Comment: One handsome boy in a short blue sailor suit, white-blue striped blouse, long grey stockings. Very brief scene at 5 minutes. No full rear view.

Happy Easter!

This is a very good scene. Based on the operetta by Johann Strauss, English title The Bat. Directed by Géza von Bolváry and partly a DEFA production. Filmed in 1944 (where sailor suits were still quite common and so not a costume) but obviously set in the 1870s like the operetta. Luckily already in color.

I like this sailor suit but for the brief scene rating 5-6 only.

There are also other movies based on the operatta and some are more famous like the 1962 version but probably no boys in there.
