Janus Films has released a new trailer for Harold Lloyd's timeless masterpiece of campus comedy The Freshman (1925). Newly restored in 2K, the film will be screened in a number of cinemas across the United States.
Harold heads off to college and quickly discovers that making friends involves more than aping the antics he's seen in the movies. To further his search for popularity, he manages to join the football team, but only as a combination water boy/tackling dummy. Finally, Harold gets his chance when the coach runs out of substitutes during the big game and reluctantly puts him on the field. Will our bespectacled hero reach the goal line, or will he be fodder for the leatherheads on the opposing team? What follows is more of the action/comedy that only Lloyd could devise.
