- In another group therapy session, Nurse Ratched hones in more closely on Billy...forcing him to draw back upon his troubled past. [Featuring Brad Dourif as Billy Bibbit]
Billy's so precious.
Yeah, until he betrayed all of Rohan to Sarumon....he wasn't so precious then.
BuckandOden best comment.
Billy is so adorable. I just love his sweetness and innocence on this movie
Me enamoré de él ❤
@@veronicasantana4342 Yes! Yes! Veronica!❤
2:36...I always liked how Billy looked up with surprise when he realized that one of the guys was sticking up for him, and by someone who normally wouldn't have.
And what was nurse Ratchets excuse about that? That he was being a follower not a leader because he was laughing along with somebody else ?
@@deanfarr3249i dont think cheswick was laughing at billy, if you look st his character in the movie he is very timid and empathetic i dont see him as a bully or go along with bullying
Chezwick was speaking the truth and that says a lot
I think Cheswick's respectful but firm defense of Billy was the beginning of Randall's drawing this group out of their collective shells and getting them to advocate for themselves. Something that institution clearly did not want.
Sloop true
Facts!! And it pissed her off
@@Turkanation When logic and morality is presented to malignant psychopathic narcissists, they get pissed off. They can't help it.
Maybe you are right "A Clockwork Orange" avatar...
Those blue eyes, that smile..... Brad was beyond cute
He wasn't so cute as Chucky.
@Brandon Allen After all, getting old really sucks anyway. ‘Cause he voiced Chucky for nearly 30 years. 30 FUCKING YEARS!!
@@brandonallen3289 i still find him cute
@Russell Collier Brad is still Chucky regardless.
@@brandonallen3289 Looks aside, Brad's an outstanding actor...in this and especially playing 'Wormtounge' in Lord of the Rings. He's very flexible in his different roles, never the same. The guy that plays Cheswick was really good in this scene as well...and those cold dagger eyes from Nurse Ratched (Wretched)...momma mia...she would give Mike Tyson the willies...
Best acted movie of all time.
Period.
no argument here.
Totally agree.
Yup.
100% facts.
It’s the only movie I’ve seen more than 10 times. And I probably saw it 20 times. In fact, I’m about to watch it again - it’s been awhile.
The film is a study in acting excellence. Every character was PERFECT and played their parts PERFECTLY. Unreal.
Brad did such amazing job playing this role, he should've got a Oscar
Fuck the Oscar,get him in your mind for that.thats all
Was nominated at least .. great scene
Practically everybody who acted in this deserved an Oscar.
This is the type of character you fall in love with, like Jack in titanic, but it’s all fake and you have to disengage wishing only you could find someone this beautiful in real life
It’s an illusion, I wish until it all breaks down and it’s not as great as you think it is, makes you realize the world is not as magical as you want it to be
The nurse gets annoyed when the guys feel any emotion except shame and self-loathing.
She was the devil
Nurse Ratchet is one of the most evil people in cinematic history
Have sadly worked with some extremely cruel unpleasant nurses in a 45+ nursing career. One would have been too many. There were several.....
@@nancyj.ellington6407 tell me how the worst usually are. overweight? blak, whlte? straight, lesb0, married single? feminist for sure is dangerous. there is usually a pattern .
Yep, because she knows she has no power over them when they feel good about themselves. She has to keep them broken down so she can control them. Vile woman.
Nurse Ratched was the only psychopat in that room
h
lol
Yes. Glad someone said it.
Good Morning Goran Brekalo, I hope things are going well in your life. I am just responding to say that I wholeheartedly agree. That's the correct term and dia(GNOSIS): psychopath. The irony is that she's the sickest 'person' of all in the ward. And we know that the etymological basis of the word psychopath literally means "sickness of the mind" (Pathos meaning sickness, right? And the prefix which we all know comes from the psyche and mind). God bless you Goran. I don't know you but as a fellow human being, I wish you well! Cheers from Africa!
@Matt Glass Which is technically an antisocial leadership style.
See how the moment she sees him laughing she mentions to him his greatest fear: his mother
Like the true predator that Nurse Ratched is.
Especially since privacy laws (such as HIPPA, wasn’t around until 1996) weren’t really a thing yet
Billy’s eyes are smiling looking the others fellas than suddenly straight face staring at Ms Ratched.
Great acting though!
☺️😌
Complete dominance from rachet that's what he portrayed in this masterful scene...
