One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest plot summary
Randle Patrick McMurphy (Nicholson) has been dating a fifteen year old (fifteen going on thirty-five) and is sentenced for a short term for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. 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 (Fletcher) becomes his personal cross to bear as his resistence to the hospital routine gets on her nerves.
