One Flew Over the Transformer’s Nest: or, What Michael Bay could learn from Randle P. McMurphy
By Steven BoonePressPlay contributor
Have you ever been subject to someone in a position of authority who denied you a basic adult right, as if you were a child?
Of course you have. It’s a universal frustration we’ve all experienced at one point or another. in One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, a guy named Charlie Cheswick wants his cigarettes. He’s a voluntary patient at a mental institution in 1963, and the ward supervisor, Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher), serenely refuses to let him have his smokes. She’s been punishing him in this manner for a while now, and he’s nearly fed up. Adding fuel to the fire, fellow patient McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) asks other ward mates to let Cheswick bum a smoke.
Cheswick loses it. “I don’t want his cigarettes, or his, or his, or his….” he turns his fury back to the nurse. “I want my cigarettes, Nurse Ratched! What gives you the damn right to keep our cigarettes piled up on your desk and to squeeze out a pack only when you feel like it, huh?” He’s in a rage of understandable frustration (and nicotine withdrawal), but Nurse Ratched exploits the situation by remaining inhumanly calm, making him look like the unreasonable crazy man that violence-prone attendants standing nearby are all too happy to believe he is.
“That’s just wrong,” said a young man standing next to me, staring up at the movie and shaking his head. “Give that dude his cigarettes.” We were gathered at an outdoor screening in midtown Manhattan, part of Bryant Park’s summer movie series. on the giant screen, Charley Cheswick, played by the great character actor Sydney Lassick, continued to throw a tantrum (“I ain’t no little kid! I want something done! I want something doooonne!”) until McMurphy rushed over to the nurses’ station, put his fist through its thin plate glass window, and grabbed a carton of Lucky Strikes. the crowd, at least a thousand strong, erupted in applause. McMurphy shoved the carton into Cheswick‘s arms, but it was too late. Attendants dragged him away. Nurse Ratched won this round. Boooo.
There would be a lot more applause, catcalls and dismayed head-shaking from this Bryant Park movie crowd, which was Standing Room only that night. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, an allegorical drama adapted from Ken Kesey’s novel, played like a non-stop thrill ride. Originally released in 1975, it’s the most thrilling summer movie of 2011.
The park was packed, in part, because the movie was free. HBO, apparently out of the kindness of its corporate heart, shows free classic films in Bryant Park every summer since the early 90s. but what struck me was how the place stayed packed, standing room only, for the film’s duration. I was standing alongside the great lawn in the middle of the park, where I could see the multitude staring up, barely blinking—and, at times, crying, grinning madly in unconscious pantomime of Jack’s ridiculously charismatic smile; or resting a head on the shoulder of a loved one. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s nest doesn’t let you look away. how does it do this?
Surely, Michael Bay knows. he didn’t direct Cuckoo’s Nest. Milos Forman did that when Bay was 10 years old, playing with toy cars and army men. Bay’s new film Transformers: dark of the Moon apes a basic understanding of why people flock to the big commercial movies. We don’t seek escape so much as communion. in theaters, strangers come together as at church, to experience something that spells out what fears, strengths, joys and frustrations we have in common. You can’t get an “amen” in your living room. the Transformers movies genuflect toward this phenomenon by building their tale around an Everyman hero who overcomes everyday humiliation and adversity in the manner of Buster Keaton or Peter Parker. the plots may be about an endless battle on earth between good shape-shifting robots (The Autobots) and evil ones (The Decepticons), but the heart of the franchise is likable Sam (Shia Leboeuf). Previously, Sam struggled to get out from under his loving but suffocating parents and maintain a relationship with an affectionate love doll (Megan Fox). this time he faces the same struggles while going through a mortifying recession-era job search and tending an even more affectionate love doll (Rosie Alice Huntington-Whiteley). What young soul, in Cairo or Austin, can’t relate?
Or so Bay seems to think. It’s clear that the director assumes we’ve developed some kind of relationship with Sam over the years. all Bay heroes are the kind of simple, red-blooded American boys that McMurphy encouraged virginal Billy Bibbit (Brad Dourif) to be in Cuckoo’s Nest, the kind who “oughta be out in a convertible bird-dogging chicks and banging beaver.” Except that Sam’s coming of age across three deafening Transformers movies has been like watching American Graffiti staged during the Battle of Fallujah. Despite Bay’s clear intention to bring us all together, there is no communion to be found here. all of the Transformers films are oppressive wonders, but I was impressed by how Bay left me so little with which to dull my pain this time around.
