Ketcham Home Movies - Western Trip 1946

ketchamhomemovies1946westerntrip ketchamhomemovies1946westerntrip2

PD documentary 58 minutes
-Year: 1946
-Year in film: 1946
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boys ~6-7 yo
-Available on DVD: no
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low
-Rating:  3/10
-Rating: ***
-Comment: One or 2 boys, maybe the same boy. One in light blue shortalls and on in full length dark blue bibs. Pic 1 also showing hunker down, I think rear view. Pic 2 standing also rear view (simple suspenders only). I only noticed this 2 very short scenes. There are also other movies from this moviemaker, but I haven't checked them.

I found this as announced by coincodence on archive.org by searching for Western movies. (There are many real Western movies, mostly b&w, but I haven't found any with overalls.)

Quite poor, but at least on color. I have found better overalls movies on archive.org, even feature films and commercial movies (try a blog search with archive).

Fort this rating 2-3. Some more infos and names there but I don't know who is who. Maybe Stuart or Walter? Also scenes in New York City 1947.

How the West Was Fun

howthewestwasfun

Family film starring the Olsen twins
-Year: 1994
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: girl ~8
-Available on DVD: yes *
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low
-Rating:  2/10
-Rating: **
-Comment: Either Mary-Kare or Ashley Olsen, 8 or 9 yo as Suzy or Jessica in a rare crossing of a dress and overalls/skirtalls. At least with real straps and braces. One or few scenes at about 32 minutes. Completely on YouTube. Also both wearing cowboy hats and many other clothes including jeans and dresses.

Nice Wild West and ranch plot. I found it by coincidence/during research for Western movies.

Maybe other (supporting) actors, maybe men in bibs as well? Probably not.

Typical movie of it's kind. There are better movies both showing in real bibs and/or shortalls. There is a  DVD release but OOP.

Rating 2-3 as they are no real bibs.

Story 75: Wrestling in bibs - Home Improvement



As announced finally this "story" entry.

Brad and Randy are wrestling. Jonathan Taylor Thomas wearing his light blue bibs lying on the couch and he still can breathe.Unfortunately his bibs can't be seen really. It's a very good idea to wrestle but would be better if both wearing overalls. I want to change with Brad.

His bibs can be seen on pic 2. The same pair he combined with a yellow shirt, but I think he wears at least one other darker pair and maybe other ones in season 1 (smaller) and 3.

Pic 3 below is also a very interesting fighting burger scene involving all 3 brothers and dad. One more (even better pic "lap") of this scenes of episode 17 in the updated season 2 entry. And also one more scene of Lisa or another woman in (blue) shortalls. Sorry, no pics of the beige shortalls.

Season 2 is now over and I have to recheck some few earlier episodes and probably will make an entry of season 3. (JTT again wearing light blue bibs and a yellow shirt).

 /2014/07/21/home-improvement-season-2/
/2011/01/05/home-improvement/

and some more separate entries linked there. For this scenes rating 6-7.

One more wrestling scene in season 3 (on the floor all against dad). But again nothing much to see.

-Year in film: 2000s
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: Ina ~33, Caro ~9
-Available on DVD: no
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium
-Rating:  6/10
-Rating: ******
-Comment: Catherine H. Flemming and her movie daughter, probably Henriette Confurius in blue bibs.

Had been aired today (also completely on YouTube). Sorry, Home Improvement coming next.

The young lady in good raw denim bibs with a belt and one strap loose, fixing it and climbing up a ladder (scene at 18 minutes). 3 button bibs for working purposes. Sleeveless shirts, black, later also sleeveless white and a green shirt with sleeves. At least 3 or 4 scenes but mainly headshots.I only noticed one brief scene of the girl wearing bibs at 1h02. Walking out of the house. Bibs full length, medium blue.

Typical German romance/comedy film. Also starring Lisa Fitz. Novel by Gaby Hauptmann. Obviously not yet on DVD.

Rating 6-7, but I woulnd't buy it either.

Rolling Kansas

rollingkansas rollingkansas2

Comedy film
-Year: 2003
-Year in film: 1964, earlier
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: woman ~20, boy ~10 ?
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: A young lady in a stripping/undressing scene and a boy in a very brief flashback farm prize scene (probably much earlier than the 60s, maybe 30s). Both scenes after at about a third of the movie.

Before making the Home Improvement story entry (another good two episodes today, starting season 3) this entry showing a woman and a boy, so maybe of interest for everybody. I don't know their names.

From the missing Felix list and I have checked many parts of this movie. Unfortunately very few good bibs scenes. Rated R.

Quite good plot and even farm setting but I can't rate any higher than 3-4 for this short scenes.

There are better comedy movies (and of course bibs films) of this kind.

What else to say about this movie? Funny hat and glasses of the boy. Nice lambs.

