Het zakmes


Family film and TV series, Emmy Award
-Year: 1992
-Year in film: 1990s ?
-Country: The Netherlands
-Who in bibs: Mees ~9 ys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  3/10 ?
-Rating: ***
-Comment: 9 yo Olivier Tuinier as 6 yo Mees (pictured) in blue bibs. Also in a jacket with a white collar similar to a sailor collar (see clip, I think no bibs in there).
Another suggestion. Thanks. I think I have even seen it many years ago. But the actor looks much younger than 9 and I usually don't add those films with very young actors. Of course I make exceptions for very famous actors or famous or good movies or something like this. I don't remember it completely, but I think I don't like this movie, however might have a good plot.

Famous novel by Sjoerd Kuyper ("De rode zwaan", rating 10, "De freules", see my other blog for a boy in a sailor suit). 14 awards including Emmy Award, Gouden Calf and Cinekid Award. Filmed in 1991 and also aired as a TV series in 7 parts a 20 minutes. International title "The Pocket-knife".
I have to check this again. Rating 3 for now.

Waking Up in Reno


Romance starring Patrick Swayze
-Year: 2002
-Year in film: 2000s ?
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Darlene ~39 ys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  4/10 ?
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Natasha Richardson (1963-2009) in blue bibs (pictured). Another movie from the "Chicks list". (Thanks and best wishes to Tabman).
Sorry, I don't know and probably don't like this comedy /romance movie (rated R). Also starring Billy Bob Thornton and Holmes Osborne, directed by Jordan Brady.

There are a lot of movies like that and I also don't like Patrick Swayze. I also don't like these bibs. Look a bit too small or worn a bit baggy at least on the pic. Not sure about the amount of bib scenes. But could be worse. Blond women, blue bibs, funny movie, but nothing special. Rating 4-5 for now. Richardson was born in England, so also tagging non-USA.

Book 13: Anna on the Farm

Mary Downing Hahn: Anna on the Farm. 152 pages. Illustrations by Diane de Groat.

The plot is about 9 yo Anna who visited her uncle's farm in the 1910s without her parents. There is also an older orphaned boy. Both in bibs. Autobiographical.

My first book with a girl in bibs as main character. In fact she wore the bibs of Theodore. Lots of bib scenes, swimming in underwear, farm work, spanking and else.
First she wore a dress, but gets dirty and so she had to wear overalls. First she didn't like those boys pants.

Most parts until page 60 can be read at Google Books.

I have read almost half of it and it's quite good. The book is written in simple English with quite big letters and has some full page illustrations (which could be better). One small photo of the author and 3 boys, one in worn bibs in 1914). She looks much older and cleaner than the girl on the book cover.


It's not the first book with Anna, but probably the only one with bibs.

I have read another book before that by Gary Paulsen (depicting a boy in bibs and also farm contents) but no bib scenes mentioned there. However good description of farm life and 2 brothers and I like it. Paulsen also wrote Harris and Me (see book entry 2).

Update Dec 17: Completely read. The book (or half of it) is quite good. Some funny parts, the drawings showing some key scenes. And a good description of the one week farm holiday of Anna and playing with the boy. But no special facts that this should be set in the 1910s. Beginning and end without bibs. I marked the following pages:

P 26, 32 dressing on bibs, 60 braids, 71 acts like a boy, 78 pulling pigtails, 88 feeling of wet overalls, 97 two other boys (don't like girls in boys pants).

La educación de las hadas


Drama, Goya Award
-Year: 2006
-Year in film: 2000s
-Country: Spain, Argentina, France, Portugal
-Who in bibs: Raul ~9  ??
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: very low ?
-Rating:  3/10 ?
-Rating: ***
-Comment: Victor Valdivia (pictured) in red bibs. I don't know this complete movie. Novel "L'éducation d'une fée" by French Didier Van Cauwelaert and directed by José Luis Cuerda, international title "The Education of Fairies".
Maybe a quite good fantasy film but I have to check it completely.
Now I've seen that Cuerda did also another interesting movie with a boy in blue bibs called "La lengua de las mariposas" (1999) aka "Butterfly's Tongue" (rated R) which might be even better (and got even more awards).
I assume few bib scenes and I don't think that I would like this film, so rating 3-4 for now only.

Update: These are shortalls. Also added tag sitting M. Previously rating 4 now 3. No need for re-uploading the pic from the update. Sitting but rather poor pic in the car.

Info 106: Update 2: 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain



I have updated again that movie entry and added 2 pics of the boy (pic above) and the girl Amanda (shown on both pics). No more new pics than shown here.
Sorry still, no pics of women. I have to wait for the next broadcasting and have to check it again.

