-Comment: Scotty Beckett (~13 yo as 9 yo Henry Van Cleve, pictured) in short dark blue sailor suit (blue collar, 3 stripes), big blue hat and red scarf and dark stockings. I found this movie by coincidence but haven't seen it completely yet. Directed by Ernst Lubitsch and set between 1870 and 1930s, so scene shown bust be in 1870s. (and so I assume few sailor suit scenes, but don't know of other actors in sailor suits). Based on stage play by Samson Raphaelson. There is also an unrelated 1978 film with the same title. Scotty Beckett (1929-1968) was a very famous child star, see also "The Case Against Mrs. Ames" (no pic yet). I like this scene but unsure for whole movie, for sailor suit scenes rating 5-6 for now.
