Update: Auf dem Spielplatz (1973)

 

Some more good scenes in the other 2 of the 4 episodes. Pic 1 from ep "Spielen wir zusammen?" with at least a boy in Lederhosen with H-style suspenders. Pic 2 from ep "So ein Spielverderber!" with a boy sitting in Lederhosen, buckskin leather, no suspenders, s zippers. Again also others in shorts. One boy is shirtless in "So ein Spielverderber!". Maybe nappa or smooth finished leather.

Rare and nice, unfortunately again poor image quality filmed off a screen. (Maybe even on purpose, as an earlier account (unknown if same or other user) was closed with mainly FWU films. 

Main post still rating ~5-6

Comment: Some boys in short Lederhosen without suspenders. Some appears like smooth finished and/or nappa leather. Also several boys in short shorts. WDR Schulfernsehen. Not sure about the subject. I think social studies. Aimed at 6-12 yo. Editor/book: Lothar Humburg (long-time editor at WDR, "Moving to Marlborough").

Another one from the 16mm channel. This time a series in 4 parts, 15 minutes each. Pic 1 from ep "Keiner mag mich" (Aka Mich mag keiner, pic 2 from "Ich bin der Größte". Meanwhile he has uploaded episode 3/4 ("So ein Spielverderber!"), but I haven't checked that one yet, probably similar. Part 4 should be "Spielen wir zusammen".

Directed by Sven Schürenberg (1922-1973). No entry of this series on IMDb. But on Filmportal.de. First aired in 1974. The series also contains puppetry "Tim und der Löwe" by Gerhard Mensching. I remember having seen this, bt maybe not in that series.

Rating ~5-6 for now. 

Update: Also more good scenes in the other 2 episodes. At least one boy with H-style suspenders and one shirtless

Comment: At least this blond boy in Lederhosen without suspenders but 2 zippers. Seems shiny so could be smooth finished or more likely nappa leather. From the 16mm channel.

Not bad but poor image quality and I think only one very brief scene. Unknown movie makers, maybe touristic purpose.

Rating ~(3)-4.

Comment: At least this boy (not sure about his name) in a sailor suit, white blouse, dark blue pants 7/8th and straw hat. Blue collar, 3 stripes. There's another boy maybe in same suit at least pants but closed blue jacket. Scene from ep 5 set in 1914. Pic at 26. I only noticed this brief scene. Series covers years from 1867-1974 set in Vienna. Found by coincidence on YouTube. Briefly checked some episodes, but I don't assume more scenes of interest. Uniforms?

Nice but for the brief scenes rating ~4-5.

Few good scenes. Most of interest the sailor suit of the doll. Based on a podcast.

Comment: At least this girl in a nice short dark blue sailor dress. Collar with 2 stripes. Red scarf. Also at least a girl in blue shortalls or mor likely a dress. I first found 2 short clips then 5 short clips on YouTube what could almost be the complete movie. But later also one complete official clip. Director Tamela D'Amico. Quite late 1946 setting.

In fact I was searching for the 1999 Italian movie "Volare!". 

Rating ~3.

Comment: An older boy maybe in Lederhosen. Looks shiny, maybe nappa leather? But maybe some sort of synthetic fabric. The image quality is quite poor.

Another one from the 16mm channel. Short scene at minute 12. 

Rating 4-5 for this brief scene.

Aka Elternschule. Series 1964-1975. The uploader has at least one other episode. maybe more to come.

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).

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

https://sailorsuitsandlederhosenfilmblog.blogspot.com/2011/11/st-florianer-sangerknaben.html

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.

Available on DVD: yes

Clothing occurrence: low ?        
Rating:  4/10 ?

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.
