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).

Update: Home Run for Rusty
3 more pics of this boy playing Baseball in bibs including this headshot.
Also hand in pockets and another close-up front view.
Very good, rating 8, unfortunately few scenes only.
Playing Baseball in bibs and doing sports is quite rare.
Today, I have checked many full movies. Another huge update coming soon.

The Party (2017)
Comedy film by Sally Potter
–Year: 2017
–Year in film: 2010s ?
–Country: UK
–Who in bibs: Jinny ~45 ?
–Available on DVD: not yet
–I own: no
–Bib occurence: medium- ?
–Rating: 4/10 ?
–Rating: ****
–Comment: At least one lady, I think Emily Mortimer in white or maybe beige bibs, also sitting but I think often with a jacket over. B&w movie.
They recently show a theatralic trailer on TV. But I don't know this new movie, yet.
Starring Bruno Ganz, Cherry Jones and Patricia Clarkson.
Rating 3-4 for now.

Liebe und andere Unfälle
Comedy film, romance
–Year: 2012
–Year in film: 2010s ?
–Country: Switzerland
–Who in bibs: Marie ~40
–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: no
–Bib occurence: medium- ?
–Rating: 3/10 ?
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Today on 3sat. At least Lea Hadorn in dark blue bibs and sleeveless shirt and green rubber boots. Farm and alpine setting.
Looks like a typical modern Heimatfilm and romance.
The lady is quite old.
So rating 2-3 for now only.
Update: I have seen the beginning. I don't like it as she's very thin. Bib at low position. After 10 or 15 minutes, she wore something else, so obviously fewer scenes than first assumed. And I haven't seen any other actors. Rating 3 was correct.

Huan le wu fu shing

Aka "The Incredible Kids" and “The 5 Kung-Fu Kids” which belongs to the same film series in Germany called Lucky Kids. Chinese title: 歡樂五福星.
I already mentioned it in
/2012/02/22/young-dragons-kung-fu-kids-series/
(one more pic of this there). I think no girls or women in this movie but in others of this series. But this is already one of the better ones.
Quite good and funny movie. Skating is also nice and even cooking in bibs.
Rating 5.

–Comment: Some fishermen in yellow, orange, red, green and dark blue fishing bibs and I think also a young lady, probably Diane Lane in yellow bibs (but more likely just an apron ?).
Has been aired several days ago, but I missed it almost completely.
So needs to be rechecked. But there are definitely better movies.
Starring George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg. Nominated for 2 Oscars.
Rating 2-3 for now.
Books 64: Will Fellows: Farm Boys + Wilder: Farm Boy
First "Farm Boys - Lives of Gay Men from the Rural Midwest" by Will Fellows. 322 pages.
A very interesting book telling the coming-of-age stories of some gay farm boys from the 1910s up to the mid 80s but mainly the 1960s. It includes original, small b&w photos, some few (4) showing boys in bibs and shortalls but these are not very good.
Some descriptions of wearing bibs, probably all or most wore bibs but not mentioned it. I'm currently on page 192.
Page 36: An 8 yo boy in the late 1910s was a water boy wearing bibs and a bandanna.
Page 180: A short story of a teen boy in the 1960s who was spanked and thrown bibs to him, the only thing he should wear. Also mentioning blood on his bibs.
And many other interesting plots involving brothers, neighbors and animals.
Before that, I continued reading "Farm Boy" by Laura Ingalls Wilder (Little House on the Prairie, rating 6). I think no bibs scenes in there but nice desciptions and drawings including the one-room schoolhouse of Almanzo, her later husband. In the 1870s and 80s, they mainly wore pants with suspenders (see the Western entries and blog).

It (2017)
Horror film remake. Stephen King
–Year: 2017
–Year in film: 1989
–Country: USA
–Who in bibs: Beverly ~15, other girls
–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: no
–Bib occurrence: low+
–Rating: 4/10
–Rating: ****
–Comment: Sophia Lillies as tomboy Beverly in khaki shortalls, also sitting.
After rechecking the famous 1990 movie (boys, girl, rating 5), I found some trailers of this upcoming remake.
Beverly is older than in the 1990 movie. I can't say much more, yet.
Also cycling scenes (unknown if in shortalls or bibs), nice shiny shorts scenes (at least 1 boy, in red shorts, other blog rating 6-7 for now), swimming in tighty whiteys.
For the shortalls, rating 4 for now only. I doubt, that this movie is better than the first one. At least concerning actors and bibs. Update: 2 other girls in shortalls (brief scenes at 11) and a girl in long rare bibs without bib.

