SYNOPSIS
If an irresistible force meets an immovable object, there's going to be an explosion. So, when life-loving, free-spirit Randle McMurphy plays crazy in order to avoid prison and finds himself locking horns with icy cool, dictatorial Nurse Ratched, it can only mean trouble. The boisterous, brawling petty criminal becomes an accidental revolutionary as he fights to free his fellow patients from the tyranny of the Big Nurse. Funny, shocking and profoundly moving, this is a true American classic!
