naive viewers often think, that Louise Fletcher is somewhat like her role. She is NOT! She is just talented enough to convince on screen!
GIRL INTERRUPTED also did the same thing...real hospital, and real patients were there and they had fake snow for filming so it confused them they thought it was real
@@frankatchison2519 I'm 52 now and watched this many many years ago, jesus it stook with me so much read the book but this touched my heart strings so much still registers
Yes indeed - if you like the movie and can read, you are in for a great adventure. The book is way better than the movie and hopefully one day a miniseries could be made from it, incorporating the visions and thoughts of Chief Broom about Control, which never got into the movie and gives the Cuckoo's Nest its true depth and importance.
3.12 i experienced this in southend on sea jobcenter, you try even try to defend your position politely 2 goons will stand behind you. i was in my late 50,s and they blamed me for being unemployed i must be a druggie, a nutter, a trouble maker. I explained one CANNOT DEFEND THEM SELVES IN A JOB SEEKING ENVIRONMENT WHEN AGEISM IS RIFE!.
This movie brings back so many memories of Marlboro psychiatric hospital in New Jersey, (torn down) I was there for being too drunk. Within 2 days, I was getting extra food,hanging out with the orderlies allnight, spitting out my meds, and then when they were going to release me, the nurse gave me $75, and then another nurse gave me $75, and then when I was out the door, another nurse gave me $75 in the parking lot!!😁 BUT I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER NOW!!🙃
You can see why they were deleted. Editing is an incredible art form. These scenes seem clunky, obvious and heavy handed, but among the rest of the film, it must be so hard to know what to leave out and what works. When it's part of the movie as a whole it must seem like it works, but when separated and apart from the final film, it seems obvious that these scenes don't fit. Brilliant all the same. What a cast. What a film.
That guy who smokes the cigarette is Vincent Schiavelli. He also played the ghost in the subway in the movie "Ghost" who breaks a cigarette machine and wishes he could smoke. Stangely enough Schiavelli died of lung cancer at 57

The little old man with the huge beard used to live about a block from us, and when he was in town, he would walk by our house regularly. I have forgotten his name now, but he was exactly like you see him here. If I was out in the yard when he went by, he was very cordial and open to conversation. That seems like a long time ago now.
I lived in Salem Oregon at the time. When driving by on Center Street you could see all the wood fencing put up for the outside scenes for privacy. Great movie.
Great cast and movie. I remembered watching One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest for the first time with my dad. The part I loved the most when Chief Bromden escapes. I jumped up and yelled yes, I was only five. Love and miss you dad. 💙
My favorite part is when mcMurphy and chief made a connection, and they had each others back. So it was really sad when chief saw that.they gave him a lobotomy( after grabbing nurse RATCHET around the neck)was so upset but knew Mcmurphy would never want to live the rest of his life in that condition. So he smothered him with a pillow. I loved chief!!❤
The first time I saw this movie I was coming down off some blotter and it was a trying experience, but still I must say this is my favorite movie ever. I read the book first and it is highly recommended if you haven't read it.
Would be absolutely difficult for me personally to "cut scenes" from a movie of this quality strictly because of "Time Issues"....Miss Fletcher summed up her experience on this particular movie set during her acceptance speech for her Oscar Award for this movie and can be seen here in RUclips! Great video Olivia McGean....much appreciation to you for sharing .....Cheers From Nutsville, Ohio
In my humble opinion, some of the scenes on the fishing boat could have been shaved down a little or the after-party drunken slumber where its rather slow and unnecessary. I can't actually think of a scene either that should be entirely cut.
@@tanganyikarichardson5588 LOLOL...I usually say COW-lumbus! But, since you also from this part of O-H, I completely understand your "version" as well! Salute
And it's absurd to think Jack Nicholson the person is anything like McMurphy or that he didn't have to act or that bullshit. Nicholson was a highly disciplined professional who worked his way up through the Hollywood studio system from a low level grunt to writing screenplays and studying acting in some of the most rigorous and demanding workshops in existence. He learned classical piano when he was in his 30s and was an intellectual who hung out with boundary pushing artists and the old guard Hollywood people. He's nothing like McMurphy. But he understood the character so deeply and his acting chops were so refined and also modern (Marlon Brando modern plus a little something else) that people cannot see the technique. That's a master. Just like it doesn't look hard to do what Johnny Carson did all those years when you watch him. Just looks like he's the kind of guy who was just naturally suited to show up and be all relaxed and right in the pocket...but that's not a job anyone could just naturally walk into and do...but he was a master, too. I'm still so inspired by both of them. I just love to watch people where you can't see any of the seams and shit. It's so cool.
I first saw this movie at the drive - in , in the year of 1975 . It was a moving experience even though I could only relate to it as one man against the system . Instead of the system against everyman and freedom . Something we need to keep In mind as Nurse Ratchet's s everywhere clamp down upon us !