Great acting by Billy boy
Or brad dourif
Love how Chiswick sympathies with belle and humbly tries to help him without looking down on belle without trying to appear as a saviour, love chiswick and wish to have such friend
Cheswick had a big heart. I don't think he was sick, he was just a sensitive man who felt very strongly.
@@silversnail1413 Even McMurphy said that nothing was wrong with anyone in that institution. He said exactly this, “ You’re no crazier than the average asshole walking down the street and that’s it!!!!”
In contrast to the fued between Mr Harding and Nicolson. I always laugh at the fishing boat scene where Jack name drops all of them with the title doctor in front in them whereas it's just Mr Hardon. Lmao
Flawless. Why can't movies be made this way, today???
"Why can't we go on to some new business?" omg Mr. Cheswick you are SO right! Tell it to this 'nurse' and her "therapy". That's not therapeutic when someone is berating you with questions that you feel uncomfortable answering. This is just plain WRONG.
Ah Juicy fruit
@@v84u2fear you sly son of a bitch.
Love it how Cheswick says 'Oh my God' and Nurse Ratched answers him as if he had been directly addressing her. Reveals a lot about her perceived power that she wields over them.
Idk about that. It’s more of how social interactions were back then. Nowadays people talk and say things and talk over each other, but back then you never spoke unless spoken to, so cheswick saying omg was out of turn and needed to be addressed. It’s something you notice when talking to someone from that generation vs talking to someone now. Nowadays everyone is eager to say what they want to say instead of just waiting and listening
@@SunDogGod Yes, but I've noticed it's the younger generations that do that and talk more than listen. I'm not sure if it's an assertive thing, an ego thing, or a control thing. Not many choose to listen these days...just blah, blah, blah...with very little content. It's tough to be "older" these days and have to endure getting interrupted and talked over by recent grads that are just starting their careers....they seem to bask in the attention...it's so different these days than even just 20 years ago...
@@harrykadaras9459 The younger generation just sees through the lies that you guys took up the rear with a smile, no lube was even required. You helped them run the country into the ground. All while you argue over what color you are. They talk like you are idiots because you act like it. Trying to get everyone to believe your lie to make yourselves feel better. She is correct here as every single god we create, every celebrity, leader, symbol, name, idea, etc thinks they have some kind of authority because we give it. We constantly lift people above us as if they are better than us when we are all in the same damn spot. A word has absolutely no real meaning and people need to understand that. The feelings are what provides everything meaning. We literally die for each other daily. We are all dying to be here and we are mad at everyone except the rich idiots who create all the problems that we cannot stand, but we need them to solve them.
Nurse Ratched: Mr. Cheswick...look at me. Im god.
Exactly, granted zeitguists have changed but she didn't want any emotional rescuers of the ones she was trying to control. It was like Chrzwick interrupted her hypnotic routine grooming of Billy and had to be separately scorned for rescuing.
Brad's voice is deep, yet soothing.
Too bad he’s old and it really sucks, ‘cause he was adorable. And you ain’t so cute anymore when you’re old.
@@dannythomas417 It happens to us all.
@@dannythomas417 not sure why you felt the need to say that. You could say that about basically anyone
@@dannythomas417 nah, I'd still hit on him if I ever met him
As a stutterer myself since the age of 4 I found this very uneasy to watch but it was brilliantly done so accurate.
Yeah me too, I am Italian so I watched the film dubbed in italian and the first thing I'm doing is watching the Billy's scenes on you tube in original language and I have to say that he was so real, brilliant
Oh goodness gracious Brad Dourif was quite beautiful when he was younger😍🤤
The eyes still have it 😍
@@cynthiamesa4892 Right!? His eyes make me weak😍
There's a clear conflict of interest going on here. Nurse Ratchet is friends with Billy's domineering mom. This puts Billy in an awkward situation. He basically has to open up to his mom's best friend. Even though Ratchet can't tell Billy's mom what he said, there's no way for him to know she wouldn't. That's why he feels so uncomfortable to open up. Thank goodness Cheswick stuck up for him in this scene.
McMurphy had the right idea of what Billy really needed. To be able to act like a regular young man. Out of all the characters in this movie, I felt sorry for Billy the most. He just needed his mom and Ratchet to back off. How sad is it that McMurphy, a criminal, cared more about him than either his mom or Ratchet?
