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.
