Quotes

McMurphy: What do you think you are, for Chrissake, crazy or somethin'? Well you're not! You're not! You're no crazier than the average asshole out walkin' around on the streets, and that's it.

In the scene where the Chief smothers McMurphy, when the Chief pulls the pillow away from McMurphy's face, you can see McMurphy's tongue moving up and down even though he is supposed to be dead. See more...

Trivia

The film helped trigger the de-institutionalization movement in mental health care (i.e. "mainstreaming" patients into society through community-based, outpatient treatment, rather than imprisoning them in state mental hospitals) beginning in the 1970's. See more...

In the same session the writing on the board behind Nurse Ratchett changes: It says "No smoking in pool area", but when she says "You're making some very challenging statements" the text disappears for one shot.
