About The Freshman
After a film student gets his belongings stolen, he meets a mobster bearing a startling resemblance to a certain cinematic godfather. Soon, he finds himself caught up in a caper involving endangered species and fine dining.
Directed by Andrew Bergman, The Freshman leans on a strong ensemble — Marlon Brando, Matthew Broderick, Bruno Kirby — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
