Opening Night of the 11th Chicago International Film Festival features the World Premiere of Milos Forman’s One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, with star Jack Nicholson leading a delegation of cast. A tribute to Pier Paolo Pasolini is planned, but the celebration becomes a memorial when the director is murdered the night before his departure for Chicago. Stanley Donen is honored, with notable screenings including Polish filmmaker Andrzej Wajda’s Land of Promise, which takes home the Gold Hugo.
