Post-screening Q&A with Brad Dourif
Hudson Valley Picture Show
Special Guest: Brad Dourif, actor nominated for an Oscar, and won a Golden Globe and a BAFTA Award for his supporting role as Billy Bibbit in the film One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Maverick Hall, Woodstock
Milos Forman’s film, winner of five Oscars (including Best Picture) and nominated for four more, follows a troublemaker (Oscar-winner Jack Nicholson) who gets himself transferred from prison farm to mental institution. Once he starts banging heads with a totalitarian nurse (Oscar winner Louise Fletcher), he wonders if he made a mistake. Gorgeous to see (thanks to cinematographer Haskell Wexler), darkly funny, featuring a brilliant ensemble and rich with meaning, this film deserves repeated viewings. (U.S., 1974, 133m).
“***** … mesmerizing.” –The Guardian
