-Comment: 9 or 10 yo Jackie 'Butch' Jenkins (1937-2001) (pictured, fighting, on top) in dark (maybe even black) too small bibs. Backside suspenders only. Maybe also other actors in bibs? No.

From my rare movie list. I still can't find good clips nor pics, so I use this publicity pic (taken from the excellent garydgray.tripod.com website). I don't know this movie, so I can't say much more about it. Directed by Fred Zinneman (High Noon), novel "Army Brat" by Tommy Wadelton. Probably a good and touching plot as his pregnant mom died. Usually I don't like those kind of bibs, but I like this child actor (see also other entries on both blogs). Most likeley farm/rural content.

Oroginal title "Army Brat". I think not on DVD nor VHS. No bibs in the trailer.

Rating 4 for now. Now 3.

Update: Image had been deleten even on garydgray. So I choose another source. Now completely checked and own screenshot from the movie. Also a sitting scene.

DVD release (on demand officially probably DVDr) in 2019
