The Freshman
1925 · TMDB 7.0
Directed by Fred C. Newmeyer, Sam Taylor
An unathletic college freshman ridiculed by his peers for his mannerisms strives to become popular by making the football team.
Why it matters
Harold Lloyd's iconic comedy about a college student desperate to be popular. His bespectacled everyman persona and thrill-seeking gags made him a rival to Chaplin and Keaton.
