Antoine Pope plays the charming rogue (McMurphy) who contrives to serve a short sentence in an airy mental institution rather than in prison. This, he learns, was a mistake. He clashes with the head nurse (Ratched) , a fierce martinet, played by Arielle Wilburn. Quickly, he takes over the place and accomplishes what medical professionals have been unable to do for twelve years; he makes a presumed deaf and dumb Indian talk. He leads others out of introversion, stages a revolt so they can see the World Series on television, and arranges a rollicking midnight party with liquor and chippies. For one offense, the head nurse has him submit to shock treatment. The party is too horid for her and she forces him to submit to a final correction, a frontal lobotomy. Come see the struggle between society and the individual, the machine versus the man, an epic battle for power and control.