Now rated 7 (how could I rate this with 4?) Very good film. I had focussed earlier only on the 3 main boy actors. Very good shortalls scene, see below, isn't it?  (but mostly hard to see in the rest of this movie).
I wonder if bibs (and especially shortalls) are mainly worn by girls in the 90s.
I have also added a new trailer, as the old one had been deleted (however few scenes of the girl). Looks very much like a tomboy. Usually I don't like shortalls.

For more infos see it's entry

/2011/01/3-ninjas-high-noon-at-mega-mountain.html


Info 105: Dorothée, French lady in pink bibs


Dorothée (real name Frédérique Hoschedé, born 1953 in Paris) in pink bibs and a yellow belt. Pic from clip "Si j'ai menti" (1994), not 100% sure if all women are really Dorothée. Also some in aprons.
Also a good pic with her sitting in pink bibs on the CD cover "Dorothée au pays des chansons" (1980). There is also a movie or TV show with her singing, but I noticed her only in a pink dress there. Also 2 other CD covers with her in bibs.
And also in a blue sailor dress on CD "Le jardin des chansons - Volume 9.

I don't know much more from her. Not really a movie or series. But I give rating 4. Perhaps someone likes her.

Christmas in My Hometown


TV family Christmas film starring Melissa Gilbert
-Year: 1996
-Year in film: 1990s ?
-Country: Canada
-Who in bibs: Noelle ~11 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: 10 or 11 yo Michelle Trachtenberg in blue bibs (pictured). I have checked only the first half of this movie and there are few bib scenes in there. But a quite good family movie aka "A Holiday for Love" starring Tim Matheson, Jayne Eastwood and Chris Makepeace. Have to check again, rating 5-6 for now. There are probably better movies, also Christmas movies with bibs. But as it's almost Christmas time I want to add it as well. Not sure about farm content, but this might be not the main plot. No clips on YouTube. Other movies with her in bibs are "A Father's Choice" (rating 6) and Richie Rich's Christmas Wish (rating 4, I think snow bibs). Other Christmas movie can be found using the blog search. One good is "Papa's Angels" with a girl and teen boy in bibs.

Added tags girls (forgot), men.

The Missouri Traveler


 Family movie starring Brandon De Wilde (PD)
-Year: 1958
-Year in film: 1926
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Biarn 15  
-Available on DVD: yes + download
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: often ?
-Rating:  7/10 ?
-Rating: *******
-Comment: Brandon De Wilde (1942-1972) as orphan who ran away in heavy worn dark blue bibs (2 picture) and later also in clean raw denim bibs (pic on top and below). I don't know the complete movie yet. It's available at archive.org and YouTube

http://www.archive.org/movies/thumbnails.php?identifier=Missouri_Traveler_1958

Novel by John Buress. Not sure about the time and the age of his character. Other sources say 14 yo in the 1910s. The raw denim bibs look much better and I will update it soon. Also starring Lee Marvin. Rating 7-8 for now. I like those period films /drama/ coming-of-age movies and westerns. Maybe one of the best Public Domain movies in color. Uploaded recently on archive.org that's why I haven't found it earlier.


Magic in the Water


Family movie starring Joshua Jackson
-Year: 1995
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: Canada, USA
-Who in bibs: Ashley ~9 ?
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes, TV recording
-Bib occurrence: low-
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Sarah Wayne barefoot in light blue shortalls (pictured). Also sitting in the water in bibs and coming out of it. Only some scenes at the second half of the movie and mostly set in the dark cave with that Nessie like sea monster. 16 or 17 yo Joshua Jackson shirtless.
Film is quite entertaining (rated PG), but I don't like it. Girl is also very young and was nominated for a Young Artist Award. Also starring Mark Harmon, Harley Jane Kozak and Adrian Dorval. Rating 3-4 only.

Update: Pic 1 at 56 minutes. Obviously rather few scenes at the end. Adding tag Sitting F.

104: Update: 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain

I am now watching this movie again (still running). More shortalls scenes than thought. And also some women in the background.

Now rating 6 instead of 4.

No new pics yet. Entry at

 /2011/01/3-ninjas-high-noon-at-mega-mountain.html

Update 2: Also at least one boy in shortalls. And one perfect scene with the girl in shortalls lying on the ground. I will update (and announce) this again soon and I think have to change my rating again.

Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm (1938)


Farm family movie starring Shirley Temple
-Year: 1938
-Year in film: 1900s ??
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Rebecca ~10 ys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  4/10 ?
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Shiley Temple in (according to the movie poster) beige bibs and a straw hat (pictured). After finding her in a white sailor suit in "Captain January (1936)", see my other blog, rating 3, I also found this movie. At the colorized trailer at IMDb I "only" found women in sailor dresses, so I also have to add this on my other blog as well.

