One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • McMurphy's fate.
  • Martini breaking the glass window with the basketball and then holding the broken basketball in front of Nurse Ratched asking her to make it well again. She didn't do it.
  • YMMV, but Cheswick's "I want something done!" rant. Pure Narm to some, but to others, it's just sad to see poor Cheswick freaking out like that.
  • "I feel as big as a damn mountain."
  • Perhaps the biggest tearjerker ever: the final scene.
