Harriet the Spy



Kids' film starring Michelle Trachtenberg
-Year: 1996
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: 2 boys ~11
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recording
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: At least 2 boys in bibs, one in beige bibs (pictured) and one in blue bibs (see video). I don't remember this movie and I have to check it the next TV broadcasting. Maybe also other in bibs, maybe also girls? I usually don't like those films with little girls. Rating 4 for now. 2 Young Artist Awards for Trachtenberg and Vanessa Lee Chester. Rated PG. Novel by Louise Fitzhugh (1964) and there is also a 2010 film Harriet the Spy: Blog Wars with other actors. I have to check this too. I don't assume much or much good bib scenes in either films.

Update: I now have completely checked this movie (at high speed).

The bibs are not beige, and not corduroy but hickory striped. One longer, mainly fast action scene at 44 minutes, later also with a different pullover (1h15, pic 2). I haven't found any other actor in bibs and assume it's the same boy and nobody else in blue bibs, but hickory striped as well (maybe the sitting scene at school, rear view, near the end). Also a sitting scene at around 47 minutes, but from a distance.

Very few good scenes. So still rating 4.
