-Comment: Gary Warren in white sailor suit (blue collar, 3 stripes, pictured top left and with flat hat, pic below) and I think Jenny Agutter in white sailor dress (top right). Boy also in breeches. Also starring Sally Thomsett as Phyllis, the oldest girl ~19 ys (but I don't think in sailor dress), but not sure. Sorry, I don't know this complete film yet, but looks very good. Famous novel by E. Nesbit, published in 1905 and there is also a 2000 TV film and 3 TV series (which I also have to check), but this film is supposed to be the best version. However I assume rather few or medium scenes of the boy in sailor suits and more of the girl. Film won 2 BAFTA Awards and Thomsett got another nomination for it. Very good setting, for sailor suit scenes only rating 5-6 for now. Boy also has too long hair (like the 1970s and not the 1900s). I also don't like Agutter (and her hair).
