Spit
in the Ocean: All About Kesey
by Ed
McClanahan, Gus
Van Sant
Book Description: Between 1974 and 1981 Ken Kesey self-published six
issues of a literary magazine called Spit in the Ocean. After the revolutionary
novelist's death in the fall of 2001, one of his closest friends, acclaimed
writer Ed McClanahan, decided to carry out Kesey's vision and put together
a final issue of Spit as a tribute to Kesey's genius and imperturbable
spirit. Featuring contributions from cultural luminaries-including Robert
Stone, Paul Krassner, Wendell Berry, Bill Walton, and Grateful Dead lyricists
Robert Hunter and John Perry Barlow-as well as "regular folk," and several
pieces by Kesey himself, Spit in the Ocean #7 is a loving and fitting homage
to the gigantic and unique spirit of the merriest of the Merry Pranksters.

Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) VHS
Starring: Jack Nicholson, Louise Fletcher, et al.
Director: Milos Forman
• NTSC format (US and Canada only)
• Color, Closed-captioned, Dolby, NTSC
One of the key movies of the 1970s, when exciting, groundbreaking,
personal films were still being made in Hollywood, Milos Forman's One
Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest emphasized the humanistic story at the
heart of Ken Kesey's more hallucinogenic novel. Jack Nicholson was born
to play the part of Randle Patrick McMurphy, the rebellious inmate of a
psychiatric hospital who fights back against the authorities' cold attitudes
of institutional superiority, as personified by Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher).
It's the classic antiestablishment tale of one man asserting his individuality
in the face of a repressive, conformist system--and it works on every level.
Forman populates his film with memorably eccentric faces, and gets such
freshly detailed and spontaneous work from his ensemble that the picture
sometimes feels like a documentary. Unlike a lot of films pitched at the
"youth culture" of the 1970s, One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest really
hasn't dated a bit, because the qualities of human nature that Forman captures--playfulness,
courage, inspiration, pride, stubbornness--are universal and timeless.
The film swept the Academy Awards for 1976, winning in all the major categories
(picture, director, actor, actress, screenplay) for the first time since
Frank Capra's It Happened One Night in 1931. --Jim Emerson, Amazon.com
