1. Why do you think Chief spoke and continued to speak to Mcmurphy?
Chief first spoke to Mcmurphy unintentionally. Then I think Chief continued to speak to Mcmurphy because he was someone Chief respected and trusted. Then Mcmurphy and Chief went to Disturbed together and I think that formed a bond between them.
2. What does the Big Nurse symbolize?
I think that the Big Nurse symbolizes society. She wanted the patients to get better just like society did. All of her viewpoints and the things she did were based on the outside society.
3. Was Mcmurphy successful with his rebellion?
I think Mcmurphy was partially successful. He succeeded in having the other patients leave the ward and go out on their own. But Mcmurphy did not succeed in getting out of the ward himself. He died as a result of his rebellion which was definitely not part of his plan.
4. Was Chief a good narrator?
Yes he was. Chief saw everything that was going on in the ward. He never said anything so he got to go anywhere and give us the whole story. Also, if Chief wasn't the narrator we probably would not have liked Mcmurphy as much, if even at all.
