One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) at the Regal Columbiana Grande

The Oscar-winning classic One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and there will be special screenings held in its honor. This is one I really enjoyed back in the day and I hope this holds up.

Let’s go to the 7:00 PM showing at the Regal Columbiana Grande. You can purchase tickets on their website or app.

This theater has assigned seating, so if you want to seat together, we need to coordinate/plan ahead. Once you purchase your ticket, please say where you are sitting in the comments section below.

Summary: When Randle Patrick McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) gets transferred for evaluation from a prison farm to a mental institution, he assumes it will be a less restrictive environment. But the martinet Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher) runs the psychiatric ward with an iron fist, keeping her patients cowed through abuse, medication and sessions of electroconvulsive therapy. The battle of wills between the rebellious McMurphy and the inflexible Ratched soon affects all the ward's patients.
