Harold Lloyd’s The Freshman (near LA)

Celebrate Silent Film Day with our friends at Flickrhappy as they present a 100th anniversary screening of The Freshman! And as an added bonus, Suzanne Lloyd, granddaughter of silent comedy legend Harold Lloyd, will be joining us in-person to introduce the film and share rare insights into her grandfather’s life and legacy! Adding even more to the magic, renowned silent film composer and pianist Cliff Retallick will provide live musical accompaniment.

Harold Lloyd’s biggest box office hit and still one of the most beloved comedies of the silent era, The Freshman follows Harold Lloyd as an eager college freshman who dreams of being a big man on campus, though his careful plans inevitably go hilariously awry. But he gets a climactic chance to prove his mettle and impress the sweet girl he loves in one of the most famous sports sequences ever filmed.
