This is my personal blog / database about Bib overalls in feature films and TV series. It's my first blog. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was created in 2011. From 2012-2020 on Wordpress.com and now I'm back. Many links are wrong but exist (blog search).

Story 78: Underwater in overalls and farm work
As announced the movie "Men of Honor" (2000) starring Robert De Niro had been aired 2 days ago.
At the beginning, which is set in 1943 Kentucky there is a black boy around 10 yo in blue bibs. A short running scene which isn't bad. Then jumping into the water with an underwater scene. Also one other view (headshot with straps only) under water which isn't much better.
A bit later also real hard farm work like I've read and imagined in many recent novels. Also 2 old men in bibs.
The rest of the movie is set in 1966 and showing some sailors in sailor suits (a story entry soon on my other blog).
Wet bibs are great but underwater scenes are also interesting. At least one other movie with such scene

Underwater scenes are often short and often do not provide good views. I have to check for other movies.
Rating 3-4 for this movie. Probably no need for another entry for this movie.
Update: Thanks for "Bermuda Triangle (1996)", rating 5 with an underwater scene (probably Lisa Jakub). Is she shown in these shortalls under water?
There might be some more movies involving swimming or standing (partly) in the water. See that tag wet.

I also like underwater scenes but they are definitely few and far between!. "Flucht aus Atlantis" has a good scene, but I can't remember any more at the moment. Thanks for the good work, Dale
