-Clothing occurrence: low
-Rating:  4/10 *
-Rating: ****
-Comment: One boy, about 11 yo in light brown buckskin Lederhosen without suspenders (pictured), just 2 short scenes. I don't know his name. And the Lederhosen are a bit too big (or the boy too thin). Blond boy but not very handsome. The other actor (main boy character and film brother of Walter Giller) is12 or 13 yo Harald Martens as Eugen (also starring in Vater, Mutter und neun Kinder", rating 7). Good light grey shorts. He's often shown and not as thin. There is also an older third boy in dark grey shorts sitting together in a bar and later going outside. The boy in Lederhosen was wearing then dark blue shorts.

Typical romance/musical/comedy film of the late 1950s. I have announced this movie earlier, now finally a complete entry. Also starring singer Freddy Quinn, comedian Gisela Schlüter and Gardy Granass. Novel by Aldo von Pinelli. Directed by Hans Quest ("Wenn der Vater mit dem Sohne" "Tante Frieda - Neue Lausbubengeschichten" (rating 8), "Charleys Tante").

I don't like this movie. And the few Lederhosen scenes are weak. I think not shown from behind.

Rating 3-4 for Lederhosen scenes, the shorts scenes are much better.

Update: I forgot to add the tag choir. There's a men's choir but boy soloist Harald Mertens singing very well a catching tune. Also quite good jeans.

Exclusive pic#26 communion boys Amiens

This photo postcard showing two communion boys from Amiens, France. Completely dressed in white (except for the collars), including white shoes, short socks and gloves and the white ribbon at their arms. The right boy has a regular sailor collar, 3 stripes but the collar flaps seems to be short. Also note the white scarf. The boy on the left has an unusual very long collar (at least at the front and maybe at the back as well, I wish I could see it). The collar (maybe both) are simply put over the head. So no complicated binding at the waist and no dickeys. Left collar has 5 thin stripes. Quite interesting.

Photographer was called Crampon. Maybe made in the 1920s. Click for high res pic.

Info 134: Update: Die Landärztin (1958)

Unfortunately no more other scenes, but the scene of the blond shirtless boy in Lederhosen doing hay work is quite good although in the distance.

In fact I already had an entry with the original title "Die Landärztin vom Tegernsee", and also had seen it completely but missed this short scene (originally rated 1-2, with a pic of another boy maybe in Lederhosen or shorts, this time I missed that one.) I often watch movies at high speed and sometimes leaving the room for a short time or don't watch to the screen for one moment.

Rating 4-5 now.

-Comment: One young boy and one even younger girl in sailor suit/sailor dress. The girl is pictured in pic 2+3.

Thanks for this suggestion! I only checked this movie on YouTube at high speed and I only noticed this very short scenes of kids (the boy right at the beginning, the girl at 13 minutes). At least her collar is shown close-up. If there are more scenes, please comment.

Very famous movie aka "M - Eine Stadt sucht einen Mörder", (Morders Among Us) starring Peter Lorre, Theo Lingen and Gustaf Gründgens. Timeless plot about a child murderer. Maybe b&w movies and not for everyone and for the few sailor suit scenes I can't give a higher  rating than 2-3. It's also nothing special that kids wearing sailor suit in the early 1930s. However it's quite rare to show kids in thrillers. I think Metropolis (1927) is much better and even more famous.

I have seen this movie many years ago and couldn't remember all scenes, so I will check and update it again the next broadcasting. I also have updated Rheinsberg (1967) but no need for more pics. Still rating 6 (good but few period clothing, including bathing costumes/suits). Die Landärztin (1958) will be updated in 1 or 2 days (see previous entry).

Info 133: On TV Today Oct. 3rd

Now Running "Die Landärztin" (1958) , pictured, confirmed boy in Lederhosen on 3sat. Rebroadcasting tonight. Entry coming soon.

Then "Schwarzwaldmädel" (1950) rating 4 (I have seen it completely)

/2011/12/31/schwarzwaldmadel-1950/

Then Rheinsberg (1967), sailor suits, I don't know completely yet, (already have some pics, rating 6 for now), will be updated soon

/2011/12/16/rheinsberg-1967/

There was also a 4th Heimatfilm which will be rebroadcasted, but I don't assume Lederhosen scenes in that.

At least one regular entry later this day.

Update: One pic yet of Die Landärztin. A shirtless boy in Lederhosen and some others working in the hay. Sadly no good close-up view. Later a very youg boy in Lederhosen, also in the distance. I can't say more yet, as I missed about the first half. Later only this scene of interest. I have to check it tomorrow at the rebroadcasting.

Das Münchner Oktoberfest - Die Erfindung einer bayerischen Erfolgsgeschichte

Documentary, Oktoberfest and traditional clothing
-Year: 2010
-Year in film: 2010, earlier
-Country: Germany
-Who in clothing: boys, Lederhosen
-Who in clothing 2: other traditional clothing
-Available on DVD: no ?
-I own: yes, partly TV recording
-Clothing occurence: low ?
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Some kids in traditional clothing, including boys in long Lederhosen. Also historical b&w footage of the Oktoberfest. So maybe more in Lederhosen. Probably at least men.

Had been aired last Saturday and had been rebroadcasted yesterday. Documentary with this title, the main show was called THEMA: Oktoberfest 2012. Unfortunately I missed about the first half. Interesting (short) history of traditional (Bavarian) clothing (Tracht, I didn't knew that it was originated from aristocrats, obviously the Wittelsbacher) and of course the history of the Oktoberfest. Sadly it can't be watched again (no mediathek). But maybe it will be rebroadcasted later (maybe next year or perhaps even earlier on a different channel).

One very short scene and only this two frames are of interest (from what I've recorded).  Good brown real Lederhosen 5th boy on the left (1st pic). Also some close-up scenes (of Lederhosen, I thought there were short Lederhosen). Some kids can't be seen as they are behind the girls. Extremely flat straw hat the girl on the left is wearing. At the end there were thanks to Volkstheater Flintsbach (and Freilichtmuseum Glentleiten, capella vocale Iffeldorf and others). So I think they might be a kids theater group (of Flintsbach, probably in 2010) as the girls were saying some historical theatralic words.

I hope that I will see it again.

Rating 5 for now.

Info 132: Update Der Bauerndoktor von Bayrischzell

As announced an update of this movie after completely seen.

Rare movie with girls, teen girls, boys (and of course men) in Lederhosen. But fewer scenes than thought. Still rating 5. Not available on DVD/VHS. 2 more pics including  a shirtless boy at the doctor at the main entry.