You never met my ex wife, just ask a foster kid that she threw back into the system…we adopted his sister though. Ask HER what she thinks the difference is between Ratchet and her new “Mum”😳 I used to loathe Ratchet…not so much anymore….
@@trowerz You should report your ex-wife. She has no business being a Foster mother. Try to imagine being a child & she's the next parent you get? Stop the abuse!
Brad Dourif... what an actor..
Billions of people will have lived and died never seeing this film. I am greatful to have lived to see it. Mental care was reviewed after this epic. A very clear message was sent out.
Jack cemented himself as a solid tier one artist thats for sure. Easy Rider was also good
😁😁
Jack Nicholson (say what you will) a brilliant actor.
I think many viewers of this film don't realize how much abuse this evil villain nurse ratchet puts all these poor innocent patients through
Jack Nicolson is one of the greatest actors ever. He can play such diverse roles and comes across so believable in all his characters. This movie is so sad to watch but with a dry dense of humour. All cast are superb.
😀😀
Yes he is. Broke my heart seeing him on screen many times. "About Schmidt" was one of his best as was "As Good as It Gets". That smile crosses generations.
The scene where MacMurphy protests that the poor sod standing in crucifixion is pissing himself......should have been in the final cut. A lot of meaning and symbolism there
Could you tell me what Symbolism there is? I’m actually really curious. Enjoy stuff like that
Please tell me what it means
I’d also like to know
The crucifixtion symbolises sacrifice. Where imprisonment, or confinement represents enforcement, someone under forced control - Mr Ellis in this case - still shows a peaceful compliance and an open vulnerability. He may be saying "here I am, you cannot drive my mentality any lower". That uneasy contrast of master and servant is reflected in the key relationship between McMurphy and Nurse Rached. Both are good (honourable nursing profession and McMurphy's pastoral protest that his fellow inmates are not crazy), both are bad (exposing Billy's relationship with his mother as unloving, McMurphy exploiting inmates through gambling pressures). Both are competing against each other, both are pressurised by each other. Ultimately they respect each other, but prima facie, they hate each other. This is due to their prescribed roles: representing the conflict which arises from authority over power. Both have an authority, both have power....but never simultaneously. That again mirrors good v bad, or right v wrong, the primary basis of Christianity v The Devil or any other polarised religious standpoint you choose to attach.
McMurphy"s genuine call for help over the urination and Nurse Ratched's refusal to acknowledge his concern first hand illustrates a key meaning at a very early stage in McMurphy's new journey. He is being told "If something disturbs you, it can only disturb you on my terms.... even then, it is none of your business and there will be no gratitude"
That actor was Michael Berryman. He was only in his 20s at the time believe it or not. He had a rare medical condition in which no hair could grow anywhere
Some of the best character actors of all time in these scenes.
I think all these deleted scenes should be part of the movie. They are all amazing!
I think only the promo copies on vhs tape had these deleted scenes
imo the first 2 of those scenes shouldn't have been deleted mostly because it shows how mccmurphy knew what exactly he was in for...
This film was soooo sad .....brilliant acting from everybody .
Sad and very funny, a perfect movie
One of only a handful of truly great films ever made...you can watch this film as many times as you like and always appreciate it's craft..
It's too depressing to watch again
😀😀
The 'must remain on your seat' rule explains why Harding was so overly apologetic when trying to get his cigarette back during therapy later on in the movie
Verry interesting.
“It’s alright. You surprised me!” -Nurse Ratched
🙄
This is a brilliant movie and so unusual that the film is better than the book. I was rocked to the core when “the Indian” spoke something you learn within a few pages of opening the book.
Was at the drive-in theater in Phoenix 1975 and the girl I was with had a vw bus. We weren't really watching the movie. The way I remember it was that I got to first.......stole second..........stole third, and promptly got thrown out at home! Never got to see the movie at the drive-in,but have many times since and is one of my all time favorites!
The film that inspired me to go into psychiatric nursing for 36 years.
Was it worth it? I find the subject fascinating. The human mind and its infinite possibilities!
Uh. Which part? Giving you the benefit of the doubt here XD please tell me you wanted to not be like nurse Ratched
The film that inspired me to be sectioned for 36 years..
Well just treat everybody with kindness and respect because these places really aren't for anybody to live you have no freedom and all your rights are taken from you you're being held against your will to do things you don't want to do that no innocent person should ever have to go through. It's like living in a nursing home or a prison like a slave where you have nothing to lose no future ahead of you and a place where you spend the rest of your life and your last dying days.
In my top TEN......never forgot this film, made such a huge impact on me xx
This film really showed how inept and hopeless Roger Ebert was as a film critic. It is a truly great piece of film - making and Roger didn't appreciate how great it is.
Probably one of the top ten films ever made.
I don't think you can kill a man for one "missed-mark" critique. He had a great career. No man alive has ever been 100 percent spot on in anything he's done.