One important thing to notice in this scene is that while everyone in the room is wearing white, cheswick is wearing a black coat over it. It symbolizes how he is gaining his own sense of individuality, how he is learning to stand up to nurse rat shit and not conform to what he is expected to be
Or maybe he was just wearing the coat cause he felt cold.
his bipolar
@@PoisonelleMisty4311 being bipolar is having a mental conflict. It's nothing chemical about it. Bipolar disorder can be treated through logic
@@sidgillespie5879 no, he's definitely starting to stand up to her. Which is why she had him shocked like Murphy. She was losing control of him. Notice how he didn't stutter when standing up to her. He was showing some sense of individuality and confidence which she completely tried to destroy like she was doing to Billy. Cheswick didn't let that slide. So he got angry at her. Which is why. She had him shocked
@@davidsalinas9 really! I've been manic depressive my entire life. The entire sense of being manic is without logic. You're absolutely wrong. But lithium in the correct dose does help.
she's so beautiful yet creepy. like an ice sculpture.
she is too old to be beautiful wtf
Unfortunately she won't melt
The range on Brad Dourif... I didn't even realize this was him until In Search of Darkness made me look at his imdb.
Brad Dourif sounds like a very innocent Chucky here. You can also tell how young he was. WOW
As someone who stutters, god he got the ticks, blocks, pausss and body language all on point. Amazing actor, he should’ve got more roles
I wish they could have awarded TWO Best Supporting Actor Academy Awards in 1976. George Burns won for "The Sunshine Boys" but the excellent performance that Brad Dourif gave in this film also was deserving of a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award as well. His acting in this film ALSO was superb and very deserving of an Oscar!!!!!
And it was only Brad’s first movie.
Nicholson was amazing too. I think his best film.
Who would have guessed Billy Bibbit was also Grima Wormtongue in Lord of the Rings? Excellence knows no limits
Also, Charles Lee Ray (Chucky)
He plays a very intense role as a small town sheriff, Who plays a wife beater, a racist, and a high ranking klansmen in the movie. Mississippi burning, And he holds his own along and next to the great Gene Hackman. He is so small town evil, that you can't help but hate his character. I'm sure in real life he is very nice, I always thought he could be Don knot's Son etc.
And Doc Cochran from "Deadwood."
Brad was so awesome the way he’s relax and smile between the times she says billy then come to serious attention added to the child like Billy’s character
Brad Dourif is a cinnamon roll
he was a good looking man.very ahead of his time with the hairstyle to
YES..... Absolutely DELICIOUS!!!
@@HeartWorX.Creations Indeed my friend.
Gemini killer
@Christopher Bascom The Gemini is dead.
Brad douriff as an actor is on another level the man needed an Oscar for this
He DID win an Oscar I believe
That movie won Oscars for EVERYTHING
@@kathyhenderson1950 he was nominated but didn’t win. Unfortunately
Chezwick here was exhibiting something Nurse Ratched was devoid of: empathy
Cant get enough of this movie man been years but I come back to watch this precious interplay of characters
It's incredible that he got an Oscar nomination for his first big role on film. Brad Dourif is SO underrated, I've never seen a bad performance out of him. In fact he's the best part of some of them. A couple of the movies in the Child's Play series aren't great, Patient X single-handedly saved The Exorcist III... he deserves for people to know him outside of voicing Chucky.
Never have I seen a better portrayal of the abuse of human rights, dignity, whatever you want to call it. I know this goes on in real life and am embarrassed and extremely concerned that I have to share the planet with people like this!
I've never got why some people become nurses or get some other kind of job where you're supposed to help and care for other people but they become sadistic to the ones they're supposed to help
at 1:06 those facial expressions and laugh were Oscar worthy it's just incredible acting! to act so realistic!!
This is a very powerful scene so brilliantly acted by Brad Dourif. It's painful to watch as Billy suffers at Ratched's manipulation of the conversation.
Brad should of got an Oscar award for his performance as Billy!... :)
This movie has such an all star cast
He's so adorable! I get to play him in my school's production of this show :D
Congratulations Jacob! How did your show go? I bet you were great! What a great honour to play Billy he is such a top notch important character! Good for you! You must be handsome to have played Billy I adore him!
Noones mentioned Brad douriff in exorcist 3 as the Gemini killer ...awesome acting ... must see !!!!
thank you for recognizing that amazing film🤗 one of his best performances in my opinion!
There is no scarier thing than the moment of epiphany
.. finally realizing you are truly looking into the eyes and mouth of a serpent queen....
Definitely felt emotion for Billy. Brad Dourif did a brilliant job playing the role. Of course Louise Fletcher also played her role as Nurse Ratched excellently, which makes us all hate her character. Especially in moments such as this scene.
