One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - Chief Speaks

This is the craziest he acts in the entire movie

I had a classmate just like him, wouldn't talk for months, and suddenly he would say one sentence and everyone freaked out...

I used to travel Center St. in Salem back in the day and passed by the Oregon State Hospital daily on my way to work. Was always kind of cool knowing they filmed a classic there.

And then he FLEW!

America’s downfall, psychiatry 💔⌛️💸.

What a great movie.

He played ten bears on out law josey wells ..

Yep, one of the best movies ever. The book by Ken Kesey is a must read, certainly adds to the movie, but obviously misses the imposed visual aspect. That aspect is a great achievement of the director, the cast. The movie is hilarious because of McMurphy's character, totally anti-totalitarian, pro-life, pro-freedom, all the things the USA lost as it is the USA that the cuckoo's nest portrays. The hate for personal freedom by the system, by the institutions is manifest in the movie and very tangible in modern western society. Ken Kesey was a visionary, way ahead of his time. Of course it is highly symbolic that the native american "Chief" escaped the system and became free after setting McMurphy's spirit free.

"ahhh juicy fruit"

Great movie.

If ever there was a magic moment in cinema and acting ability at its highest, Jack Nicolson and his counterpart show us why. I have never acted, but in my opinion acting is the most challenging and difficult of all the arts. Why do I say that? Because actors are like paintings and sculptures that come alive and when they momentarily take us away from everything and anything we're aware of, it is only then that your realize something extraordinary has happened. Moreover, the most beautiful and humble and gracious acknowledgement of Nicolson's achievement came from none other, Michael Douglas, who's father I believed wanted to do the role and it was Douglas who bought the rights to One Flew Over the Coocoo’s Nest. Michael Douglas said the same thing, that Nicolson was the not only the right man for the part, but the only one who could pull it off with perfection. I love the movies!!

That was a brilliant acting lesson in less than 2 minutes ...

All I see is 1 American and 1 Immigrant, sounds crazy to the one who lacks knowledge

"Mm, Juicy Fruit"... definitely in the top 10... no top 3 movie lines of all time.

The 1970s was the greatest decade for filmmaking because the decline of the studio system unleashed a wave of experimentation and rule-breaking, unlike today where corporations are only interested in packaging soulless content.

Ye they don’t make them like Jack anymore…..

This was my dad's favorite scene he used to laugh just thinking about it

juicy fruit is bangin even though it lasts 5 seconds

A superb film,

Ten Bears

The greatest movie EVER ❤

Thank God Jack Nicholson got the part and not Kirk Douglas.

This film is fantastic as I have been through the system people well don

My dad says the native american character is a guy from or around corpus christi texas.. Haven't looked it up yet

This so reminds me of when KT a once huge man from the village I grew up in. He was known to many as Kate even though he had a long beard. For a long time after having a motorcycle accident when he was young he never really spoke and played a fool. He used to give me a hand when I started working. I’ll never forget the time when we were out travellin in a van and had a mechanical issue. He just knew how to fix it explained it and was normal. I asked him why did he pretend to be stupid and the village fool when he wasn’t it was the Moment for me like when Jack Nicholson realised. He had been given electric shock treatment and discussed it in detail.
It wasn’t Juicy fruit for us it was Spam sandwiches. RIP Keith. I left the village many years ago and was informed recently this year Kate or Katy as they called him was as sitting on a park village bench ,by now an old old man when was killed by a Drink Driver.
You finally escaped Chief as did I.

Anyone else miss great movies such as this …
now a days it’s all woke bs

Jack Nicholson portrayed the mentally ill accurately
As if the shining wasn't one of his big
Crazy stuff

He hasn’t spoken in years and yet his voice isn’t even remotely croaky

The man fought poltergeist let him out

Great book. Thx, Ken. The movie i saw as a kid. Seeing this stirred-up old feelings. 🤔

Three geese in a flock. One flew east, one flew west, one flew over the cukoo's nest.

Sooo good. Movies is remarkably good and funny.

Great book. Great movie.

Will Sampson deserved an Oscar! ❤

What a scene!

The greatest thing about this scene is that Mac is so happy to talk to a sane person; which includes all the staff as well. The two only sane people in an insane asylum and they are the inmates.

For me, Chief was always the most memorable character in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

This movie was filmed about 6 blocks where I used to live as a child in Salem Oregon.

If they had been chewing Big Red, Nicholson probably would've kissed him.

5 academy awars won, and it has Christopher LLoyd and Danny Di Vito, who would work together on another great project, Taxi

Great movie

A classic example of the power of the individual over the system...which of course is one of the main points of the movie.

One of my all time favorite moments in movie history. 🙂❤️

Will Sampson......one only besides my dad I called Negè. Bigger than life. Bigger than death.

Enjoy it....

I mean, Wrigleys Juicy Fruit was the best flavour gum. I feel sad that it’s disappeared and been replaced by sugar free menthol scales 1-5. My kids will never know the delight of peeling back that foil and having their senses assaulted by that sweet soft piece of confectionary excellence. It was good while it lasted. You got it right Americans ❤ 🇬🇧

"Ahh, Juicy Fruit."

Love this scene.

Is that 10 bears from the outlaw josie Wales?

A better love story than twilight
