‘The Freshman’

51598-ontmovie2.jpg

Thursday night’s movie in my “College Daze” series at the Ontario library is Harold Lloyd’s 1925 gem, “The Freshman.” Lloyd plays a naive freshman, Harold Lamb, who is pranked by his entire college into thinking he’s popular. The part where he does a little dance when greeting people is a gas.

Join us for the 6:30 p.m. screening at the library, 215 E. C St. And yes, it’s free.

Here’s the Wikipedia page. Be careful not to read much of the plot description! Most of the YouTube clips are 10 minutes, but here’s a short, charming scene.