Granted, the entire series is nonsensically plotted and crammed with the kind of humor shared between Marines sitting in adjoining latrine stalls, so what was I expecting? Bay has, from the start of his career, demonstrated that his attention span lasts about .000005 seconds. the man has no concept of suspense or accumulation of detail. but the previous entries at least had a few majestic one-off images and fragments of montage that suggested that Bay’s connection to Steven Spielberg transcended the simple executive producer/director relationship. the shots of rollerblading Decepticons or somersaulting tanks in Bay’s work grooved like Spielberg in pure showman mode. but Dark of the Moon says: Enough of that shit. it is one clanking, crowded, homely image after another, in what is supposed to be a simulation of three dimensions but looks more like one of those faux-holographic Jesus cards you find in religious bookstores. Vehicles perform a lot of gymnastics that defy physics here, but this Real-D thingamajig makes them seem more toy-like than even CGI can guarantee. one potentially astonishing shot of soldiers free-falling in winged flying suits looks like a bunch of dolls dangling on fishing wire. Transformers: dark of the Moon cost $150,000,000.
But the real horror in Dark of the Moon is the way it expresses a newfound ambition in Bay, one that surpasses even Armageddon and Pearl Harbor in devouring history, space and time. here Bay recruits for his purposes CGI effigies of John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Obama; flesh-and-blood master thespians Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and John Turturro; the real Apollo astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Fox News crusader bill O’Reilly, NASA and, as usual, a large swath of the military industrial complex. Megan Fox, the franchise’s signature eye candy, is not in this one because, according to gossip, Spielberg fired her for comparing Bay to Hitler in a press interview. Dark of the Moon tells me the comparison is apt, but only in the sense that Bay has a truly amazing ability to bend armies to his infantile will. Sitting in the dark, staring up at Dark of the Moon through flimsy Real-D glasses, I felt as if we were all being jumped by a vicious street gang or recruited for terrorism. the theater became a cattle car to certain doom. Michael Bay will be President of the United States one day, you mark my words. or at least governor of California.
If we last that long, that is. Dark of the Moon seems to herald a definite end of the American empire, delivering, amidst a third-act frenzy of rockets and robot breakdance-fighting, one-liners that cut deep. “We are all working for the Decepticons now,” says Patrick Dempsey, as a slimy tycoon who sells us all out to the rogue Transformers, Lex Luthor-style. like Avatar and the Star Wars prequels, this flick somehow critiques megalomania and totalitarianism while making vigorous, sweaty love to them. We are all working for the Decepticons now, and with Nurse Ratcheds like Bay denying us our cigarette while pretending to want only what’s best for us, 1975 seems like a lost planet.

I’m not sure what came first: my nostalgia or horrible mainstream film. It’s a chicken/egg situation.
Brooke, sorry my message below got garbled. Thank you for your comments. I’m with you on the feeling that the 1970’s were a height of American mainstream commercial cinema, and this is not just nostalgia talking.
Ron, Transformers and Cuckoo’s Nest are not disparate at all. They’re both movies. And each is essentially a thrill ride. Cuckoo’s Nest comes with a more respectable pedigree—Ken Kesey novel as opposed to a line of Hasbro action figures—but its function as crowd-pleasing entertainment is undeniable. a downbeat ending does not an art film make.
My argument is that Cuckoo’s Nest is more thrilling and enthralling than Transformers: DOtM, at a fraction of the cost (even accounting for inflation). Cuckoo’s Nest grossed nearly as much as DOtM’s production budget. how? it has no CGI or 3-D. because, then as now, a good story and great storytelling are what draw audiences. the 1975 film is propulsively told; the 2011 flick is barely told at all but fired at us like a mortar round. though not a summer movie itself, Cuckoos Nest has in common with all the great summer movies since Jaws a solid investment in character. Human capital drives Star Wars, Rocky (speaking of mr. Winkler!), Titanic, Harry Potter… your comment represents the kind of cinematic segregation and shallow imagination that is killing the movies. Anything that goes up on the screen before a crowd of strangers is fit for comparison to anything else put before them.
See, you’ve even got me doing it. sorry, I meant Irwin Allen (TOWERING INFERNO, etc.), not Winkler.
Your association of these two very disparate films reads as a very random, nonsensical stretch. a better 70s comparison would have been to something by Irwin Winkler.