One of the best movies of all time. Incredible performances, plot writing directing. Jack Def deserved the best actor for this
He did win it
My lord, Louise Fletcher takes your breath no matter how many times you see her work in this film.
Yes, she stands as a perfect symbol of what there is to hate in modern society and all that is wrong. She carries that out well, but I doubt she had to try hard.
@@uktruecrime Bless your heart.
@@BlueRidgeMtns100 I have been thinking about it hard and I still cant get over the fact that she was an actor. I further came to the conclusion that she must be one of the most hated people history, beside the Wicked Witch of the West.
I thought she looked real good in this movie. I would have gotten busy with her in a padded room. 😏👍
There is (or was) an entire series on Netflix devoted to her and the development of her character. I watched a few episodes but couldn’t get into it as she was portrayed by another actor. I can’t accept anyone but Louise Fletcher in the role of Mildred Ratched.
Saw the movie first, read the book second, then saw the movie about another half dozen times, over the years.
Effortlessly exquisite flick.
I’m due for another viewing.
@Mama Petillo.. Took the words out of my mouth.
Still one of the greatest films ever made.
No it's not, it's the greatest ever made.
That's YOUR opinion, it differs from mine. I would not force my opinion on anyone. Many great films have been made, hence " one of the best".
Lmfao I swear there was some subliminal flirtation between Ratched and Mack even before seeing these scenes and her checking him out only has me that much more convinced XD
RIGHT
She loved almost being choked to death too. Her eyes rolling in her head said it all 😂
Love this movie when it came out. It was funny then and now. Just shows you how old I am.all the actors in this movie is what made it so special.
One of the best films ever
Heard that some of the extras were actually mental patients & some got healthier & got released later!
Man, you really need a purpose in life!
Louise Fletcher was trying hard not to laugh when Jack showed his ass like that! Lol!!!!
what a flick...it's one of those that sticks with you over the yrs...you never forget where you were or when it was....caught it when it first came out and remember laughing at things and I was the only one in the whole audience...Atlanta `75
in the era of ‘The Exorcist’….the only movie that scared the living crap out of me…slept with the light on for the next 5yrs after seeing that and wouldn’t even walk down an unlit street or even go out to my garage after dark…just sayin!
.
I was bummed out for days after my 1st time seeing this.😢
@@russellking9762 The Exorcist is the only movie that I refused to see with my friends. I watched it when I was 23 years old. Many years, after all, my friends saw it.
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest ... along with Papillon (v. Steve McQueen, Dustin Hoffman ), two of the greatest films ever made.
I'd have to add ... The good, the bad, the ugly.
Papillon was also a great book, a true story. The real guy wrote a sequel about his life after he finally escaped. May have been better than the first. But ANYTHING w Steve McQueen is excellent. The Thomas Crown Affair my fave, The Great Escape also based on real story. He left us too soon.
Jack is always playing himself and he is brilliant at it. Love that film. Nurse Ratched. Brilliant.
😀😀
The days when Movies were pure Entertainment from quality scriptwriters, directors and of course actors and actresses.
I like how in the first therapy session you can see how empathic Mac can be
Empathetic, Like a FOX.
not really. he hates being there and to get out you pretend to be better.
but he does make friends with billy and the chief. they are the only two he likes.
Empathetic
@@MontagZosoMac is definitely empathetic. Or, he would have escaped & this movie would have had a happy ending.
Jack Nicholson movies can never be replicated. He is one of a kind. A superb actor.
My parents used to wonder why my buddy and I were always raving about this Nicholson guy. Finally they went to a double bill of Cuckoo's Nest and Last Detail and came back converted. I think it was the first time they'd seen a modern actor that was as great as the old stars they used to love.
I was a freshman in HS watching this movie in a theater, in Utah, but didn’t finish watching cause of an earthquake and everyone was ushered out.
My word all the talent in this movie. Not faces & bodies & CG but TALENT!
I watched this movie with my good friends Bill and Sue in Oklahoma City. Sue passed five years later Bill passed 36 years later. I sure miss them both!

