I've seen bits and pieces of this film so many times, but I believe this was the first time I saw it in it's entirety. It is truly a great film. I found it hard to finish however, because of the tragedy of Jack Nicholson's character. Watching him up-close go through electro-shocks, was painful because it was so realistic.
The film really makes you question what is sanity. Jack Nicholson went into the institution clinically sane, but did not make it out alive because he tried to control his environment too much.
That aside, the film is very well acted. I love the supporting roles played by Danny DeVito, Christopher Lloyd, and Vincent Schiavelli.
Definitely a movie to check out, as it is a quintessential classic.
