Tagline:If he's crazy, what does that make you?
Plot:McMurphy, a man with several assault
convictions to his name, finds himself in jail
once again. This time, the charge is statutory
rape when it turns out that his girlfriend had
lied about being eighteen, and was, in fact,
fifteen (or, as McMurphy puts it, "fifteen going
on thirty-five"). Rather than spend his time in
jail, he convinces the guards that he's crazy
enough to need psychiatric care and is sent to a
hospital. He fits in frighteningly well, and his
different point of view actually begins to cause
some of the patients to progress. Nurse Ratched
becomes his personal cross to bear as his
resistance to the hospital routine gets on her
nerves.
