Ensemble at it's finest

Rating: Null/10 (12 March 2018)

While Nicholson gives a bravura performance, it is the players, the other patients, who give this film the charm and vrisimilitude which makes Cukoo an enduring classic. A very young Danny Divito and Christopher Lloyd, as well as Will Sampson, as "Chief", turn in especially charming performances. Of a certain age, the line, "Mmmmmm, Juicy Fruit." can bring a smile to anyone's face.