Farm content and probably a quite good movie, also starring Randolph Scott, Jack Haley and Gloria Stuart, novel by Kate Douglas Wiggin. But I don't think I would like this movie. But I have to check for others in bibs and the other versions of that novel. But could be worse. So rating 3-4 for now. There is also a recommendation at IMDb for the musical "Curly Top (1935) showing a cover with her in blue jeans bibs, b/w but also available colorized. So I will check also that. Not on archive.org, so unsure if PD.

Father and Scout


TV family film starring Brian Bonsall
-Year: 1994
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boy ~12 ys ??
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recording
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  6/10 ?
-Rating: ******
-Comment: Another suggested movie. There should be a boy in 2/3 of this film. I even have seen it some years ago and only remembered the soccer scenes with boys in perfectly yellow shiny shorts (and other team in blue ones). I think I even must have a TV recording (probably only partly on VHS).
Can't even find bib scenes on the parts (50%) which are on YouTube. So I have to check this again the next broadcasting. Would be helpful at what running time the best scenes are. Not sure if it's even a boy pictured? Couldn't find any better pics as I don't like watching or downloading complete movies online.

However I like Brian Bonsall and those films. Also starring Bob Saget, Heidi Swedberg, Stuart Pankin and Kimberly Scott. Rated PG. I think it's a good family movie, but not sure if I would buy it on DVD. Rating 5-6 for now.

Katok i skripka


Russian drama. Short film.
-Year: 1961
-Year in film: 1960s?
-Country: Soviet Union
-Who in bibs: boy ~10 ys ?
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low ?
-Rating:  3/10
-Rating: ***
-Comment: At least a young boy in rare, light blue bibs with a small bib (pictured), I don't know his name. Are they even bibs?

I searched for an unknown sailor suit movie at histclo, also couldn't find it but found this student movie work by director Andrey Tarkovskiy ("Solaris (1972)", "Ivan's Childhood").
Also one or more boys in shorts pants and is probably something for my Lederhosen blog (but most likely not of leather).

Film aka "The Steamroller and the Violin" or "The Skating Rink and the Violin", original title "Каток и скрипка". 46 minutes. I didn't watched it completely, but I assume rather few bib scenes. In one scene he has his right strap down.
I don't like these unusual bibs. However this movie might be interesting, but not sure if I would like it. But I wanted to add it here. Rating 3 for now.

Schloss Einstein - ep. 486


German TV series about a boarding school. 14+ seasons
-Year: 1998-
-Year in film: 2008
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: Felicitas ~12 ys
-Available on DVD: yes *
-I own: yes, TV recordings
-Bib occurence: medium *
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Sabrina Wollweber in blue bibs (pictured) in episode 486 (S 11.06). Some scenes also sitting in the classroom and also sitting and walking outside, but with a jacket, sometimes closed. So I hadn't noticed this earlier and didn't watch out for girls in bibs then. One girl, I think the same actress sitting in blue coveralls later at a party. Also farm content with 2 boys only, but not in bibs in this and/or earlier episodes.

I checked my older recordings which are still on my hard disc recorder (for deletion) and found this actress. But I don't like her, there are better boys and girls acting there and there are many kids. The first one or two season set in Erfurt are still quite good, but I prefer the earlier ones set in fictional village Seelitz. Good plot here (red haired boy Tim, can't read and write properly in 6th grade and had a faked broken hand, also dramatic scenes with an accident and a mother with cancer). For more infos about this series see it's main entry, rating 5 with boys and girls in bibs/shortalls (but rather few scenes in total).
DVDs of season 11 and up are available and some episodes in a best of box.

Update: I think these bibs are baggy/oversized. Pic at

An Officer and a Gentleman (1982)


Romance starring Richard Gere, 2 Oscars
-Year: 1982
-Year in film: 1980s ?  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Lynette ~24 ys   
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low ?
-Rating:  4/10 ?
-Rating: ****
-Comment: At least one younger woman in bibs (I think that's Lisa Blount, pictured, died 2010 aged 53, R.I.P., nominated for a Golden Globe, first I thought that it's Debra Winger).

Yet another movie from the "chicks" list. I don't know this film and don't like those army/ drama/ romance movies (rated R, 124 minutes). Also starring Debra Winger, David Keith, David Catuso, Victor French, Lisa Blount and a lot of other (women). Directed by Taylor Hackford. Not sure of others in bibs but probably only very few bib scenes (but don't look bad).
I have to check it again. Rating 4 for now.

