One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest


I really don't have to justify this. Jack Nicholson, an unrecognizable Danny Devito, and the incomparable Scatman Coruthers. Five Oscars (all legitimate such as Picture, Actor, Actress, and Director), and the number nine ranking on the imdb top 250. 

2 Sentences or Less: This was a damn good film, and it was actually entertaining unlike some of the other "great" films that just make you think. I really really liked this movie.

1. American Beauty (Best Movie so Far)
2. Memento (Most Original Movie so Far)
