–Comment: One older boy (on the right) in buckskin Lederhosen without suspenders and maybe some more boys running downstairs but from a distance and in jackets (looks like with H-style suspenders). Scene at the beginning. Other boys in shorts and pajamas. Unfortunately almost the complete movie is set during the winter.

Also a boy wearing a wig with pigtails (soon on my other blog, rating 8). And nice dorm scenes (soon on my bedroom blog, rating ~7).

Very interesting movie but few Lederhosen scenes. The much more famous 1973 remake still needs to be checked completely. I don't like the 70s and don't remember Lederhosen there. Summer setting and speedos. The setting in the 1933 novel is much earlier. As the plot is timeless, they obviously choose the presence for each movie.

The 2003 movie featuring a boy's choir (Thomanerchor) in sailor suits but is quite poor (rating 2).

Rating 3-4 for the brief Lederhosen scenes. Movie much higher. I almost bought it.
