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.

Der Wagner-Clan. Eine Familiengeschichte
History film starring Iris Berben
-Year: 2013
-Year in film: ~1930s
-Country: Germany, Austria
-Who in clothing: boy ~6 Lederhosen
-Who in clothing 2: boys knickers, costumes
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, party TV recording
-Clothing occurrence: very low ?
-Rating: 5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: At least a young boy in light grey buckskin Lederhosen without suspenders at the end of the movie. Not sure about his name, maybe Wieland Wagner (in real life, born 1917). His older brother in knickers. Also both in costumes a bit earlier. I think there must be other kids at the beginning like Noah Joel Kraus as 8-10 yo Siegfried (born 1869).
Had been aired yesterday (available online at the ZDF mediathek). Unfortunately I missed most of the movie and don't have the time to check it online.
Quite interesting but I assume very few Lederhosen scenes (maybe there are even sailor suits or dresses). Also at least 2 girls acting.
I read that there should be 2 parts of this movie.Or is the 2nd part the documentary? 108 minutes.
Typical history movie starring Iris Berben. Also starring Justus von Dohnányi. Probably few kids.
Rating 5 for now. I have to check it again and hope for a rebroadcasting.
Update: I have checked many parts of this movie and couldn't find any more scenes of interest.

The Little Red Schoolhouse
Drama starring Dickie Moore
-Year: 1936
-Year in film: 1930s
-Country: USA
-Who in clothing: Dickie 10 sailor suit
-Who in clothing 2: girls sailor dresses
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Clothing occurrence: medium
-Rating: 5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Dickie Moore (pic 1 and 3) as an orphan in a white and also a dark sailor suit (at school), dark collar, 2 stripes. Also I think 2 girls in sailor dresses at school. I'm not sure, but the kid on pic 2 is probably a girl with curly hair wearing a white short collar. There's also a rear view.
I found this by coincidence (completely on YouTube).
Rather few good scenes with him in sailor suits. I haven't found any good rear view of the collar flap. So rating 5 only.
Starring Frank Coughlan Jr., Lloyd Hughes and Ann Doran. Story by Paul Perez.
I have 2 more movies starring Dickie Moore here which are better.

-Country: USA
-Who in clothing: boy Billy 8, sailor dress
-Who in clothing 2:
-Available on DVD: yes ?
-I own: no
-Clothing occurence: low?
-Rating: 3/10 ?
-Rating: ***
-Comment: At least Jackson Nicoll in a sailor dress.
I have found this by coincidence (not searching for sailor suits nor Lederhosen).
I haven't seen this complete movie and I don't like boys in dresses, but maybe others do. So rating 2-3 for this sailor dress for now.
I can't say much more yet. Maybe a quite interesting movie and plot.
I recently also have found an interesting movie (CZ?) with a boy in light brown or beige shorts, but they are probably not of leather. Some interesting scenes in a tin bathtub but nothing for this blog.

Info 183: Update: Der Schandfleck (1956)
Had been aired today.
Unfortunately I have missed most of it. At the end only showing a girl and kids far in the background.
Previously even without a pic, I now found this on a short clip on YouTube.
However, probably rather few good scenes.
Still at least rating 5. I hope for a rebroadcasting but haven't found any in the near future.