Magiczne drzewo (2003)


Kids fantasy series, 7 episodes
-Year: 2003-2006
-Year in film: 2000s ?  
-Country: Poland
-Who in bibs: boy ~  9 ?   
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes, partly TV recording
-Bib occurrence: medium ?
-Rating:  3/10 ?
-Rating: ***
-Comment: At least one young boy in blue bibs (pictured, I don't remember his name). I saw parts of one episode recently on TV and some on the web. No entry at IMDb of this series. Not to be confused with the 2009 film with the same title (same director). I will check this series and other episodes the next broadcasting. German title (also the same as the movie "Der magische Baum" (translates The Magic Tree). I also saw some men in blue working bibs, but not sure if this is the film or the series.
Boy is very young. Rating 3 for now. But is probably a good family entertainment. Film and series are both released on DVD. Probably different actors, not sure if bibs in the movie.

Update: I have checked parts of all episodes. Obviously very few scenes. Also a girl in medium blue shortalls, skirtalls or more likely a short dress in ep Drewniany Pies. Also 2 men in blue working bibs in ep 6. Maybe also kids in snow bibs? The boy is even younger than 9 and fixing one of his straps. Episode Kostka.

Summer Holiday (1948)


Musical starring Mickey Rooney
-Year: 1948
-Year in film: ~1900  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Tommy ~  10 ys   
-Available on DVD: yes *
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Jackie "Butch" Jenkins (1937-2001, pictured) in light brown bibs. Also in a very good short sailor suit and of course lots of others in historical clothing of the 1900s.
I'm glad to find some clips of this early Technicolor musical and also consider buying it. However I assume few or medium bib scenes (probably more than sailor suit scenes) as he is not the main character. But I like this freckled kid actor. He also starred 1947 in "My Brother Talks to Horses" (b&w, see that entry, rating 4 incl. farm content).
Perhaps there are even more actors in bibs. 
I have to check and update this entry. For more infos about this movie, sailor suit pics and another clip, see it's recent entry on my sailor suit blog. Rating 5 for bib scenes (and 7 for sailor suit) for now.

The Tony Danza Show (1997)

Sitcom starring Tony Danza, 14 episodes
-Year: 1997-1998
-Year in film: 1990s  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: girl Mickey 11   
-Available on DVD: no?
-I own: no, partly TV recording
-Bib occurrence: low+ ?
-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Ashley Malinger (pictured) in regular blue bibs (In the clip they appear light blue/heavy stone washed, perhaps my capture was a bit dark). Also starring Majandra Delfino as 16 yo sister (probably not in bibs). I have found this picture (below) from one of my old VHS tapes of the early 2000s. I don't remember this series but I think there were worse ones. Only 4 episodes had been aired in the US but was completely shown in Germany, called "Ein Vater zum Küssen". Ashley is the sister of Ross Malinger ("Toothless (1997)"). The bib scenes are not so bad, bibs seem a bit baggy. Rating 4-5. Also starring Maria Canals-Barrera, Shaun Weiss and Dean Stockwell. Not to be confused with the talk show of the same name (2004-2006).

Update: also in blue shortalls in s1e5. Good sitting scenes in both. Probably rather rating 6-7.

Let's Sing Again (1936)


 
PD musical starring Bobby Breen
-Year: 1936
-Year in film: 1930s ? 
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boys ~8-13    
-Available on DVD: yes, download
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Lots of boys (at least 10) in dark (raw denim?) bibs (pictured). 
I found this Public Domain feature film (70 minutes) on the web. I haven't seen it completely yet, but I assume few scenes at the beginning only.  It's about an 8 yo orphaned boy soprano (Breen, I think he is the small boy pictured on the top right). I like classic movies and am still searching for both blogs. I have already found another b/w movie with a girl, but make some other color posts in between. Authentic bibs, quite interesting plot, so rating 5 for now.
Movie is available remastered on DVD, on YouTube and for streaming and download at archive.org

-Who in bibs: Benny ~9 ys   
-Available on DVD: yes *

-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: German Raphael Ghobadloo in blue bibs (pictured). Another suggestion. Thanks. I think I have even seen it some years ago but can't remember it. Quite good film, but could be better. I saw many parts throughout this complete movie, but couldn't find much good bib scenes.

Spin-off of the Kommissar Rex series 1994-2004. Also starring Christine Neubauer. I saw a German VHS release and some foreign DVDs (partly in DVD boxes), but probably not yet released officially on a single German DVD. Boy is quite sympathic and kids and dogs and Christmas always are successful ingredients and here of a famous franchise. Rating 4-5 for now but I will check this again next broadcasting. No trailers on YouTube.