Thanks,Brooke, gla a y
What an excellent article. I am a huge fan of one Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, and what an excellent film to suggest for contemporary director’s to look at. I haven’t even seen past the first Transformers because I’m tired of big Blockbusters with no heart. I think too many people these days think that because something is just so silly – those silly robots – that you can’t make something wonderful and thoughtful out of it. Television shows like Doctor Who and anything by Joss Whedon proves that no matter how potentially ridiculous or cheesy something is, it can also transcend it’s genre to become poignant and relevant.my husband and I are always saying the movies have never been braver than they were in the 1970s, and I find myself watching more and more older films or even more television than current films due to that little thing they seem to be lacking. Here’s to hoping that more film director’s will start to take chances again.

Article by Carolina Drennan
Breakdance battles are very frequent nowadays. Breakers, b-boys and b-girls commonly join together to form a crew and several crews compete with each other in battle, it can likewise be two people who merely desire to battle it out. Battles basically indicate performing a dance off between the two crews or two people. a battle is merely just a showdown between crews to be able to show off their talent and capabilities. Battles have existed since the 1970s. Breakdance battles started in South Bronx of New York where Latino Americans used to battle it out against African-Americans.

@TakeThat @ Wembley Stadium, London – 30/06/2011
If you’re a Londoner and a take That fan I urge you to beg, steal or borrow to get to this show. I was one of the privileged ones who bagged a ticket to the opening night of the manband’s mammoth, record-breaking, eight-date run at Wembley Stadium in North West London, and what an epic night it was.
For those going to see the show, I’m issuing an obligatory *Spoiler Alert*
The sun shone over the iconic Wembley arch as the 90,000 capacity crowd packed in, some enjoying and some missing (sorry guys) the Pet Shop Boys’ support slot. at 8.15pm a countdown was heard and punters scrabbled for their seats to get in place for the main act. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1… *ear-shattering screams*
Fantastic four-piece
Gary’s ever-flawless vocal kicked in to open the set with Rule the World sparking the loud and enthusiastic audience singalong that didn’t let up until the end of the night (even though we were a bit put off by the delayed output speaker at the rear of the venue). Arms waved, hands clapped and spirits were high as the four gents (minus Robbie), dressed in smart shirt and waistcoat combo’s, sang the equally anthemic Greatest Day, Hold Up a Light and Patience beneath the huge arms of the half man structure ‘holding’ the top of the stage, and in front of the ‘Progress robot’.
A few raised platforms, some confetti and a hoard of masked dancers and flares later, Gary greeted the adoring crowd “oh my god, we’ve been dying to say this. good evening Wembley!” Mark urged a rendition of the national anthem, disappeared, and then returned into a kooky fairytale setting for Shine which saw him riding on a giant caterpillar in a feather headdress!
Solo Robbie
Everyone stood up as the first few notes of Let me Entertain You were played and Robbie, in a long black tailcoat, took to the stage “Hello London, remember me?! allow me to re-introduce myself, I’m Robbie f*cking Williams!” the atmosphere was massively buzzing at this point as was mr Williams, mouthing profanities in awe. Skating girls with RW flags brought us into fist-pumping Rock DJ and it got very, very loud.
What started as a sort of ode to Wembley, delved into a poem about super injunctions, taking drugs and other such shenanigans which suitably led into Come Undone, customised with the lyrics “England, I’m still your son”. ever the showman, a funny go at Bootylicious involved some dodgy Beyoncé dance imitation. Robbie then soared above the crowds on a platform singing Feel, which sounded gorgeous, but not as much so as the built-for-stadium-singing anthem that is Angels, made even more dramatic by the setting sun. Fireworks crashed and Robbie disappeared, leaving the audience hyped up and ready for more…
All together again
The Flood began this section of the night as the original five-piece appeared in full and more spectacles of the high production show ensued including: abseiling dancers, a waterfall wall, and the gradual movements of the Progress robot. SOS (which has got to be a contender for a single release) preceded Underground Machine (not really a great one for me) and the stomping track Kidz. Moving like they were still kids themselves, a breakdance battle commenced between Jason and Howard – they’ve still got it! Pretty Things took the pace down and lost the crowd’s attention slightly but it was soon reeled back in by an on-stage spat between Jason and Robbie about his ‘sacking’ in ’96!
One of my favourite parts of the night was the old school segment. a quick burst of Take That and Party and Do what U Like came with some running man dancing, then Gary took to the piano for a spine-tingling medley (I didn’t get to go to their concerts the first time around as an under 10 fan) A Million love Songs, Babe, Everything Changes and Back for Good which, I think, had the best singalong of the night under the then-illuminated Wembley arch. Pray was performed in full with the original synchronised head-swaying dance routine and I was transported back to the 90s again.
