Classic Scenes (1 of 20)

We kick off our Classic Scenes feature this Sunday, with a wonderful and emotional one from a great film. Throwback Sundays remembers a classic scene from One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest.

Nicholson is brilliant as Randall McMurphy in the mental ward pretending to watch the World Series on a blank television, after Nurse Rached wouldnt allow the game to be watched.This is one of the greatest of all time. So many great moments. Unheralded acting performances by Danny Devito, Christopher Lloyd, and the debut of Brad Dourif as the stuttering Billy Bibbit. Dourif is more famous now for his role as Doc on Deadwood. All the patients in the ward were brilliant. Even Vincent Schiavelli, who played the science teacher in Fast Times.
