Drama aka Hide and Seek
Year: 1980
Year in film: 1946  
Country: Israel
Who in clothing: girls, sailor dresses
Who in clothing 2: boys hist. clothes
Available on DVD: no ?  
I own: no
Clothing occurrence: very low ?        
Rating:  3/10 *     
Rating: ***
Comment: At least 2 girls in different sailor dresses. More of interest some boys in white undershirts. It almost looks like my missing Italian assumed unknown film 9 but it's unlikely (hair at ears). Also interesting plot. First Israeli feature film about homosexuality. Main character is a 12 yo boy and his teacher.

For the girls rating ~2-3. Movie probably much higher. 

I haven't found the full movie yet but a trailer on the directors site (Wolmandan) with these pics.

Machboim is the official title. Hebrew title  .מחבואים

Comment: New post. A recommendation on YouTube. Directed by Philippe Reypens on his official channel "(L'or des anges (1998)", a great documentary of choirs, must have on DVD). 

2 boys, one in blue, other in white sailor suit. Unfortunatley mainly from a distance and few scenes. No entry on IMDb. 2024 upload.

Rating ~3-(4).

Unknown 24= Visperas (1987)

I found my recording and understood some names and easily found this series (ep 1). Spanish was correct (Andalusia, 1900s). I prepared for uploading, but it's already there. Ep 1-3, full series on Spanish broadcaster rtve. Keywords on IMDb missing, also no results on Google Lens. Logo is from German's Kabelkanal, now Kabel Eins (used 1992-1994).

Unknown 23= Jean le Bleu (1979)


I found and uploaded a clip of this very rare French TV movie. I don't have the complete one. Set in 1905.

Mentioned here with one screenshot I found earlier in my collection. I haven't found any pics nor clips online.

Traditional German Dance - Folk Dance

 

I found this nice 3 minute clip on YouTube. Uploader Thuiringer. Young boys and girls with Schuhplattler, Watschnplattler and spanking (Gaudiplattler/Schinkenklopfer).

I have similar posts

Watschnplattler (slap dance, slap in the face) and clapping with benches I also remember in a Heimatfilm (men) but I currently don't recall the title, maybe in So liebt und küsst man in Tirol. Or Im weißen Rössl (1952) and/or 1960)? One with young boys very similar is in Die fröhliche Wallfahrt (re-uploaded).

One Schuhplattler is in Schön ist die Welt.

Comment: New post. Suggestion from JN. Thanks Johnny! 2 boys in rare dark blue sailor suits at minute 29. I think a brief scene only. I think Jobe and Nash Zammit-Harvey. 2 stripes, also on front of the knee length pants. I found another boy and or both boys (I think in total 3) in other clothes. Of course many in historical clothes.

Interesting suits. But for the brief scene rating ~4 only.

Based on a play. Director and main character by Leah Purcell.

Kinder Schuhplattler D´Wolfganger

I found on YouTube this 12 minute clip with some boys from Trachtengruppe D´Wolfganger (Sankt Wolfgang, Salzkammergut, Austria). Uploader lobsterangel. Most boys are very young, though.

I think few good scenes. There are also other clips. But I haven't checked them.

The von Trapp Family: A Life of Music

 


Biography/drama
Year: 2015
Year in film: 1930s  
Country: USA, D, A
Who in clothing: Werner ~11, Rupert ~14, man Lederhosen
Who in clothing 2: boys, girls, sailor suits
Available on DVD: yes  
I own: no
Clothing occurrence: low ?        
Rating:  4/10 ?     
Rating: ****
Comment: New post. At least the 2 boys (Rupert and younger Werner, played by Austrian Finnian and Christopher Hipper, younger kids by Luca Russegger and Emanuel Promberger, but I think these are the older shown); in other movies Friedrich 14 and Kurt 11 yo) and a man (I think dad) in longer Lederhosen with H-style suspenders and they and their sisters (this time the younger kids) in blue sailor suits. German title: Die Trapp Familie - Ein Leben für die Musik. Also starring Yvonne Catterfeld as Maria Gustl (Augusta). I think some more more supporting actors in Lederhosen, at least men. Also uniforms.

I found this by coincidence on IMDb and still have to check the full movie. I assume few good scenes though. Pics from the trailers. Rating ~4 for now.

I also have the 2 original movies, Sound of Music, and some more related musicals

Info 2: Unknown Finnish 1989 series or movie (shiny shorts) = Tuomas (1989)

 


I have found and uploaded the full short film. And I found the title (due to the following program on my VHS). It's Tuomas. No entry on IMDb. The plot is about a young deaf boy. Now with sound. It wasn't dubbed (few dialogues). Also speedo scenes.

I will delete my earlier clip. Main post here.
