12 Crazy Things to Know About ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest’

5. Forman and Nicholson Didn’t Speak During Filming

During pre-production, the director and the star had a falling out over McMurphy’s motivation. The argument caused a rift between Milos Forman and Jack Nicholson, and the two refused to speak to each other while filming the movie. Instead, the men used the film’s cinematographer as their messenger when they needed to communicate anything to one another. Later, Nicholson’s angst over the situation had not diminished, and he refused to participate in any of the DVD commentary.
