One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (1975)
This is a Movie Health Community evaluation. It is intended to inform people of potential health hazards in movies and does not reflect the quality of the film itself. The information presented here has not been reviewed by any medical professionals.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest has one scene where a light switch is flicked on and off several times to get the attention of the room, lasting about 30 seconds with the flashing being very mild.
A few intense scenes are filmed with handheld cameras with mild shaking. One sequence takes place on a boat that rocks naturally and turns in circles briefly. These parts of the movie take up a small amount of runtime, and the rest of the camera work is either stationary or very smooth.
Flashing Lights: 2/10. Motion Sickness: 2/10.
TRIGGER WARNING: The overall tone of indifference to the wellbeing of people with mental illness is likely to be upsetting. Stories are told of subjects that include statutory rape and suicide. Electroconvulsive therapy is depicted viscerally, with one character having an intense panic attack before being subjected to it. The aftermath of a death by suicide and of a lobotomy are shown. There are moments of cultural insensitivity against a Native American character.
