-Comment: A young boy (probably the main character 10 yo Pianke (pictured), I don't know the name of the actor, I think 9 yo Andreas Groß) and maybe some more in dark brown Lederhosen or shorts. Looks like nappa leather, 2 zippers.

I don't know/don't remember this complete movie yet but looks very interesting setting in Germany during WWII and is about a German and a Jewish family or girl. Novel by Peter Abraham, published in 1981. Movie also contains skinny dipping scenes in the sea/ on a ship.

I haven't found any offival DVD/VHS releases. There is a VHS and maybe a DVD+R probably for usage at schools only. Jugendvideopreis 1994.

I will check this again soon. Rating 7 for now.

La promesa (2004)



Spanish thriller

-Year in film: 2000s ?     
-Country: Spain
-Who in clothing: Daniel ~ 8 ys ?, sailor suit
-Who in clothing 2:
-Available on DVD: yes

-Clothing occurence: low ?   
-Rating:  4/10          
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Santiago Barón in a long white sailor suit (pictured). Long dark blue collar, 3 stripes.

I only saw half of this movie. No sailor suits in the beginning. I only noticed this scene in a church. Quite weird an unusual (for a sailor suit movie, late setting). But the boy is very young.

This is a low budget thriller/horror movie starring Carmen Maura, Juan Margallo and Ana Fernándes. English title "The Promise".

I have to check it completely. Rating 4-5 for now.

-Comment: At least one young boy in buckskin Lederhosen, 2 zippers without suspenders in a locker room at the beginning of the movie, I think also shirtless. Probably the main character Andreas Hoppe, played by Michael Hunger. Maybe more in Lederhosen or shorts.

Sorry, I don't know this complete movie and found it by coincidence (video recommendation).

Novel "Betragen 4" by Alfred Reinhold Böttcher. Reminds me of Alfons Zitterbacke (see that entry). But I can't say much more about this movie.
I have to check this again. Rating 3-4 for now. No VHS/DVD release, no clips on YouTube.

The Wind and the Lion

 

Drama starring Sean Connery, nominated for 2 Oscars
-Year: 1975
-Year in film: 1904     
-Country: USA
-Who in clothing: Jennifer ~ 13 ys, sailor dress
-Who in clothing 2: William ~12 ys knickerbockers
-Available on DVD: yes  
-I own: yes, partly TV recording
-Clothing occurence: medium    
-Rating:  5/10          
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Potty Gottesman in a white sailor dress, white collar, 3 stripes, wide dark blue scarf (pictured). Also Simon Harrison in a brown suit and knickerbockers or similar (pic bottom right on a horse).

I saw nearly the complete movie and it's quite interesting and good unusual setting with a girl in a white sailor dress in a desert of Morocco.

Starring Candice Bergen as their mother (bottom left), Steve Kanaly and Brian Keith as Theodore Rooselvelt.
Riding scenes of all. Film rated PG. Directed by John Milius, music by Jerry Goldsmith ("The Waltons", Star Trek).

I usually don't like those action and desert movies and it could be better. Why no boys in sailor suits? But could be worse.However good plot about a kidnapping and famous actors.

Rating 5.

Comedy, Musical, Romance, Heimatfilm starring Caterina Valente, Rudolf Prack, Ruth Stefan and Rudolf Platte. Directed by Werner Jacobs, screenplay by Curth Flatow.

Generally I don't like boys with curly dark hair (also like Michael Ande) and I also don't like him in "Das Donkosakenlied" but I think this movie might be a bit better.

I hope for a soon broadcasting (also of Dr. Vlimmen), rating 6 for now.

Info 51: New tag USSR, pic updates

Prince John (UK) 1913

Prince Sigvard (Sweden) and others

I now have the tag USSR for Soviet films and updated my PD Picasa album.
I try to find more free pics, the problem is, that such pics often not tagged "sailor suits" elsewhere. I still hope to find free Lederhosen pics.

For Prince John, see also "The Lost Prince"