1981


Canadian coming-of-age movie
-Year: 2009
-Year in film: 1981 
-Country: Canada
-Who in bibs:boy ~11
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes, partly TV recording
-Bib occurence: low
-Rating:  3/10 *
-Rating: ***
-Comment: A kid in bibs (pictured on left), not sure if this is a girl. Weird and short nightmare scene like "The Little Prince" with a german officer of the 30s in b/w. The female teacher wears a dress also looking like bibs.

I watched this movie yesterday but missed the first 20 or 30 minutes. Quite good family film starring the 11 yo director Ricardo Trogi (played by Jean-Carl Boucher) and his friends. I only noticed this short bib scene and have to check it again. Probably there are more scenes like at school (seen from behind in the trailer). I like the 80s, but can't rate any higher than 3 for this bib scene. Good regular jeans of the 80s including cycling scenes. Good plot and props and scenes of the 80s. The film I would rate 6-7. 

Update: I now have rechecked this complete movie. It's obviously not a girl, but a boy. He also appeared earlier at school. But rather few scenes. Maybe some girls as well in bibs or bibs-like dresses.

Public Enemies (1996)


Thriller/ crime video starring Leah Best
-Year: 1996
-Year in film: ~1931 (bibs) ? 
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boy ~15  ?, man 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  6/10 ?
-Rating: ******
-Comment: At least a teen boy and a man in blue bibs (pictured). I don't know their names and also don't know/don't remember this complete movie.

I found it by coincidence making an image search for a completely unreleated classic movie "Boys of the Streets (1937)".

Bibs look good, but I assume rather few scenes. Starring Theresa Russell (and Leah Best) as legendary Ma Barker (1873-1935, true story about mother and leader of this violent gang). Film aka "Public Enemy" and "Public Enemy #1 (1996)", rated R and not to be confused with the more famous, but I think unrelated but similar  "Public Enemies (2009)" or 2008 movie.

Ma Barker had 4 sons Herman, Lloyd (both credited either as 10 and 11 yo or grown ups in their mid 20s), Arthur and Fred. The boy pictured looks older than 11 yo to me, Freddie credited as grown up only and Arthur Barker not credited at IMDb, so not sure who he is and when this scene is exactly set, perhaps between 1931 and 1935 when the gang was active but maybe earlier.    

Usually I don't like action films and violent movies and have to check this again. I also assume farm or rural content. Rating 6 for now.

Removed deleted vid, added tag teen boys

Info 103: A-Z list

I started to add F/M behind the entries on my A-Z list to indicate if male or female actors. I don't remember all movies (and titles), so there still might be some errors. I will verify that from time to time (with my caps) but I won't create links this time as it's too much work.

Land Girls (2009)


BBC Drama TV series, 15 episodes in 3 seasons
-Year: 2009
-Year in film: 1940s
-Country: UK
-Who in bibs: women 21- ~40 ys 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: often ?
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: At least 4 young women in beige and light brown bibs worn with belts. One or two also in very light pastel-colored blue and turquoise (non-jeans), shorter bibs (see clip). Not sure about the age of each. The youngest is perhaps Jo Woodcock aged 21, the oldest probably Becci Gemmel (pictured). Christine Bottomley was 30. Seline Hizli unknown, maybe also ~30.

This is the last period drama series I found during research for my other blog. Looks similar to "Foyle's War" (see that entry, rating 4).
I don't know this complete series, but it's probably quite interesting about rural life and the Women's Land Army during WWII. Also some kids acting but I don't know of any other actors in bibs. There was also a similar 1998 movie called "The Land Girls" featuring 3 women.
I have to check this again. Rating 4 for now for the bib scenes. I like farm content but not beige bibs. Most will probably like the 21 yo in turqouise bibs.

Some good pics and review is at

Charlie and the Talking Buzzard


Fantasy movie, director Christopher Cain
-Year: 1979
-Year in film: 1970s ?
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Charlie ~ 11  ??
-Available on DVD: VHS only *
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: often
-Rating:  7/10
-Rating: *******
-Comment: Christopher Hanks in blue bibs (pictured). I found this movie many weeks ago but still can't find any clips or trailers on the web. There was a VHS release in 1989 (another earlier in 1984?). I found a DVD offer but that's a VHS transfer. The movie is aka "Buzzard" and only 66 minutes (according to IMDb, other sources say 81minutes). Also starring 14 (or 12 yo) yo Chris Penn (1965-2006, Footloose) and 15 yo Dean Cain. Probably a good children's detective film with a boy, his dog and a talking buzzard. I can't say much more about this movie. Although I usually don't like boys with such glasses and movies of the 70s I would like to see it. Not sure of farm content and his exact age. Rating 5 for now.

Thanks very much db1 for pointing out a new YouTube upload! So I could make new pics (previously a collage and bad quality). Video says 1984 (that was the VHS release). But according to most databases filmed in 1979 or maybe 1978.

