# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Silent Film Series: The Freshman (1925)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 29 Nov, 2025 at 03:00 pm
- **Event Description**: A nerdy college student will do anything to become popular on campus.

A landmark in silent film comedy, The Freshman showcases Harold Lloyd at the peak of his popularity. This endearing underdog tale blends slapstick humor with heartfelt charm, capturing the spirit of 1920s college life. Beloved for its iconic football scenes and Lloyd’s trademark optimism, the film remains a classic of early American cinema.

Harold Lamb’s dream is to go to college and become the most popular student on campus, much like the character Speedy played by actor Lester Laurel in the movie “The College Hero.” Accepted into Tate College, Harold plans to emulate Speedy, including giving himself the nickname Speedy, to gain that popularity, not realizing that if he does so, he will be more the buffoon than the hero. To be the most popular student, he will have to outdo the current most popular student, football captain Chet Trask.

Unaware Speedy’s task is made even more difficult when one of the upperclassmen, seeing how hard Speedy is trying to impress, does whatever he can to make Speedy look more ridiculous, all the while Speedy believing he is achieving his dream. The bully’s efforts are made all the easier as Speedy is able to buy his way to seeming popularity with the small nest egg he was able to accumulate from work. The one thing that Speedy may not be able to buy is his way onto the football team, which he is convinced is the only surefire way to become the campus hero, despite not realizing that he truly is not the football type.

While Speedy remains unaware how he truly looks to his classmates, Peggy—the daughter of the owner of the rooming house where he is staying—is aware; she and Speedy are in love with each other. The love of a good woman might be able to provide Speedy with a clearer understanding of who he truly should be trying to impress, and get his mind focused on things other than being everyone’s best friend.
