Vintery, mintery, cutery, corn,
Apple seed and apple thorn;
Wire, briar, limber lock,
Three geese in a flock.
One flew east,
And one flew west,
And one flew over the cuckoo's nest.
A/N: That's right, folks! Another film adaptation! The following story will be based off of the kick ass film "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest"
The film is about a very eccentric man who fakes being mentally ill in order to get out of jail (he is in jail for statutory rape). Once in the mental hospital, he befriends the other patients and eventually gets them to rebel against Nurse Ratched, whom he feels is tyrannical.
Here's a quick layout of the characters:
Roger: Aggressive, wise ass, eccentric, rebellious man who fakes being mentally insane (it's not that much of a stretch) in order to get out of jail.
Collins: Silent, dignified, and towering in height. Said to be deaf and dumb. (When I say 'dumb' I mean he can't talk.) He has a father who lost his mind after decades of alcohol abuse.
Mark: Immature, always smiling, can't seem to understand people or stay in the moment very well. Sees people that aren't there.
Maureen: Trouble making, argumentative and cynical.
Mimi: The pretty, airhead girlfriend of Roger. Not a mental patient…she does have some significance towards the later part of the story, however.
Joanne: Intelligent, rationalizing. Somewhat sane, actually. Is in the mental hospital because she can't cope with the fact that her girlfriend has cheated on her.
Benny: Insecure and neurotic. Far too emotional.
Angel: The youngest patient on the ward. Shy, timid and very fearful of his dominating mother (who also happenes to be friends with Nurse Ratched). Has suicidal tendencies. He speaks with a severe stutter.
Stay tuned for chapter one! It's coming soon:)
