Randall P. McMurphy is admitted to a psychiatric clinic to escape prison. Discovering the oppression by the caregivers and the distress of the patients, he incites a rebellion within the institution.
"Milos Forman combines the rebellious spirit of his Czech films with the mechanisms of Hollywood protest cinema. More than an indictment against psychiatric hospitals, the film becomes, from jubilant sequences to moments of intense emotion, the metaphor of a society based on repressive systems and phenomena of exclusion. A tragic hymn to freedom and resistance." (Le Guide Cinéma, Ed. Télérama)
"The acting honors are shared by Nicholson with a large and almost totally unfamiliar but meticulously well-chosen supporting cast. He and they constitute an ensemble whose quality is such that they always seem characters colliding and never acting." (Los Angeles Times)
