Funny, sad, Brilliant - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest review by JD
When i was a lad, my dad told me this was a brilliant film.
30 years later - i watch it for the first time. And yep, its brilliant.
Its no wonder this is a staple of best film ever lists. Having recently also watched 12 angry men for the first time, I do wonder whats gone wrong in the movie industry that despite all the learnings and improvements - these very old films stand out as exceptional by modern standards.
