He is a hero to the other crazy patients, because he teaches them how to act sane. He has lived a normal life being loud and obnoxious, and not taking take crap from anybody. When he comes to the mental hospital, he shakes things up. Randall Patrick McMurphy: He is the main character. Jack Nicholson starred in the film version of this novel. The title comes from a children’s rhyme: "One flew East, One flew West, One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest." Also, cuckoo means crazy, like the mental patients in this book. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest takes place in Oregon. Like a bunch of people back then, he consumed a bunch of drugs and traveled all over, exploring and doing naughty things.
