-Comment: Some boys at school in buckskin Lederhosen. Few and short scenes. Also Oliver Grimm (9 ys, pictured on all pics) in dark blue bib overalls (bottom right on left in red, without bibs).
At least 4 boys ~ 9-11 ys in buckskin Lederhosen and at least one or 2 in (partly black) long Tracht buckskin Lederhosen (pic bottom left), partly with H-style suspenders playing ball at the school's playground. In the classroom I think 2 boys in Lederhosen (at least with suspenders), not shown if really Lederhosen (maybe long Lederhosen). At a school trip (good landscape scene on a meadow) 2 boys with suspenders, 1 in short pants and one in long. Shortly after that scene is one boy shown sitting with suspenders and a short blue non-leather pants. All scenes are short. So can't rate higher than 4-5. More scenes of Grimm in bib overalls (partly farm content, partly in rubber boots and also lot of other clothing), but I don't like him either as he's very young. For more about that see my overalls blog (entry coming soon) but will also be rating ~4. Also starring Joachim Fuchsberger and Karin Dor. At the end of the film also Grimm in grey shorts (non-leather) and Tyrolean hat at a horse race. Not to be confused with the documentary "Kleiner Mann ganz groß" (1994) also starring Heinz Rühmann (and also scenes of young Oliver Grimm), or the 1938 film. According to Ofdb there had been 2 VHS releases, but couldn't find it anywhere and not sure if this isn't the 1994 version.
