Ein Interview mit dem grandiosen Nilos Forman über seinen Film "Einer flog über das Kuckucksnest". Forman verließ 1968 die damalige CSSR, seiner Eltern wurden in KZs umgebracht, seine Mutter in Auschwitz 1943, sein Vater in Buchenwald 1944, was den Interviewer Milos Einstellung zum OSt-West Konflikt hinterfragen lies.

DM sez:
"Miloš Forman discusses One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest with Denis Tuohy in 1976, where the multi-award winning director explains his views on Politics, Art and Film-making.
Tuohy appears not to be aware that One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest was based on the novel by Ken Kesey, instead, he digs for some personal East-West political subtext that relates to Forman’s past life in Czechoslovakia. (Though it’s not mentioned here, Forman’s parents died in Nazi concentration camps during the Second World War—his mother in Auschwitz in 1943, his father in Buchenwald, 1944; while after the war, Forman lived under the country’s brutal Communist rule.)"
