A feisty misfit sent to a mental hospital inspires his fellow patients to assert themselves, much to the chagrin of the strong-willed head nurse, who turns out to be more dangerous than any of the inmates.

The film features an all-star cast including Jack Nicholson, Louise Flether, Will Sampson, Danny DeVito, William Redfield, Brad Dourif and Christopher Lloyd, with the latter two making their feature film debuts. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest  is produced by Michael Douglas and Saul Zaentz with cinematography by Haskell Wexler with additional photography by Bill Butler and William Fraker.
