-Comment: Some supporting actors in sailor suits (few short scenes of boys and men). Sailor hats and flat straw hats. Boys at (elementary) school, some with completely white collars some with blue collars with stripes. Most scenes at school (6th grade) with black or dark blue capes. Except for a short flashback from part 1, no girls in sailor dresses. Marcel wore pants till over the knees.

I am very disappointed of this 2nd part. The 1st part is called "Le temps des secrets" (rating 8/10, see that entry)

First, 11yo Marcel Pagnol (played by Richard Oiry, pictured top left on left and big pic on right) is only shown in the first half of this 2nd film. At 0:50:00 there is a 16 yo Marcel (Robin Causse, looks like 20). And even the 11yo didn't wear sailor suits here (maybe to show the end of his childhood after entering the 6th grade). His friend wore a sailor's hat (which Marcel often carried). At least some other boys with sailor suits (pic bottom right is set when Marcel is 16) and some good historical other clothings and hats. Some women with collars, but also short scenes in the background.

Of course it's interesting what Marcel became later, but I had expected more (with that title). No real love scenes, 1 kissing scene, however it's rather a family movie (rated G in France). Both films are available separately and I wouldn't buy this 2nd part, though good historical setting. For more infos see the entry of the 1st part. 
No men and women in sailor suits in the first part.
For film and sailor suits scenes I can only rate 3.