No, that's the point. Most people are either part of the system or otherwise too dumbed down or pacified to realise they are the patients. Mr McMurphy represents the man that is too clever for the position he is in but is not 'part of the system', which is a position a lot of people can relate to. You can start that question by asking yourself where you live and what job you have. WARNING, thinking can be dangerous and the police state don't want that.
Hell yeah
Interesting that they deleted the last scene which, with Ratched's half-smile on becoming aware of McMurphy's antics, was indicative of a smidgeon of humanity on her part. Maybe at odds with the impression the director wanted to create.
Chucky, Doc Brown, The Joker and the Penguin all in the same table
I think remake this movie in 2022 is impossible. No one can replace this cast. Insane good actors.

He was Mr. Tabor the loudmouth. He was great as Dr. Emmitt Brown on Back To The Future
DANG those scenes are the heart of the movie, they really set up the main conflict eh? I _knew_ there must be something missing when i saw it again recently for the first time since its premiere, thanks very much for filling me in. Real shame its been so "sanitized"
I saw this movie when it came out,when Macmurphy took Ratchet by her throat people were cheering
That’s messed up
@Andrew Becker I did. I don’t think what she did was worth getting killed for.
@Andrew Becker She did not kill Billy, Billy was already suicidal for most of his life. She was a bitch and was cruel, don’t get me wrong, but she didn’t know it would lead to him killing himself.
@Andrew Becker She spoke up and embarrassed Billy, so that makes it ok for someone to choke her? Something doesn’t add up here.
@Andrew Becker now now it's only a film, a good one to say the least.
I could see why the last scene was cut. Louise Fletcher playing the head nurse was having a difficult time trying to keep her composure. That scene was hilarious.
Jack's eyes at the 3:50 mark. Like, "you gotta be fucking kidding me, but okay." Pure genius.
Never underestimate the power of a great hat and a good jacket.
This Nurse is fantastic

This movie NEVER ceases to amaze
It is brilliantly written, directed and performed

