and everyone is soooo young!!! when i worked out martini was devito i let out a shreek like somone put ice down my pants... or a cigarette in my rolled trouser cuff.
@Alithecomedian haHAAA yeah. l8 night channel surfing has never been soo rewarding soo early in the prosess. i do remember bits from when i was young but violence and funny bits are all that stick at that age.... Aliens was my best childhood film, during primary years. then when i got to 8 i played GTA on ps1.... good times..... MAN that nurse was a bitch.
@MegaMaverick1994 basically just like in the novel Chief smothered him as a form of Euthanasia and for the other patients not to see McMurphy in a vegetable state in which the hospital wouldve used as an example to anybody who goes against the system. if you liked the movie you should defintely read the novel
I don't want to kill it for anyone and I love the ending the way it is. But I read the book b4 I watched the movie. And after i read the book, i thought - what if chief too got lobotomized and he was all just imagining it?
The 35th year of this classic (This clip personifies so much for me), I wish I could go down to Parsons, RIP OUT the fckn slopsink/dishpan with my bare hands, carry it over my head, and run with it down the hallway & THRASH IT out the barred windows symbolically to free what still haunts me & the all lost spirits of fallen comrades (including the mystic ballerina) IF they still may be walking the halls at night!! "C'mon Guys, I Wouldn't Leave You Here This Way, Your Coming With Me..., LETS GO!"
yes, everything about this scene is perfect...its so spiritual, from the music that slowly fades out to the chief running free into the horizon of an Oregon landscape...so great
I hate lobotomy's, they should of never been invented. Changing someones whole personality and being is just evil. I was so sad at the ending, poor mcmurphy is nothing.
This ending always makes me cry and want to cheer at the same time. I like to think the chief is running home to the natural communal life of his forefathers and away from the insanity of this world. This film is wonderful, I love the frail humanity of the inmates.
I've been watching this film for 23 years. I saw it on video the first time when I was sixteen, 23 years ago. My sister and I cried. It really is a remarkable piece of fim makeing. I think, however, Chief is heading straight for Canada. Do not fret, however, many Native American lands are there.
I agree with you almost verbatim. He doesn't kill McMurphy (he was already dead from the lobotomy) Instead, chief sets his spirit free. It would've remained trapped in an inert body. But his spirit and chief escape to the wilderness away from the totalitarian standards of the hospital. Great Fucking Movie!!!
I'm with you. Have you read the book? If not, please do. You'll get even more out of it! I saw the play in NY several years ago, it was excellent. Gary Sinese played Mac. Anyway, just wanted to say, "Hell ya, you're right"!
@onefive95 everybody saw a different ending to this great film... i'd like to think that the chief took Mcmurphy and Bibbit with him to Canada... well yea they died but you know what i'm talking about he took there spirits with him...and Mcmurphy courage to have the courage to lift that sink and throw it at that window like Mcmurphy wanted to do but couldn't because he wasn't strong enough.
that's a beautiful way to look at the ending mate.
the last 5 mins of this film contain more drama, sadness, and courage and hope than most films in a lifetime.
this film has to be one of the all time greats, and the final scenes always so moving no matter how many times i've seen them. but the ending you see is one to cherish....thanks for sharing with us.
Same. I can't help but tearjerking and smiling at the same time... Weird sensation. It may be the only movie I know that have such an effect on me -and the only one where a Native wins at the end-. Great !
This movie is even more touching than shawshank redemption, jack Nicholson is the best actor of all time.
