One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
1975/11/19 (US) | Drama
If he's crazy, what does that make you?
A petty criminal fakes insanity to serve his sentence in a mental ward rather than prison. He soon finds himself as a leader to the other patients—and an enemy to the cruel, domineering nurse who runs the ward.
