-Comment: At least Marcus D'Amico in tight (or small) blue bibs, maybe Osh-Kosh (pictured). American-British boy, born in Germany. Scene at 56 minutes (123 min. uncut version). I think 3 older men in bibs, same scene and at at 19 min. One in beige bibs, rest in blue. Also quite good with a belt.
Taken from the dungaree movies blog (Felix rated 6). First I rated 10 (although few scene(s)) and after buying the DVD I now rate 7-8. (I wonder why he sometimes has a completely different rating. Just because of few scenes? Handsome actors, good bibs (incl. rear view), good movie makes a very high rating for me, but I have to check it. Thanks very much for this finding and the pics. But I need moving scenes on DVD.)
Generally I don't like too tight bibs. There are different DVD and Blu-ray versions and also box sets, but I decided to just buy the simple DVD. I read that the image quality is quite bad on each of them as the movie hadn't been remastered unlike the 1st one. I don't assume more bibs scenes in other movie versions or extras (please comment if there are).
Of course I know Superman movies but haven't seen them for many years and didn't expect/remember bibs scenes in there. Most scenes had been shot in 1977, others in 1979 or 1980, but I doubt that he was 15.
The image quality of this DVD is better than thought (at least for the bibs scenes).
Update: Now I give rating (7-)8 instead of 10. 3 short scenes, in fact it's one scene (interrupted by other scenes), walking like pictured and also one good rear view standing. Front view only from a distance. I don't like too tight bibs, but it's quite rare and not so bad either. It's hard to rate. Some of my 8 rating entries I like more or watch more often, but also have few /few good scenes, other 8 rating entries are maybe worse. But I like US actors and farmers, so I give rating 8.
I own the 1st German 2001 DVD, widescreen, German audio is mono, English 2.0, several subtitles. No notable extras.

I rate on the bib scenes only, so my rating is based on how many scenes in a movie, how good those scenes are, how much of the bibs you can see (from the back, etc.) and the style and fit of the bibs, and who is wearing them. The rating has very little to do with how good the movie is generally. :) This was rated a 6 by me because, although the fit of the bibs and the actor are nice and the brand is one I like, the scenes are too short.
That said... between the times that I post, I forget why I rated things. One day I will go through them all and try to adjust the ratings based on similar reasons!
Keep up the good work. I've started visiting your sailorsuit blog now too. :)
Thanks for your explanations.
Rating is a difficult thing and sometimes a gut feeling. Of course it depends mainly on the actor and style of bibs. The amount of bibs scenes is not important to me if I don't like the actor. One short but perfect scene can cause a 10 rating.
Many movies I don't know completely and I sometimes I wonder why I only gave a 6 or 7 rating. I also consider adjusting my ratings, but I also don't want too many 9 and 10 ratings. I also considered changing my rating system and rate more aspects separately like amount of scenes, but it's too late now to change all entries. Anyway, it's always a personal rating.
My sailorsuit blog is near the end. I fear I can't find much more entries and will only post occasionally.
