"Harvard Man" follows a Harvard basketball student indulging in life's vices -- illicit sex, drugs and high-stakes gambling. Tempted by a cheerleader who's also a mobster's daughter, the student finds himself in danger of losing a lot more than his scholarship.
Toback ("Black & White") was nominated for a screenwriting Academy Award for "Bugsy."