The book is amazing also, it was a golden period for movies, and this is one of the very best, when I watched it I believed most of the cast to be genuine patients.
Thanks for posting these clips. Short as they are, I can still feel them drawing me into that world. Brilliant. I find it interesting that the card scene at 0:20 resembles The Last Supper by Da Vinci. I have to wonder if it was just a compositional coincidence or were they consciously mirroring the apostles with the patients and McMurphy with Jesus. Maybe it seemed heavy handed, or they didn't want that association, and that's why it was cut. It's been too long since I saw this movie, I feel the need to watch it again with older, wiser eyes. Hopefully I won't sit there adding up the references, memes, movie trivia and stuff but just revel in one of the best movies ever made.
The “you must remain in your chair” part shouldn’t have been cut because it explains why in the “I want my cigs back” part the guy just sits there and lets it burn his leg
People have never been that friendly when I was in the cuckoo's nest
Thank you for posting … I must make sure my kids have seen this ❤️
All of the patients and staff’s faces are forever emblazoned in my brain and were from the 1st time that I saw this. They never realized how huge this movie was going to be. It put all of the actors on the map. Forever. Kirk Douglas’s biggest regret in life was not playing McMurphy when he had the chance. Turned it down. Jack Nicholson took a percentage of the profits rather than take a menial salary and he made millions.
Nobody wanted to do the movie and Michael Douglas got it done. Unbelievable. One of the greatest movies of all time.
kirk's not actor...
What does that mean ? “kirk’s not actor”. Actually - he’s dead. So yeah - he’s not acting if that is what your incomplete sentence minus any punctuation means.
I thought that Kirk and Michael had agreed that Kirk was too old for the role.
@Patrick: Kirk did have the opportunity to play the role. I remember him talking about it in one of his last interviews.
Kirk played the role on Broadway he gave the script to Michael as a gift. While Michael worked on “Streets of San Francisco”, he came in contact with the man who owned Fantasy Records, the great jazz label, Saul Zantz. Saul had the money and was interested in producing movies, Michael had the script and they decided to do it while sailing on Saul’s boat the Summer before.
One of the greatest movies ever made, and featured so many actors who had great careers, Devito, Nicholson, Samson and Christopher Lloyd. The closing theme is a haunting melody. Watched it 3 of 4 times at least.
And Brad Dourif, the voice of Chucky!
I saw it in 1988 or 87

It was shot in an actual hospital. Some of the patients took part - and the chief psychiatrist was played by - the chief psychiatrist...... but naive viewers often think, that Louise Fletcher is somewhat like her role. She is NOT! She is just talented enough to convince on screen!

This film is still one of the best. What even better is the book. All told from the Chiefs perspective. There's a reason he's in there.
I never heard that...Thank you
Yes indeed - if you like the movie and can read, you are in for a great adventure. The book is way better than the movie and hopefully one day a miniseries could be made from it, incorporating the visions and thoughts of Chief Broom about Control, which never got into the movie and gives the Cuckoo's Nest its true depth and importance.

Within 2 days, I was getting extra food,hanging out with the orderlies allnight, spitting out my meds, and then when they were going to release me, the nurse gave me $75, and then another nurse gave me $75, and then when I was out the door, another nurse gave me $75 in the parking lot!!😁 BUT I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER NOW!!🙃
Невероятный фильм. Милош Форман снял шедевр... Куда делось настоящее кино сегодня? Остаётся просто пересматривать классику...
You can see why they were deleted. Editing is an incredible art form. These scenes seem clunky, obvious and heavy handed, but among the rest of the film, it must be so hard to know what to leave out and what works. When it's part of the movie as a whole it must seem like it works, but when separated and apart from the final film, it seems obvious that these scenes don't fit. Brilliant all the same. What a cast. What a film.
Getting welcomed to the ward was very unnecessary.
That guy who smokes the cigarette is Vincent Schiavelli. He also played the ghost in the subway in the movie "Ghost" who breaks a cigarette machine and wishes he could smoke. Stangely enough Schiavelli died of lung cancer at 57

And it's absurd to think Jack Nicholson the person is anything like McMurphy or that he didn't have to act or that bullshit. Nicholson was a highly disciplined professional who worked his way up through the Hollywood studio system from a low level grunt to writing screenplays and studying acting in some of the most rigorous and demanding workshops in existence. He learned classical piano when he was in his 30s and was an intellectual who hung out with boundary pushing artists and the old guard Hollywood people. He's nothing like McMurphy. But he understood the character so deeply and his acting chops were so refined and also modern (Marlon Brando modern plus a little something else) that people cannot see the technique. That's a master. Just like it doesn't look hard to do what Johnny Carson did all those years when you watch him. Just looks like he's the kind of guy who was just naturally suited to show up and be all relaxed and right in the pocket...but that's not a job anyone could just naturally walk into and do...but he was a master, too. I'm still so inspired by both of them. I just love to watch people where you can't see any of the seams and shit. It's so cool.
These are really good Olivia, any deleted scenes from such a great movie are great to see!

I first saw this movie at the drive - in , in the year of 1975 . It was a moving experience even though I could only relate to it as one man against the system . Instead of the system against everyman and freedom . Something we need to keep In mind as Nurse Ratchet's s everywhere clamp down upon us !
The first 50 seconds looks like the day room at the Army barracks I lived in back in the day. Especially the lewd playing cards. Spot on.
