Restored & Unseen: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Milos Forman / US, 1975 / 132 min.

To mark the rerelease of The Shining this autumn, Restored & Unseen screens two classics starring Jack Nicholson: Five Easy Pieces and, today, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. This milestone in the history of film won five Oscars, including awards for Nicholson and Louise Fletcher. Nicholson stars as the rebellious McMurphy who is committed to a mental institution and openly challenges the authority of Nurse Ratched.