Brad was cheated out of his best supporting role Oscar, but made a name for himself as CHUCKY THE KILLER DOLL
Award shows are rigged, always have. At least Nicholson won for lead.
This movie is one of the best movies of all time I've watched it many times and every time i see it i always see something new a pure 5 star classic
This movie is a classic.
I don't recall if it was ever addressed in the movie, but in the book, this was a VA mental hospital. Nurse Ratched was an army nurse (and I think possibly an officer). All of the men on the ward were veterans, and while they never talked about Billy's service, he would have been in the military too. Chief was in the army. Mac was a war hero who led an escape from a Chinese POW camp during the Korean War, and admitted to torture and attempted brainwashing, at one point even "complimenting" Nurse Ratched that his captors could have "learned a thing or two" from her about mind games.
nice to know thanx. in this movie they were civilians and mac was a prisoner who intentionally played nuts to go to the hospital thinking would.be better than prison.
@@flowrepins6663 In the book, Mac was arrested and sent to a prison work farm. He was sent for evaluation because of his anti-social behavior, with the note that they thought he was "faking it" to get out of work. Because he was a veteran, he was sent to the VA mental hospital.
brad got some serious hipster hair
Hans Castorp before it was cool
Hans Castorp - luv his hair & those blue eyes!!! Yummy mommy!!! Lol
Greaser hair. If you le that then watch The Outsiders. Great movie
Billy is the heart of the movie
Brad Dourif was an absolute genius of an actor in this, so untouchable and incredible
Watching this particular scene now as an adult (I was adolescent when this flick came out), I see how more acutely demented - the nurses “method” of therapy truly is...I recall when seeing this for the first time, how disturbing it was & FEELING Billy’s fear of expressing his thoughts/feelings w/the group, namely Nurse Ratched! Looking at the performance done by such a young Brad Dourif, -WOW- I’m no actress, but when I ponder of how it must be to “play” a character in any given move/scene, to be able to portray acting such as this-so simple yet INTENSE, is jus absolutely PHENOMENAL in my opinion!!! Wow, jus so intense...did I say INTENSE???!!!!! 😳👍😱❗️❗️❗️
Yes, they _all_ should have got an Oscar for it, not just the main characters, but all the others, too! Actually anyone who contributed something to the film.
This is indeed true film history.
Dang. I forgot I was watching a UA-cam clip until it ended. Great film
Brad Dourif is a genius.
46 years later and he's still a knockout!
so, I just met Brad and Fiona Dourif, tell me how Fiona told me I looked like Billy Bibbit 😮🔥🤭
all the actors in this movie were compelling Brad Dourif won a Golden Globe for this
And only his first movie too.
My favourite actor in this movie
Brad Dourif is a very underrated actor.
I had no fucking idea that Billy was played by Brad Dourif until I saw his name in the credits, holy shit.
And how about Brad's physical acting? Freaking legend
The best actors ever!!!!!
There all super in this
Louise Fletcher is gorgeous. A very intelligent woman as well.
Black Death 1347 - she’s 85 now, old & fat, rather ugly - lol
@@jolenaagapisou3803 Same hot woman on the inside.
Valerie Konstantos 😲🤣
But she is evil in the movie though
@@jolenaagapisou3803 And she's still WAY hotter than you.
Brad Douriefs best role.
And it’s only his first.
Absolute masterpiece
Louise Fletcher was beyond brilliant in this film.
They all were. God, I wish dying wasn’t part of life, let alone getting old.
Should have won Oscar . Was nominated
Oscars are dog shit anyway. But at least Jack won.
@@dannythomas417 hmmm
MY BOYFRIEND AND THE MAN OF MY DREAMS
Hes in his 60s now
* 70.
R. V. i’ll be back in 10 years to comment 80s
Same actor who plays Chucky. Let that sink in. What a “doll”! 😉
Louise Fletcher won 3 awards for her portrayal of Nurse Ratched. Well deserved.
"well.. well.. well I was in LOVE with her..."
Every scene of that picture is a fucking gem.
Some of the people in the room don’t even belong in the word. Someone like billy, who has a stutter, isn’t dangerous on the level that he should be put in a ward. Ratched deserves to be put away somewhere.
yeah, he's not dangerous for society but he needs some kind of therapy because of the suicide attempts
For as much as I see clips here & there of this movie . I’ve never seen this movie like ever why is beyond me I need to see this one seriously
This scene >>> Entire Chucky collection
I LOVE HER EYES
Her evil ass depraved eyes?? lol
Cheswick earned himself a spot on Nurse Ratched's shit list for the comment he made.
