Hit me!!!!

Film inoubliable, grosses barres en vue et des personnages qui prennent aux tripes. Émouvant aussi.
Un regard cru sur l' usage des camisoles chimiques dans le milieu hospitalier des années 60 aux US, une approche sociologique aussi: les boss sont blancs, le sale boulot échoit aux noirs, et les indiens...ben y' en a plus qu' un et il se cache de la folie des hommes là où ils viendront plus le chercher: chez les dingues.
Aussi une réflexion sur la monstruosité, banale, normalisatrice, qui mène son inexorable travail de sape . Chief, l'indien, l' explique bien:

Chief: My pop was real big. He did like he pleased. That's why everybody worked on him. The last time I seen my father, he was blind and diseased from drinking. And every time he put the bottle to his mouth, he didn't suck out of it, it sucked out of him until he shrunk so wrinkled and yellow even the dogs didn't know him.

McMurphy: Killed him, huh?

Chief Bromden: I'm not saying they killed him. They just worked on him. The way they're working on you.
