One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Part IV

In part four I wanted to discuss the effects Kesey has achieved through his use of consciousness and sanity as opposed to insanity. Kessey show’s how Bromden think’s that the modern society is oppressive, and and that the the hospital’s are like repair shop’s for the people who do not fit into the world. His way of interpreting/describing the world emphasizes the social pressure to conform to what other’s think. Those who do not conform or agree to the rules and feelings of the society are looked upon as defective products or sick people of the “schools, churches and the society.” Then later they are labeled mental or ill. The hospital is normally defined as the place where the ill go to be cured. However, in the cases of these people he thinks that they are programmed then put back into the society of so called robs. I think that Kessey has difined his feelings toward society in this book One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. And I’ve enjoyed it.

In part three of One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest I thought that I’d discuss how Kesey has developed our understanding of Broomden over the first half of the novel. I think that Kessy has portrayed him to be an character of intelligence but at the same time to be a little weird, or crazy. For example when McMurphy breaks the glass it tell us in a sense nthat he could tell that the nurse was becoming provoked because she started to loose her patients. This show’s that broomden is not as insane in crazy as they think he is being as though he’s aware of what’s going. He is still discerning and understanding of the additudes of the nurse. Kessey also in a sense make you think that Broomden is crazy by him being inducted into some sort of cyke hospital.

In part 2 of this book for my blogg I wanted to talk and disscuss how the nurse Ratched reacted in the glassed in Nurses' Station after her outburst and she’s being watched. The patients all are looking at her they think something’s up with her now and and she can’t escape it. Ratched trys to keep her composure by trying not to be nervous . Ratched appears to me to be very vindicative and sneaky ecspeally knowing that she has the power to rule over things or people such as Bromden. She knows she has the power to keep him there as long as she wants and sheuses it to her advantage. Ratched knows she can send anyone she wants for electroshock therapy. Ratched thinks that she has regained control but she really hasn’t .The staff meeting illustrates Nurse Ratched's power in the hospital. And the glass, which is kept so spotless and that’s always being clean represents the control Nurse Ratched has over the patients. But by McMurphy breaking the glass, he reminds the other patients that her power over them is breakable. This shows that the nurse is very dishonest i think.

The character I wanted to speak about was Bromden which is a very interesting character. Bromdem seems to be drugged throught the whole play. He thinks that the Nurse can set the clock to any speed. So he feels that by not having time that will help him with his provoked state that he’s in. I really like Bomden as a character I think he really does and excellent job acting. For instance they nicknamed “Chief Broom” because the aides make him sweep the hallways and clean. Bromden is very paranoid, bullied, and he hallucinates a lot. He talks a lot about fog which is really an exspression of how he feels when he takes his medicine. He thinks that he is really weak, even though he used to be strong. But really it’s the medicine that makes him feel that way. Then in part1 on pg. 9 he say’s “ when the fog clears to where I can see, I’m sitting in the day room. “ So this show’s that they have him so drugged up he that he can’t even understand what’s going on until reality hit’s.

In my blog I wanted to discuss the play and some of the things I found entertaining and interesting about it. The play Hamlet was very interactive with the audience it made you think as if you were feeling what the actresses were feeling. The guy who played Hamlet did an excellent job. Hamlet made the play funny yet he made the points in the play that were to stand out, stand out, the points that were of importance in the play he showed them to be just so at the proper time. The characters dress was something I felt was something that the director wanted us as an audience to look at. The reason I state this is because he put much effort in the clothing or costumes that the characters wore he made them very interesting were as though the dress was not all from the same time period but of different errors Hamlets outfit and Ophillia's outfits were totally different from that of the other characters in the play. The reason I think the director did this was to be 1. creative and 2. to send a message as to the big age difference between them from the other more mature and sophisticated characters. The characters here in this play all made themselves known to the audience they all were interactive which made the play very enjoyable to us as an audience.
