-Comment: Had just been aired. (I have checked it before, but not completely and so I missed these few scenes which are at the very end of the movie).

2 boys sitting, rear view one with a blue wide and short collar, the other, right next to him with a long collar flap and a cap. Pic 2 showing a boy with a very long light blue collar and white stripes. One scenes later his front is shown, not close up (first I thought that this is a different boy). The collar appears a bit darker and he doesn't wear a scarf. The collar appears to be attached to the jacket and the jacket has buttons. One girl in a dark blue sailor-like dress (pictured just behind the boy). But she has no collar or a very short one. Also of course lots of others (mainly grown-ups and mainly women) in historical clothes including flat straw hats and men in firefighter uniforms.

Quite funny movie but there are  much better ones. Robert Seidl as 15 yo Karl Valentin has a weird haircut and isn't handsome. There are some similar movies like the Ludwig Thoma /Hansi Kraus movies, but they are much better and more famous (also see my first entry, rating 8).

Some famous actors including Walter Sedlmayr, Gustl Bayrhammer, Beppo Brem and Hans Clarin. I wonder why that is not put on DVD.

Rating 5-6. Good sailor suits but very few good scenes. No close-ups.
