One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest/飞跃疯人院

This movie is about an abnormal phenomenon but so easy to neglect: there are always someone who destroy others' souls in the name of helping people, or even they themselves believe what they do is right and reasonable. However, these beneficent killers are more dangerous in the society because they kill in the name of kindness and they kill more souls than bodies. In the movie, we can see that every nurse was so cold-blooded while driving normal people crazy.

This movie also has its social meaning: what if the Cuckoo's Nest was the whole society? Can our society tolerate the existence of some non-orthodox people? Is it right to kill the diversity of the society just in order to keep the society "clean"? No, I think the answers to all of the questions are NO. However, we are still able to see the continuous tragedies like the one in the movie happening again and again, especially in those religious or totalitarian nations (needless to say in those marxist nations).

It is important for people to know that one need to learn to get out of his inside "cuckoo's nest", his inside hospital, never get to be institutionalized. This is far more important than get rid of a tatalitarian country he lives in.