Bibs are very good. Looks like 2 different bibs. (Almost) raw denim at the beginning and maybe a bit lighter later (or it's just the sunlight). Tight bibs and also good rear view.

No real farm content. 66 minutes. Unfortunately the young boy isn't very handsome with that glasses and the other handsome blond and darkhaired boys don't wear bibs. Some good sitting scenes but mainly far in the background.

Good movie, I like the 80s (or almost 80s, late 70s). Previously rated 5, now about 7. Probably I would even buy it.

Fixed rating still was 5 (3 new pics, 2 more in the update). Adding tag raw denim and link to the update

Where the Toys Come from


Disney film starring Erin Young
-Year: 1984
-Year in film: 1980s ?
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: girl Robin ~ 9 ys ??
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Erin Young (pictured) in blue bibs (full length). Also in a blue dress looking similar to bibs (or skirtalls). Probably a very good children's movie with animated toys of the 80s (and perhaps vintage other toys), which I don't know/don't remember. Not sure about her age. (According to Rottentomatoes born in 1983, but this is Erin Young IV at IMDb.) She also has very long pigtails. Film is only 58 minutes and was directed by Theodore Thomas, also starring Sab Shimono ("Waterworld"). Released on DVD in 2005 (or 2002). I have to check this again completely, but assume medium bib scenes and probably no other actors in bibs. Rating 5 for now. No trailers.

Uptown Girls


Comedy film starring Brittany Murphy
-Year: 2003
-Year in film: 2000s ?
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Molly ~ 25 ys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low ?
-Rating:  2/10
-Rating: **
-Comment: Brittany Murphy (1977-2009) as 22 yo Molly in blue longer skirtalls (pictured). Yet another movie from the now closed "chicks list". One of the worst bibs I've ever seen on a woman. Not even real bibs and silly childish applications (probably thats part of the plot). Also starring Dakota Fanning in a beige or white apron (which is a bit better and she was nominated for a Young Artist Award) and Heather Locklear. I think I also don't like this movie, though haven't checked it completey. First I even don't want to add this. Perhaps someone likes her. Rating 1-2. Sorry and R.I.P. Rated PG-13.

Info 102: Update


Updating "The Music Man (1962)" on both blogs after completely watching. Many girls and women (some with pigtails) in sailor dresses. Even Ron Howard in sailor suits. Still rating 10 here and rating 9 (was 7) on my sailor suit blog.
I still like it, but consider lower my rating for bibs. Also a bad experience with that DVD edition. Sorry, no girls or women in bibs, but great costumes and film.

Arthur et les Minimoys


Fantasy film, animation and live-action
-Year: 2006
-Year in film: 1960
-Country: France
-Who in bibs: Arthur ~ 13 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes, partly TV recording
-Bib occurtence: low
-Rating:  6/10
-Rating: ******
-Comment: 13 or 14 yo Britain Freddie Highmore ("Charlie and the Chocolate Factory") as 10 yo Arthur in beige bibs (pictured). After finding him in sailor suits in "Deux frères" (Two Brothers), see my other blog, I also found a publicity still with him in these bibs. White sleeveless shirt underneath looks almost shirtless. Although I prefer blue and raw denim bibs and farm contents I like these bibs. I think that most parts of this movie are animations and I don't like those films (might be funny for younger kids). Also interesting for Germans was probably the dubbing voice of Bill Kaulitz. International title "Arthur and the Invisibles", directed by Luc Besson, rated PG. Highmore was nominated for a Young Artist Award. I think the movie was successful and there are 2 sequels (also starring Highmore), not sure if in bibs. Rating 6 for bib scenes.

Removed deleted vid, added tag teen boys

Info 101: Suggestions, Dng Effect closed

Thanks a lot for the movie suggestions. But please don't link to download sites nor streaming sites except YouTube. I'am able to find movies by myself when I have the title. At least I won't publish those comments (perhaps they are more like a mail to me).

The blog The Dng Effect ("chicks list") is now closed again for the public. Blog owner had announced to close it completely and might return in some years.
I understand that. Blogging is very time consuming.
The blog had already been closed in the past (but due to personal problems, spam/and or private contents).

Update November 16th 2011. Blog open again.

Schloss Einstein - ep. 681




German TV series about a boarding school. 14+ seasons
-Year: 1998-
-Year in film: 2011
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: Liz ~ 13 ys, other girl (+boy?)
-Available on DVD: no
-I own: yes, TV recording
-Bib occurence: low
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Viktoria Krause as Elisabeth "Liz" Fuchs in red bibs (pictured above) in episode 681 (14.45). Also another (teen) girl in pink bibs and another teen, probably a boy in light blue bibs (pic below, brief scene). Also Liz with a puppy dog in a barn (sleeping in the hay). Not wearing dental braces anymore.


