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: At least 2 very young boys in blue sailor suits and hats playing outside (pictured) and also older boys in quite good historical clothing and non-sailor collars. All pics from ep. 3. Last episode will be aired next Friday.
I didn't expect sailor suits in this series because of it's very early setting of about 1830s. I even didn't expect boy actors at all here. Though I assume also very few scenes of supporting actors. Costumes and series looks very good. English title "The Count of Monte Christo". Also starring Ornella Muti and Jean Rochefort. Famous novel by Alexandre Dumas and I think I don't have to tell more about it.
I will check the last episode and update this later. I don't expect more sailor suit scenes in the first episodes (because of the plot). I also have to check other Monte Christo versions. I only remember watching the 1975 version starring Richard Chamberlain, but haven't seen it recently.
Rating 3 for now due to the young age and few scenes.

I also found two movies which have few scenes of boys in sailor suit.

Thanks very much! I think this are the first sailor suit suggestions. I will check them and add them soon.
