Harold Lamb, a naïve, wide-eyed freshman, heads off to Tate University hoping to emulate his movie idol, The College Hero, and springboard himself to popularity. He even makes the football team — as a combination water boy/tackling dummy. But he gets his chance to make a name for himself in the big game, when his football coach, with injured starters and a badly depleted bench, has no choice but to put Harold on the field. Will the spindly and bespectacled frosh make good or be trampled underfoot by the rival team’s rugged leatherheads? THE FRESHMAN was Harold Lloyd’s most successful film of the ‘20s and is widely considered one of his best.
