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.

Update: Die Feuerzangenbowle (1944)
Has been aired recently but this time, I have only watched the beginning and later checked it and found one more scene of boys in sailor suits and also a lady.
Pic 1 at 44 minutes, pic 2 at 11 minutes, pic 3 at 1h18. But all scenes are rather short and from a distance. I don't like this movie. Most students are very old. New tag: hats.
Main entry, rating 3 at

Update: Emil und die Detektive (1954)
Has just been aired and I've seen it almost completely. Many boys in Lederhosen including H-style suspenders and smooth finished leather (also cycling and skating) but mainly from a distance and in the last 15 minutes. Fewer scenes of around 3 boys only in the major parts of the movie. Also men and a brief spanking scene and nice rear views.
More infos and new pics in the main entry, still rating 5, maybe 6.
Rather few good scenes and those from a distance. I prefer Heimatfilms. Interesting scenes of 1950s Berlin. The plot is somehow a bit weak, although from Erich Kästner.
Needs to be rechecked more carefully at slow speed.

Again, A Merry Christmas! This show has been rebroadcasted yesterday on WDR. I have only seen some few parts at the end. Filmed in Salzburg or Saulzburg region, the location of the famous Christmas song Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht. (Silent Night, Holy Night).
Not sure about the name of the choir, maybe der Kinderchor der Gumpoldskirchner Spatzen. Hosts Sonja Weissensteiner and Harald Krassnitzer.
Rating at least 4-5. Needs to be rechecked. I didn't expect Lederhosen this year at Christmas, as I can't receive Bavarian channel BR anymore.

Update 2: Heidemelodie
During research for pics for my other blogs, I found some larger pics of this very good and rare movie (rating 10, TOP#1, smooth finished Lederhosen).
Pic 2 is new and showing another boy on the left at school. Maybe it's then same boy pictured in pic 1 (blonde, same shirt). The redhaired boy on the right is also shown at the doctor (pic in the main entry).
Unfortunately still not on DVD. I have to recheck if I have a TV recording. But if so, then most likely not completely.

–Comment: 2 boys in historical clothes (pants with suspenders), 1 blonde, one darkhaired. Also girls, teens and grown-ups. The Musical is a special version of A Christmas Story (Charles Dickens) currently shown in Nordhausen.
The ballet group is the Bundesjugendballett Berlin. But not sure if the young kids are also located there. And not sure if they are playing in Nordhausen. Or part of that theatre (Kinderstatisterie).
The kids also decorating cookies at a table for a long time later (also sitting rear view). Musical scene at around 40 minutes (mediathek). A short clip is also on YouTube.
The blond boy reminds me of another boy actor. Not sure who. Louis Hofmann?

Quite interesting, rating 4-5 for now. Starring Harry Baur as Rasputin.
Jean Claudio also appeared in Les cadets de l'océan as 15 yo but older looking sailor and also in another movie I have.

–Who in clothing 2: others?

–Comment: At least this young, blonde boy in short buckskin Lederhosen with H-style suspenders at the end of ep 2 which has been aired today. Front and rear view while walking. Probably some more boys and men in later episodes?
I wanted to post another Rasputin movie (coming next) but first this airing.
One of the most famous German 80s family series. Also starring grown-up Sascha Hehn. English title: The Black Forest Hospital.
I have to check the later episodes, but obviously few Lederhosen. Most scenes of the grown-ups are boring.
Rating 6 for now.

Update: Ein irres Feeling
This movie is very rare and expensive and currently on YouTube called "Late Lounge Heimkino | Ein irres Feeling" unfortunately with 2 people in front of it and sometimes pausing it. Available as single DVD (42 EUR), VHS or on a compilation DVD, even rare. Starring Karl Dall. Pics 1+2 at ~26 minutes. Another scene inside at ~24 min.
Nice boy with dental braces shirtless in smooth finished or nappa leather with suspenders. But few scenes. Also men in shiny shorts. Typical 80s comedy film.
Main entry, rating 7

https://web.archive.org/web/20160310170603/http://www.rochusschule.de/schulleben/2010_alteschule_3b.htm
I also remember a very good pic of boys, rear view, showing the collar flaps (boys seeing the collars of the boys in the front seats). Not sure if it was this school. pic 3c isn't available.
