In this episode, the Retro Movie Geek crew is joined, once again, by the lovely Trista Robinson (see more from Trista HERE and HERE), and they're geeking out over One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975) and



the amazing castbehind the scenesMcMurphy vs. Ratchedrealismand much, much more!Synopsis:



A nice restin a state mental hospital beats a stretch in the pen, right? Randle P.
McMurphy (Jack Nicholson), a free-spirited con with lightning in his veins, andglib on his tongue, fakes insanity and moves in with what he calls the “nuts”.



Immediately,his contagious sense of disorder runs up against numbing routine. No way should
guys pickled on sedatives shuffle around in bathrobes when the World Series ison. This means war!



On one sideis McMurphy! On the other is soft-spoken Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher), among
the most coldly monstrous villains in film history! At stake is the fate of everypatient on the ward!
