The Freshman 1925 123movies

Watch: The Freshman 1925 123movies, Full Movie Online – 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 on emulating 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 all the more difficult when one of the upperclassmen, seeing how hard Speedy is trying to impress, does whatever he can to make Speedy look all the more ridiculous, all the while Speedy believing he is achieving his dream. The bully’s efforts are made all the more easy 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 becoming 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 who is in love with him, and he with her. The love of a good woman may be able to provide Speedy with a clearer understanding of who he truly should be to impress, and/or get his mind focused on other things other than being everyone’s best friend..
Plot: Harold Lamb is so excited about going to college that he has been working to earn spending money, practicing college yells, and learning a special way of introducing himself that he saw in a movie. When he arrives at Tate University, he soon becomes the target of practical jokes and ridicule. With the help of his one real friend Peggy, he resolves to make every possible effort to become popular.

A genuine classic… Rockne-esque comedy!
“The Freshman” is a truly funny sports movie… And those are HARD to find! Harold is a nerdy freshman college student, who thinks that college life is JUST like it is in “the movies”. He finds out differently once he arrives on campus and soon becomes the campus laughing-stock, so he tries to make the football team and prove everybody wrong.

His pathetic attempts to make the team, and the other goings-on make this fabulous “flicker” one that all film buffs should see!

If you’ve never seen a “silent”, this is a great place to start, because it is easier than most for the neophyte to follow the story because, like most of Lloyd’s films, the pacing and story-telling are more modern than most, and the humor seems easier to pick up than a lot of other silent movies.

If you ever get the chance to see this or any other silent movie shown PROPERLY (in an old-time movie palace with live musical accompaniment), DO IT! You will NOT regret the experience!

Sorry….but NOT his Best!
For years, it has been parroted that this is his Best Film. Allow me to disagree. What don’t i like about it? First, the student’s cruelty to Harold is, at first, annoying. As the story goes on, it becomes painful to watch; even HAROLD cries! Many of the gags just aren’t that funny; the “unravelling suit”, for example. Much too much time is spent on it, but it’s just not that good for the time allotted to it.

The most redeeming thing about the film is the romance that develops between them; it’s quite heart-warming & tender. (And, of course, i LOVE the jig he does when he introduces himself!).

Imho, “Safety Last” was his best film, followed closely by “Movie Crazy”, “Girl Shy”, “Dr.Jack” and others.