Book 35: Tony Earley: Jim the Boy

Lots of overalls scenes and I wonder why I haven't found it earlier. A 10 yo farm boy in 1930 North Carolina. Completetly read.

Quite good plot. One complete chapter, where Jim first worked in the field (his dad died in a cotton field). Somehow I expected a bit more and hoped that the boy would getting older throughout the book.

He lives with his mom and her 3 brothers on a farm. New school, new friend, friend becomes ill and visiting his granddad on trail for his dad.

As told many quite good bibs scenes (some more involving men).

Good scenes (page for German hardcover book, seems well translated)

 

-at the beginning farm work, smelling his sweat through the overalls, hard work, too hard for him

- p 45 grapped by the straps

-p 62 being ashemed of bibs

-p 76 school, bibs of others

- p102 climbing up a greasy pole in bibs !, Competition

-p 111 uncle cleaning bibs of Jim

-p 112 bib pocket

-p 134 finger in uncle's bibs hammer loop

-p 169 bibs on laundry line

-p 200 cold wind from below through bib legs

 

Also another update of Home Improvement (story entry + pic coming very soon)

And new stats pics. B-TVs Tom Sawyer even higher and 7th Heaven s3.

Tom Sawyer Project Bay Trail 2013



School project
-Year: 2013
-Year in film: 1850s
-Country: USA ?
-Who in bibs: Tom ~12 ?
-Available on DVD: no
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: medium
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: A chubby boy with a straw hat in light blue cuffed up bibs. Probably an US school project, unknown school and state.

Although I have some other things to post, this one first. Yesterday, after creating an entry on my bedroom blog about a rare 1981 Soviet Tom Sawyer version I found this by coincidence on YouTube. There are probably many Tom Sawyer school projects (also see my famous B-TV's Tom Sawyer in the TOP 5), and there's a lot to check out.

This one seems quite interesting, but not the best one. But worth for posting. Rating 5.


Also further quite good scenes of JTT and a woman in Home Improvement, brief updates, pics coming soon.

Today my thought are with the Dutch.

My Teacher's Wife



Romance starring Jason London
-Year: 1999
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Vicky ~32
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Tia Carrere in worn stone washed bibs. Not bad, but I think few or very few scenes including this sitting scene at 55 minutes. Also one strap down. And also rear view but I have missed those scenes, probably earlier before the middle of the movie.

And yet another one from the "chicks list".

Completetly on YouTube, rated R.

What elso to say about this independent movie? I think a typical romance and comedy film. I have only checked it at high speed. Not sure if real farm scenes. Looks quite rural.

Also showing high scool scenes, but I haven't noticed any others in bibs.

Rating 5-6 for now due to few scenes but I have to recheck it. I prefer younger actors but bibs are very good.

Big Wheels and Sailor

bigwheelsandsailor

Family film (CFF)
-Year: 1979
-Year in film: 1970s
-Country: UK
-Who in bibs: girl ~15
-Available on DVD: yes ?
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: medium ?
-Rating:  4/10 ?
-Rating: ****
-Comment: At least this teen girl (maybe Victoria Gibson or Sally Hall ?) about 14 or 15 in hickory striped I think rather tight bibs.

Although I have found many new movies I want to continue my others from the missing list. This one is from the "missing Felix list". (Unfortunately most of the others from him showing very young girl in very brief scenes, about rating 2, but I will add them as well from time to time.)

There is a short clip on YouTube and probably this is available on DVD-R.

I can't say much more. I don't like the plot about British truckers, and I don't like tight hickory striped bibs. But could be worse.

Typical British family film of it's kind and time. 55 minutes.

Rating 4-5 for now. See also my CFF/CFTF list (mostly younger girls)

Book 34: Several f/m - western comics

westernroundup9-champion

Fist to the pic. I still like Westerns and have checked many western movies, books and comics. I finally found some few good books and even 2 comics. I also found a few movies for each of my blogs (coming soon).

The pic showing some scenes from the 1955 PD Western Roundup Comics #9 available on archive.org. There are even riding scenes.

https://archive.org/details/WesternRoundupComics91955

Another interesting thing is the German 50s youth magazine "Pete" #211 "Ich pfeif' dir eins" showing a teen boy or young man in yellow bibs sitting on a wooden fence on the cover. As that is expensive and I think just text only and I don't like that pic much, I won't buy that.

Another Western magazine depicting probably a woman chopping woods in bibs is "Western Roman" #103 (Super Western) "Das Land ist weit..." by O.W. Hilling. Maybe taken from an unknown movie. Can anybody help? Please comment if you have problems finding the pics.

