Well you're not! You're not! You're no crazier than the average asshole out walkin' around on the streets and that's it.

From IMDb's trivia:Con_Alma wrote: Chief is the man.
Will Sampson, who plays Chief Bromden, was a park ranger in Oregon in a park near where the movie was filmed. He was selected for the part because he was the only Native American the Casting Department could find who matched the character's incredible size

More from IMDb
wrote:Louise Fletcher was so upset with the fact that the other actors could laugh and be happy while she had to be so cold and heartless that near the end of production she removed her dress and stood in only her panties to prove to the actors she was not "a cold-hearted monster".
wrote:Ken Kesey, who wrote the original novel, said he would never watch the movie version and even sued the movie's producers because it wasn't shown from Chief Bromden's perspective (as the novel is)
wrote:Author Ken Kesey was so bitter about the way the filmmakers were "butchering" his story that he vowed never to watch the completed film. Years later, he claimed to be lying in bed flipping through TV channels when he settled onto a late-night movie that looked sort of interesting, only to realize after a few minutes that it was this film. He then changed channels.

I saw this one TCM the other day what a great movie! Randal Patrick McMurphy was a great character for Nicholson, and the amount of other great actors in this movie was astounding!
