When you ask psychiatrists about films they find useful in teaching about their profession, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, which won several academy awards, including Best Picture, is still a classic that makes their list. Based on Ken Kesey’s 1962 novel of the same name, this film is about a prisoner malingering as “insane” who is sent to a psychiatric hospital in Oregon (where the film was shot) to be assessed for competency.
