The Freshman

The Freshman is primarily a comedic film that parodies classic gangster tropes, leading to high levels of humor, joy, and happiness for the audience. While the 'crime' genre introduces elements of anxiety and anticipation as the protagonist navigates a bizarre caper involving endangered species, these are largely played for laughs, resulting in feelings of surprise, relief, and satisfaction rather than genuine fear or anger. The overall tone is lighthearted and amusing.