I haven't noticed bibs in this series for years (last time in season 8). Now even farm content. But only 2 short scenes. As usual good series and good plot, for bib scenes only rating 4. For more about this series (boys, girls, also shortalls) see it's main entry (rating 5)

Selma & Johanna - en roadmovie

 
Swedish family film
-Year: 1997
-Year in film: 1990s ?  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Johanna ~ 13  
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: often ?    
-Rating:  6/10 ?          
-Rating: ******
-Comment: 12 or 13 yo Anna Sjögren (pictured) as 11 yo Johanna in ripped off blue bibs (about 1/2 length or more so much longer than shortalls but tagging so). At some time she is also shown with one strap loose.

I found this movie by coincidence (YouTube recommendation) and don't know/ don't remember it completely. Probably a good family entertaining movie about 2 girls who run away from home. Also starring Grete Havnesköld as Selma (blong pigtails who also starred 5 years ago in Lindgren's "Lotta på Bråkmakargatan" and Johan Widerberg ("Ebba och Didrik"). She looks quite tomboish with her short dark hair and not typical Swedish. I have to check this again. Rating 6 for now. I like Skandinavian movies and series. Clip might not play in some countries and showing parts of the DVD cover. See also full cover for length of bibs. I assume many bib scenes, I don't think she can change her clothes on the road.

Skateboard


 
"Skateboard: The Movie" starring Leif Garrett
-Year: 1978
-Year in film: 1970s  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Brad ~ 17 , teen girl 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low    
-Rating:  5/10          
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Leif Garret (pictured on top in white or beige bibs and shirtless at night in light blue bibs, pic below, or is this another actor?) Also a teen girl in blue bibs (pic right, or is this also a guy?)

Yet another suggestion. Thanks very much. Unfortunately I don't like the 70s (long hair, flaired pants and yellow and brown clothes). I have seen almost the complete movie (except the end, not sure if I missed something there). First bib scene after 1 hour. Lots of tight yellow shorts (mostly of male skateboarders) but also some teen girls/young women in tight shorts. And also some younger boys but not in bibs. Of course this is a cult film about skateboarding. Good film and I even like some scenes, but for bib scenes rating 4-5 only. Film is rated PG and had been released on DVD (probably in quite bad quality). Not to be confused with "Skateboard Kings" 1978 on YouTube which is a British documentary.

According to Jim


Comedy sitcom, 182 episodes in 8 seasons
-Year: 2001-2009
-Year in film: 2002  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Cheryl ~ 35 ys 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recording
-Bib occurence: low ?   
-Rating:  2/10          
-Rating: **
-Comment: Courtney Thorne-Smith (pictured) in blue bibs. I think it was episode 2.9 "Thanksgiving Confidential".And at least in one other episode.
I saw parts of this episode by coincidence yesterday. I like comedy but don't watch this series. Perhaps there are also others in bibs. So I can't say much about it. Starring James Belushi, some kids and many supporting actors. I don't like the actress not even the bibs. Perhaps someone else likes her. So can't rate any higher than 2 for now. Maybe I find some other scenes later but it's rather unlikely. Nominated for 4 Emmy Awards.

A Walk to Remember


Romance starring Mandy Moore
-Year: 2002
-Year in film: 2000s  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: girl Jamie ~ 17  
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?   
-Rating:  5/10 ?         
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Mandy Moore in I believe baggy blue bibs (pictured). Yet another film from the "chicks list" ("The Dng Effect" blog with that list will obviously again be closed soon.) I don't know the complete movie, but I assume few bib scenes, I only noticed her in bibs at school and in a bus (also showing partly her backside). She won a MTV Movie Award and a Teen Choice Award. Film rated PG. Also starring Shane West, Peter Coyote and Daryl Hannah. Best selling novel by Nicholas Sparks. I usually don't like romances. Few bib scenes. Rating 5-6 for now.    

When standing, bib at quite low position.

Info 100: Updates, purchases, thoughts


One minor update of "Mama is unmöglich" (rating 6, girls) now also 12 yo Tobias Retzlaff and men in bibs (no more infos there and same pic as above, few scenes). Pictured left Marie-Luise Schramm, but probably not in bibs anymore in this 3rd season.

I finally have bought "The Music Man (1962)" (rating 10, boys, men) although I already knew the complete movie. I haven't watched it yet and will update this soon.