Moving into the final part of the night, current single Love love provided another stomping track as the band strutted around in flashing led-light jackets. “Summing up the last twenty years” was Never Forget with its Queen-like arms-in-the-air clapping and the amply-titled No Regrets. Relight my Fire brought energy levels back up with dancing and fire aplenty, and Lulu’s verse was taken on by Robbie! As the gloriously reunited manband took leave from the stadium floor they sang the final track of the show, Eight Letters.
I had an unforgettable night: my first in Wembley Stadium and my first take That gig in eighteen years of being a fan. in attempting to put my bias aside though, the guys put on a stunning show (taking advantage of their big budget), they looked and sounded great together, made sure there was a healthy dose of chat and humour in between songs, and delighted the audience with a wide spread of tracks from their twenty-year history. Robbie’s still my favourite…
I need to go again, anyone want to give me their ticket?
My highlights:
- Patience
- Angels
- back for good
- Pray
- never Forget

Tanzperformance in der Von der Heydt-Kunsthalle
moved by art – streetdance meets streetart
Streetdance und Streetart sind Geschwister, nicht nur dem Namen nach. Beide sind Teil der Hip-Hop-Kultur, die in den 1970er Jahren in den Straßen von New York ihren Ursprung hat. Mittlerweile gehen beide auch unterschiedliche Wege, sind gewachsen und haben sich weiterentwickelt. Streetart ist längst nicht mehr „nur“ Graffiti, also das (meist heimliche) Sprühen an Häuserwände und U-Bahn-Züge. Und auch in der Kultur des Straßentanzes gab es Weiterentwicklungen und neue Ausformungen.Gemeinsam haben die beiden, dass sie zwischenzeitlich auch außerhalb ihrer eigentlichen Szene Aufmerksamkeit gefunden haben. Während die Streetart nunmehr zum wiederholten Male ihren Platz in der Von der Heydt-Kunsthalle in Wuppertal-Barmen gefunden hat, bringen Theater und Opernhäuser zunehmend auch Straßentanz auf die Bühne.
Bei „moved by art“ treffen sich die Geschwister wieder. Die drei Tänzer interpretieren nicht die Werke, sondern lassen sich von der Kunst um sie herum bewegen. Sie werden so für kurze Zeit ein lebender Teil dieser Ausstellung.
Die Tänzer:Farid M. Baroug (alias „Joker“)Joker stammt aus dem Iran und startete bereits 1982 auf den Straßen von Teheran mit dem Streetdance. Das war nicht nur verpönt, sondern auch offiziell nicht geduldet. Joker ging daher einige Jahre darauf zusammen mit seinem Freund Majid (alias Magic) in den Westen, um seine Kunst frei ausüben zu können. Er arbeitete seitdem als Solist und gründete seine erste Hip Hop-Crew Oldstreet. Später gründete Joker die Baroug Company, mit der er Choreografien (Dance to Freedom, Salam, Interpretationzz, Peter und der Wolf) u.a. für das tanzhaus nrw und die Deutsche Oper am Rhein erstellte und tanzte. Seit 20 Jahren lebt und arbeitet Joker als freier Choreograf, Tänzer und Tanzdozent in Düsseldorf.
Maren MeiringMaren Meiring begann ihre Tanzausbildung 1984 mit Klassischen Tanz. Später studierte sie Modernen Tanz und Klassischen Tanz an der Ballettakademie Leipzig unter der Leitung von Uwe Scholz. Sie ist als freie Tänzerin sowie als Dozentin u.a. an der Tanzakademie der Rheinischen Musikschule Köln tätig.
Albi GjikajDer 1987 in Albanien geborene Albi Gjikaj begann als 13-jähriger mit dem Breakdance. Mit 16 Jahren gewann er zum ersten Mal einen internationalen Preis beim Powermove in Holland. In der Folgezeit errang Albi zahlreiche Preise (Ruhrpottbattle; Mixery ko Battle; Ready to Rumble; National Battle of the Year). Er war Nord- und Westdeutscher Meister. Albi ist als Tänzer im Theater Oberhausen, dem Theater Wuppertal und in der Düsseldorfer Oper aufgetreten und tourt mit verschiedenen Stücken durch Deutschland.
Choreografie (zusammen mit den Tänzern):Tanja NierlingTanja Nierling studierte vier Jahre lang an der Tanzakademie der Hochschule der Künste Arnheim (Artez). Danach tanzte und unterrichtete sie mehrere Jahre in Madrid und New York. Vor rund 10 Jahren gründete sie in Düsseldorf eine Schule für Bühnentanz. Neben ihrer Arbeit als Tanzdozentin gehört ihre Leidenschaft der Choreografie von Tanztheaterstücken.
