The DVD for this classic film is strictly bare bones. The story of a con man who serves out his sentence in a mental institution was novelist Ken Kesey's wake up call to the world of psychiatric medicine, and the film delivered its message with wit, drama, and complex human emotion. The DVD, however, merely offers language options in English or French, and subtitle options in English, French or Spanish. At least the two-sided DVD gives the viewer the choice of letterbox or widescreen. The package includes a smattering of production note cards, but they relay no more information than the back of a video tape box. The transfer is poorly done, clearly from a used film print, and while the English audio is Dolby (not 5:1), the French track is mono only.