Some other books I found during research the last weeks are

-Rainer M. Schröder: Kalifornisches Abenteuer (older teen girl Petra in yellow bibs)

-Berte Bratt: Nina, So gefällst Du mir (teen girl, blue bibs)

-Susan Clymer: Ein Ziegenkind braucht ein Zuhause (teen girl ,blue bibs)

-Jenny Oldfield: Home Farm Twins (see TV series entry)

-Barbara Robinson: The Best School Year Ever (teen girl, blue bibs)

I bought a good novel and found another good book series with many bibs scenes (farm boys). I will write about that soon.

 

Fist notable and very good sitting scenes in today's season 2 of Home Improvement (JTT). I think I have to make an updated, detailed entry or list entry of this.

Nés en 68



French drama
-Year: 2008
-Year in film: 1960s, later
-Country: France
-Who in bibs: Carolin ~20, girl ~13, boy ~8, man
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: Kate Moran (pic 2) shirtless in stone washed bibs. And a (teen ?) girl and a young boy in bibs and pink rubber boots). I don't know their names. Also a man in bibs and also a lady in shortalls.

I found a pic by coincidence during research for a German movie. Completetly on archive.org, but I doubt that this is a free movie.

The young lady holding 2 dead hunted rabbits (she will cook them). Countryside but brief scene at 52 minutes  (also partial side view but bibs unfortunately not fully shown and no rear view). I haven't checked everything. maybe I missed some scenes? Probably set later in the 1980s or 1990s? Movie is set between 1968 and the 2000s.

The kid's scene is also very short and is at 1h10. Probably a flashback scene set in 1968 or the 70s.

English title "Born in 68". I recently have seen two similar German movies. I don't like the 70s. Quite interesting setting. I like France and rural settings.

Obviously brief scenes, but I have to recheck this as well.

Rating 4-5 for now.

Info 290: Webfinds

farmstorywithjerryappsfarmstorywithjerryapps2

3 vintage farm pics. 2 pics inside a video, also containing a girl (?) and one other good pic.

Pics above showing pics from "A Farm Story With Jerry Apps". He also wrote some interesting books set in 1930s and 1940s Wisconsin.

Looks like a girl in the 2nd pic 4th from left, front row. Not sure if that are overalls or just a shadow? Short clip (but I think only one more pic of interest)

http://www.kpbs.org/news/2013/aug/13/farm-story-jerry-apps/

One other very good pic (1930s boys with longer hair at)

http://menofages.tumblr.com/post/85700712519/loverofbeauty-brothers-in-from-a-hard-days-work

 

Interesting vintage blog. But 99% clothed men, some sailors, very few kids (most loc.gov pics I already have) .

I recently bought a very interesting book (1930 farm boy with lots of bibs scenes), but I have to read a bit more. Another book entry (f/m) coming soon.

Story 75: Raggedy Andy - Home Improvement f/m



A minor update of Home Improvement (currently running as announced on RTL Nitro).

First Brad (Zachery Ty Bryan) as Raggedy Andy in s2e06. This Halloween costume consists of rather short pants and attached bib. Most other Raggedy Andy costumes are just pants with suspenders and without a bib. I don't like this non-jeans "bibs" but maybe it's worth for checking out others in this costume. I haven't heard of Andy and Raggedy Ann before, mabye unknown in Germany. Rear view shown but simple suspenders only. Also sitting scenes but bad view, mainly headshots.

2nd pic showing I think Lisa (Pamela Anderson !) in light blue bibs in s2e05. Probably not Irene in the main entry. She (or a similar presentation chick of Tim) also wears beige shortalls sitting on a table, I think in the same episode. Sorry, I haven't recorded it.

My favourite comedy series and one of the best (non-bibs) series (also containing bibs and cute 3 brothers).

I think a chick in s2e07 in dark blue non-jeans bibs sitting in the audience (but headshot only and it could just be a dress.)

I have seen it before and will recheck the next episodes with JTT. Very good episodes (and maybe more entries) coming soon. Main entry and separate entries rating 6 at

Flipped (2010)

Drama starring Madeline Carroll
-Year: 2010
-Year in film: 1957
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Juli ~14
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: very low
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: I think 13 or 14 Madeleine Carroll in shorter dark blue bibs.

And another suggestion.

I have checked most of this movie. Not bad. But I only noticed this gardening scene with granddad at about 44 minutes and one very brief scene from a distance at 32 minutes (also brief rear view). (There's another gardening scene but she wears something else then).

Directed by Rob Reiner and even similar like The Magic of Belle Isle (rating 5).

Movie is quite good. Interesting setting in 1957. Lots of other kids, school scenes and also farm content. But obviously no other bibs scenes.

Rating 4.

Aka "Ciao, Professore!" and rated R.

I haven't checked the complete movie yet, but this seems very interesting. I like chubby boys.

One boy also starred in

-Who in bibs: Donna ~58
-Available on DVD: yes

-Rating: ****
-Comment: At least Meryl streep (looking much younger)  in shorter dark blue bibs. Sometimes wearing a beige tool belt (some more pics on IMDb).