I also have bought 2 books. One I'm just reading, but no bib scenes yet, another one I haven't received yet is "Anna on the Farm" by Mary Downing Hahn. It's about a 9 yo girl and an older boy set in the late 1910s. Lots of bib scenes (many parts can be read on Google Books), so I bought this. More about that later.

Blog search is now working again. I often use it by myself.

I still search for another rating 9 or 10 movie. Perhaps I already have found the best. Of course it's a matter of taste and if someone prefer males or females or both and what age.
I also think about improvements (other rating system, more tags) but would be lot of work where I better find another entries instead.

I think I will make a list of movies with most characters in bibs and most bib scenes (and males+females). Many films and series only have few and short scenes. Otherwise one perfect scene might be enough for someone, but the more actors and scenes the higher the chance that most will like it. But probably there are too few films and series like The Waltons.

Pünktchen und Anton (1999)


Family film, remake. Novel by Erich Kästner
-Year: 1999
-Year in film: 1990s ? 
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: girl Pünktchen ~ 11 ys 
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partyl TV recording  
-Bib occurence: low ?   
-Rating:  3/10 ?         
-Rating: ***
-Comment: Elea Geissler as Pünktchen (pictured) in blue bibs. I have watched this movie many years ago and can't remember the bib scenes. I checked it partly recently and only discovered very few and short scenes at the intro (pictured) and at the beginning (also hanging upside down, not showing her complete bibs). Not sure if any others in bibs or later scenes. I also think that there are better movies, however the plot about the friendship is good. Have to check again. Rating 3-4 for now. Starring Max Felder as Anton (won a Golden Sparrow), further Benno Fürmann and Juliane Köhler. Most clips on YouTube are about a stage play. See also the entry of the b/w 1953 version (also only rating 3 but feauring boys in Lederhosen and sailor suits as well, rating 5 on my Lederhosen blog).

Noah (1998)




 Disney TV family film starring Tony Danza
-Year: 1998
-Year in film: 1990s ? 
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Daniel ~ 13 , girl
-Available on DVD: VHS only?
-I own: no  
-Bib occurrence: medium ?   
-Rating:  6/10 ?         
-Rating: ******
-Comment: I think this is Chris Marquette in blue bibs (pictured). Also a toddler girl in pink bibs (pic below) and some men in working bibs (1 in white or beige), maybe more.

Yet another suggestion. Thanks. I have only seen the first 3rd or maybe half of this movie. First bib scene of the teen after 10 minutes (pictured both on top). Even a cycling scene, but no close-up of that. One short scene of his backside (as pictured), no view of complete frontside. Much later a scene at a fun fair (or farm exhibition) with views of front and back. The boy and his brothers are shown more often, but in other clothes, so I assume rather few or medium bib scenes. Not sure if real farm content with farm work in bibs however this is about a zoo and sort of a Noah's arc.
Typical clothing style of the 90s. One strap loose (I don't like that but could be worse). I have to check this completely but probably wouldn't buy this (if there was a DVD). I think only released on VHS. No trailers. Rating 5-6 for now.

Update: At the funfair there is also another kid about 10 or 11 yo with long dark hair (ponytail, so probably a girl), shown from behind on the left part of the screen in light blue bibs.

Mission Top Secret (1994)


Kids Adventure series, 12/48 episodes in 2 seasons
-Year: 1994
-Year in film: ~2000 
-Country: Australia, NL, NZ
-Who in bibs: girl ~ 13 , Susi ~ 11, boy
-Available on DVD: no?
-I own: no, partly TV recording  
-Bib occurrence: low ?   
-Rating:  6/10 ?         
-Rating: ******
-Comment: At least 2 girls in bibs. Pic 2 showing a girl from Centauri France in ep. 1.6 "The Flight of the Golden Goose". Sorry no better pic, I recorded too late. Also Anna Grace Reichard as Susi in ep. 2.2 "Return of the Dinosaur". Also a boy. One pic is at

I watched this series in the 1990s but can't remember the bib scenes. I saw only some parts of ep 1.6 recently. I like those series produced by Roger Mirams ("Secret Valley"). IMDB says 1994, other sources 1992 and pilot even 1991. I have to check again more episodes, couldn't find ep 1.6 on YouTube. Some farm content (in some episodes) but can't say if with bib scenes. Multinational kids, also some boys, one Asian with braces. I assume more bib scenes in ep 2.2 but rather few bib scenes in other episodes that I had partly checked. So rating 4-5 for now. I think not yet released officially on DVD, however I saw a German DVD cover. 12 movie length episodes, also aired in up to 52 shorter episodes. 

Previously rated 5 now 6.

Girls in blue, light blue and baggy brown bibs. Also a boy in white or light blue bleached pair (new upload in update 1). Was also on my shiny shorts blog, rating 5.
