-Comment: At least a boy in beige bibs, a young girl with pigtails in light blue bibs, some men in bibs and a woman in a blue apron, bibs or similar (pic 3 below). The family has in total 9 kids. Huge family and the table looks like The Waltons.

Looks quite interesting, set during and after WWI but I have to check this completetly. Typical (good) French movie.There are many similar movies with rural setting and kids during or after the wars (like the Pagnol movies, even with a similar title, see also my other blogs).

Directed by Jacques Renard, starring Roger Dumas, Fanny Cottencon and Bernard Le Coq.

Rating 6-7 for now. Probably not bad, but I prefer blue bibs and US movies.

Update: Completely checked. As assumed, most bibs appear to be aprons (woman, older girl 2 different aprons, younger girl dress, boys blue aprons). Only the dad and the older boy in beige bibs are real bibs. So much fewer scenes than first assumed. Update soon, also on my bedroom blog (rating ~7). Also shirtless scenes of a chubby and another boy. Great movie. For bibs, rating 6-7 was correct.