From the chicks list.

I don't know/don't remember this movie and can't say much more about it.

I'm not sure about the amount of bibs scenes but there are severel different pics of her. Obviousyl dancing, gliding down a stair rail, jumping, etc.

I will check it the next broadcasting. I prefer younger actors, but could be worse. At least good music.

Rating 4-5 for now.

Update: I have seen some very few parts near the beginning. The bibs don't have rear pockets. (Almost) raw denim but not tagging these simple bibs as such.

Walter & Emily



Sitcom starring Brian Keith, 1 3 episodes
-Year: 1991-1992
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Zach ~11
-Available on DVD: no
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: At least Matthew Lawrence as grandson Zach in black bibs (probably baggy). Sorry no better pics. For two watermarked pics see the comment on

/2014/06/27/tri-dnya-s-pridurkom/

Thanks very much for this suggestion! I haven't found any clips with him in bibs and don't want to use watermarked pics. So I used this capture from a YouTube preview clip to at least show him in this series. 10 or 11 yo in season 1 and only in few episodes.

I like him and his brothers (see also other entries, mainly showing Andy). There are lots of pics and some fansites of the Lawrence brothers also showing all of them mainly in blue bibs. Typical 90s fashion.

Although I like him, I can't rate any higher than 6 unless I have seen some good close up pics (like rear view or sitting scenes) or even moving images. Obviously few (good scenes),

So rating 5-6 for now. I don't like black bibs and short lived non-available series. Somehow it looks familiar. Maybe I have seen it or even have some parts on VHS? But please don't ask. I definitely don't have it complete. If there's something probably nothing showing bibs, otherwise I would have already found it. We can only hope for a DVD release or clips on the web.

Update: Thanks db1 for ponting out a YouTube clip with black and tan bibs (ep 10). Both pics are from the intro. Another short scene of the tan bibs in that episode.

Also very good bedroom scenes.

Update: Home Farm Twins

homefarmtwinss2e10

The British twin girls now confirmed in nice shortalls. I recently found a book showing a photo of them in shortalls.

I wasn't sure if they wear shortalls as I previously just had a headshot. 3 episodes are on YouTube. Pic is from s2e10. So both around 11 yo in season 2 and around 15 or 16 in season 5.

I can't say anything about the other missing episodes as this series is very rare. Maybe there are more actors/actresses in bibs/shortalls as well.

Obviously a typical but good British children's series. Generally I don't like shortalls but looking nice on them. Nice sitting scenes. They also wear other clothes.

Main entry (still rating 6 at)

Ci hai rotto papà



Family film
-Year: 1993
-Year in film: 1990s?
-Country: Italy
-Who in bibs: girl ~11, boys ~ 7, 11
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: medium ?
-Rating:  5/10 ?
-Rating: *****
-Comment: I think at least a girl and two boys in bibs. First pic and most scenes at about 15 minutes. Pic 2 near the end showing an older boy. Cycling scenes but probably none (good) in bibs.

Quite interesting comedy movie of a children's gang set in Rome. I haven't seen it at slow speed. (Completetly on YouTube). Medium or fewer bibs scenes. Also speedo scenes of a chubby boy in the middle of the movie. There are 2 different length versions 96 and 126 minutes (TV broadcasting).

The boy in pic 2 is quite good. But I have to recheck it. Good Rear view? Bibs appear quite baggy.

Rating 4-5 rather 5.

Please also note my story entry earlier this day.

Story 74: On shoulders in bibs (Update: Die Schokoladenkönigin)

schokoladenkoenigin2

Had recently been rebroadcasted (available online at ard mediathek, however in bad quality (depending on web speed?)

9yo Roxanne Borski in light blue bibs (look baggy) and pigtails. Probably better than thought (rating 4+) and maybe more bibs scenes than assumed.

I still haven't seen the complete movie. Scene directly at the beginning. Very good idea to sit on someone's shoulders in bibs.

Main entry at

/2012/03/15/die-schokoladenkonigin/

Someone (on my old blog) asked where to find "Take Me Home Again" aka The Lies Boys Tell. (teen girl rating 5+). After exactly 3 years it obviously had been removed from YouTube. I can tell later my source (I have that on a data backup, screencaps, not the complete movie). Update: Yes it was completetly on YouTube under The Lies boys tell part x.

Aka titles are often a problem and often I don't know if I already have an entry.

"Police Assassins" I have under the original title "huang jia shi jie" and "The Lies Boys Tell" I would have searched again but already have it. So internal part 4 of the chicks list now also complete. Some movies from part 3 still missing are

jackie brown (Pam Grier
jackie chan's first strike (Police story 4?
jaws the revenge
lethal weapon
life's litte struggles
mama mia (streep
