ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST (1975) Movie Reaction w/ Coby FIRST TIME WATCHING

Jack is back, Coby is back - it's all gonna be alright.

The American Film Institute voted Nurse Ratched one of the 5 biggest villian in American Film history. This movie (and Ken Kesey's novel) are about how our instituting strip away our freedoms. Nurse Ratched represents the institutions, pretending to help us but acting to dehumanizing us. McMurphy represents free will, trying to save the others from their subjugation. The fact that most of the men are self- committed shows how we participate in our own dehumanization. It's a really, really dark story.

I love how McMurphy introduces each patient as "Doctor" except for the pompous Harding who is introduced as "Mr. Harding."

Christopher Lloyd and devito both starred in tv show “ taxi” which is absolutely hilarious.

Winner of 5 Oscars including Best Picture.

I was a bit stunned when Coby indicated she is older than 38. She looks way younger than that.

Chief is one of my favorite characters in all of film.

so many things to say about this film - so i won't say nuttin'! there's a movie from 1967 called "cool hand luke" starring paul newman also with a GREAT ensemble cast that deals with the same themes as this. except it takes place on a southern chain-gang. a few other great films from this era include "the graduate" (1967), "bonnie and clyde" (1967), "midnight cowboy" (1969), "deliverance" (1972), "dog day afternoon" (1975) and "network" (1976). all the films listed are MUST-SEE films for any movie aficionado. watch ALL these films and your viewers will LOVE YOU! thanks for the video.

Chief putting him out of his misery is one of the sweetest, intimate, and heartbreaking scenes.

The book was from the "Chiefs" perspective. As a 10-12 year old in the mid 70s we had some great movies. Dog-day Afternoon with Al Pacino (true story "MOSTLY") about a bank robbery gone wrong is another mid 70s classic.

As someone who actually worked in a state mental hospital, I can attest to the accuracy of this film.

22:52 She wants to keep him there so she can break him. She's all about maintaining control.

Coby I know in reactions in the past you have stated your age in a round about way. Then you say Jack Nicholson is younger than you when he filmed Cuckoo Nest, but it still is shocking. You look in your 20’s. 👏👏👏 Standing ovation for you, wow. Love your reactions. ❤

This is where The Joker, The Penguin and Doc Brown went insane.

Milos Forman directed this, I can recommend Amadeus if you want to see something else by him. The People vs Larry Flynt is also pretty good but the content is not for everyone.. The nurse was evil. Everything she was doing was for the purpose of maintaining total control. She never actually helped anyone. I think that's why she wanted to keep McMurphy there. He was helping them and that threatened her authority. She couldn't tolerate the idea that he'd get away with challenging her so she made it her business to break him. That's why she deliberately triggered Billy at the end. She got back at McMurphy in a way that she knew would hurt him. If he does nothing about it, he looks weak in front of the other patients. If he does something about it, he falls into her trap. McMurphy wins though. He is set free of that place and inspires Chief to escape. That's how I see this story.

Jack Nicholson. The greatest living actor. " The Last Detail" is incredible.

Such an absolute classic, and IMO one of Nicholson's best roles. He literally gives every ounce of everything he has to this role. His Oscar for this role is SO well deserved, as is Louise Fletcher's oscar. Just a brilliant movie.

One of the many masterpieces of art that we had in the period between the 60s and the 80s. An unrepeatable period in the history of human beings. Nowadays the quality of the filmmakers and above all of the audiences is too low to be able to replicate that

Cuckoo's Nest was directed by Milos Forman, a famous Czech director who came to US in 1968. This movie is a commentary on communism. In the 1960's, the communist government of Czechoslavakia allowed unusual amount of freedom to film makers. Some great movies came out of that Czech New Wave, including Forman's The Firemen's Ball and my favorite and one of the greatest movie about the Holocaust, The Shop on Main Street.

Younger than you??? What???🧡
