The Freshie

1922 · 50 min

A breezy, good-natured fish-out-of-water romp where a cowboy bumbles through campus life and hazing with cheerful slapstick energy.

Overview: Convinced by a vacationing professor that he should get an education, Charles Taylor abandons his cowboy life for college. He finds that higher education involves more than books, however, when the sophomores select him as an ideal subject for hazing.
How it feels: Light, whimsical, warm and absurd. Brisk and easy to follow.
Content: Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
