ReviewsRolling Stone - ...Fitfully amusing....THE FRESHMAN has a snappy madness that's hard to resist..., Los Angeles Times - ... What THE FRESHMAN demonstrates is that Brando can parody himself better than any of his imitators -- and still appear as regal as ever..., New York Times - ...A witty and enchanted comedy....Propelled by the actors' straight-faced delivery to an ever more lunatic pitch...
Additional InformationTHE FRESHMAN is a wry and winsome film about Clark, a freshman film student (Matthew Broderick) in New York City, who is made an offer he can't refuse by a Mafia don (Marlon Brando) who is the spitting image of Don Corleone. As Clark weighs the romance against the danger of his association, he finds himself rapidly more involved. Brando, the Godfather himself, brilliantly (almost) reprises his famous role in this oddly affecting comedy.
