This is my 2nd blog about feature films, TV series and documentaries with boys, girls, men and women in sailor suits, Lederhosen and other historical clothing of the 19th century and beyond. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was introduced in 2011. 2012-2020 on Wordpress. Now I'm back. Update will take a while.

-Comment: I think at least 2 boys in sailor suit looking jackets. I don't know their names. Boy on top is the same as on bottom left. Directed by Günther Meyer, novel by Wolf Durian. I don't like most East German films, but this is one of my favorites. I haven't seen it for years and I even had recorded the documentary "Kai für Kiste gesucht" about the casting. Main character is the 13 yo Christoph Zeller as Kai (I think the red page boy). I have to check this again. Very good film, but for "sailor suits" only rating 5 for now. I didn't knew that there is also a 1960 film, but haven't find any pics or clips of that. Good plot about advertising bubblegum and this Berlin kids' gang.
Update: After checking some more parts of it, I will upgrade from 5-7. Very interesting historic clothes (also grown ups, incl women). And also a boy in breeches and boots (pic bottom left).
I still have to check it completely especially for the collar of the 2nd boy (pic bottom right) but I assume rather few (good) sailor suit (and very few breeches) scenes.