Grima Wormtongue in Lord of the Rings
Doc Cochran in Deadwood
Brad is beautiful.. sexy and talented still at 74 those blue eyes ❤
I used to stutter just like billy did but even worse, I could not even talk for 3 1/2 Years, People would make fun of me in school. But I finally did come around and it was like the weight of the world was lifted off of my shoulders, Kids can be cruel and it is not funny. I had to fight my way out of it.
Doctor Emmett, The Peguin, Joker, and Chucky are in the same movie
Good observation. I didn't even catch that.
2 antagonists of 1988 in 1 movie. Judge Doom (Baron Von Rotten) and Chucky (Charles Lee Ray)
@@kantoking1518 3. Joker is evil too.
Batman wasn’t until a year later in the early 90s. I’m talking about the Super L80s. (Super 80s + Super ladies + late 80s)
At 1:15 I hate how Billy goes along with everyone and laughs at himself. It shows he has destroyed his self confidence that he makes fun of himself too on things that he cares the most about
Or maybe it shows that he's able to see the humour in things?
@@fro_e No.
@@delete---7593 Compelling argument. I concede.
laughting is always good
This movie was totally awesome. Watch it on BlueRay or even an old DVD and it looks amazing clear for being recorded so long ago.
Kinda makes me sick that they're trying to turn Ratched into a YAS Queen with that Netflix show.
It's like they never even saw the movie.
I think the same way.
0:59 Isn't the guy on the right not Johnny, the wise cracking shoe shine guy from Police Squad who knows an answer to everything from people around town, psychology and the newest music trends, sports and surgery? 🤔😀
Love this flick, but I hate how Ratched used her long-standing friendship with Billy’s mother to ultimately destroy him.
Sociopaths collect an arsenal of psychological weapons to control & harm others. Beware of the overly friendly inquisitive person esp on first encounter with them.....
her mother is part of it for sure
Ernie Harwell on the radio announcing the game. He was an announcer for the Detroit Tigers tip
Brad was soo effing cute in this movie
She is the very definition of a sociopath
George Burns for the Sunshine Boys?? please, more proof that the Oscars are lame. Brad Dourif was the obvious choice, but the Academy got sentimental.
They do that often.
Damn right
@@m.e.d.7997 Well Burns was a vet, while Dourif was a rookie.
The Big Nurse even looks like Pap's caretaker,Donna..
Acts like her, talks like her, has her complete attitude.
Living with this woman in the house is a real trial...
Back in the winter of 75' this movie hit the theatres, Cuz Al and I (a couple of old Van, BC hippy boys)
were up in Edmonton Alberta, well we went to the theatre and both did a hit of acid and walked in ..
when it was over we were peaking and walked home across town in the coloured sparkly snow
Hit the US theatres in early Fall 1975.
Ratched is a real
Catch

KILLER EYES
She has nice eyes
This movie and this evil human being brings back memories of the first time I ever had to hold back my anger.
What brilliant movie
what its absolutly new for me to hear is the fact that groups of "therapy" were involved around the social context of that time this is impressive thought that kind of "tool" was only used to work within "new age psycologist" atmosphere".
Nurse seems to present kind of DSM phyco. How she pressed sadically onto the young boy is just TERRIFIC
amazing
Ratched is just like a Catholic nun back in the day. No question...she was in the wrong uniform.
I believe you. Trust me i've seen kinder women in authority than those types.
Perfect analogy, coming from a gal who was attending a catholic school in the 60’s from 1966-1972, ohhh, some of those nuns were absolute BITCHES!!!!! Meaner than U could imagine...HATED that school w/a passion!!!
Louise Fletcher is great at playing people you despise. Hard choice between this cow and Vedek Winn as more insufferable.
I loved Chez.
Is that Wormtongue?
If this(!!) is therapy(!), I think it's better for all patients to remain untreated for the rest of their lives ...
IT is reality
Now I see why they call her Ratcheted
Interesting that both Brad Dourif and Sydney Lassick went on to play in The X-Files.
Whereas Nicholson and Danny DeVito would play Batman villains.
@@dannythomas417 Apparently, Dourif was considered for the role of Joker before Nicholson.
Pretty sure they drew inspiration for Joan Ferguson from Prisoner Cell Block H and Wentworth from Nurse Ratchet.
