‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest’ To Screen at Arena Cinelounge May 25-31

Considered to be one of the greatest films ever made, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, (a 1975 American comedy-drama film directed by Miloš Forman, based on the 1962 novel by Ken Kesey), is No. 33 on the American Film Institute’s 100 Years… 100 Movies list.

Randie McMurphy has a criminal past, has once again gotten himself into trouble and is sentenced by the court. To escape labor duties in prison, McMurphy pleads insanity and is sent to a ward for the mentally unstable. Once here, McMurphy both endures and stands witness to the abuse and degradation of the tyrannical Nurse Ratched, who gains superiority and power through the flaws of the other inmates. McMurphy and the other inmates band together to make a rebellious stance against the Nurse. Ultimately, McMurphy makes a heroic sacrifice, for the redemption and freedom of the men of the ward.