Update: Canicule (1984)
I wanted to replace my tiny pics of this movie. I haven't found, yet the original pics from Felix (unfortunately he closed his blog, I think I have higher res pics on an old PC or backup), so I checked an online stream.
Sorry for the bad image quality. I don't like this actor, 16 yo but much younger looking David Bennent (The Tin Drum, Die Blechtrommel) but bibs are interesting. He's wearing a belt and also has his bib down (touching and hanging down over the belt).
/2014/02/08/list-30-open-bib-bib-down/
Also a (motor) cycling scene, I haven't noticed before. But I think, rather few scenes at the beginning and end. Main entry, still rating 5 at
/2012/07/24/canicule-1984/
Thanks db1, for submitting better pics of Eight is Enough (1977), boy rating 7. I will make another "huge" update soon. (I make separate updates, especially when there are new actors found, new facts/tags or too much (new or old) pics.

Update: Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain
I have rechecked this movie (as usual at high speed) and there are some more and even better scenes than assumed/remembered.
14 or 15 yo Christina Ricci cycling, but also soaked wet scenes (adding tag wet). But I think no or few (good) rear views.
Women in blue and khaki bibs. Most are all straps are tied and not the usual braces.
The image quality of this stream is quite bad and I haven't found the first pic, so leaving the older tiny ones.

A boy, I think it's Jason Hervey (brother Wayne in The Wonder Years) in dark blue bibs, also sitting and lifting up the pant legs before. Later inside baking, spotted with flour. Also a girl cycling but brief scene only. Not sure if maybe hickory stripes. Another older girl in a dark blue jeans dress (or skirtalls).
Aka "Night Swimmers" (jeans shorts). Also starring Jason Lively ("European Vacation") in long red hair, but not in bibs.

I found this by coincidence on YouTube but haven't checked all episodes.
Boys are very young.
So rating 2-3 for now only.
I also have found the recent unknown movie from my shiny shorts blog (Touch the Sun: Peter & Pompey) which I even have here.

Update: Power Rangers
During the replacement of the tiny pics, what I either haven't found for this series or the quality was too bad, I found these 2 new pics. I had problems finding good scenes. Either too fast movements or headshots or from a distance. Also few boys in bibs. But I already have some good pics.
Pic 1 is from a YouTube clip call Katherine's morphs. Pic 2 "unmorphed fight with help from Pre-Ranger Rocky) should be from Mighty Morphin s2e26.
I still don't know all episodes of all 19 series+movies.
Main entries f,m rating 6, best probably in Power Rangers Turbo

La baleine blanche
Documentary series, Floating school, 6 ep
–Year: 1987
–Year in film: 1980s
–Country: France, Germany
–Who in bibs: boy ~17 ?
–Available on DVD: no ?
–I own: no, partly TV recordings
–Bib occurence: very low ?
–Rating: 4/10 *
–Rating: ****
–Comment: At least one older teen boy in dark blue bibs. I recently found a short clip on one of my VHS tapes and made a screenshot, but forgot to save it, as I was busy and happy, having found one of my unknown movies. This is not on the same tape and I currently don't have the time to check all my tapes again.
The pic shown is an older pic and maybe it's the boy on the right wearing bibs. At least with a similar haircut, but maybe another, older boy, maybe from the team or a local boy. Definitely not the blonde boy on the left. First I thought, that it's from "Phares d'ouest" (rating 6), but I have checked all episodes of that online.
I only have a very brief scene with the boy in bibs walking and standing (outside the ship) and either headshot, pics of the legs or from a distance. So it's not worth much, posting a pic. He was accompanied by a younger boy kneeing on the ground but not wearing bibs.
Rating 3-4 for now for the bibs scenes, much higher for the series. Some nice scenes, similar to Phares d'ouest and Fleur de Lampaul - Jeunes marins reporters. The blonde boy also wearing purple shorts (but not shiny shorts). I assume very few bibs scenes.
I also found 2 more headshots of an Australian boy of an unknown movie on my shiny shorts blog. Can anybody help there?
I found my clip

–Comment: At least ~8 or 9 yo Mitja-Daniel Krebs ("Kidnapping Mom & Dad") as 7 yo but even younger looking Philipp in light blue shortalls.
From my rare movies list. (I still haven't seen the complete movie).
Looks like a typical divorce drama. Young boy, long hair
so rating 3 for now only.

Update: The Witches of Eastwick (1987) f,m
Previously no pics at all, I now have checked this movie. Next to Cher, there are also young boys in bibs.
The bibs of Cher aren't that bad. Sleeveless shirt and work belt and cycling scenes.
One more pic (cycling) in the main entry.
Previously rated 2 now 4. I don't like Cher nor very young boys.

Update: Forrest Gump
There's at least one other scene, I missed at the last broadcasting, but now found. 2 boys sitting in the bus in raw denim bibs. One boy is even older, probably a teen. I don't assume more scenes.
All scenes are quite short. And most boys are quite young.
Main entry, still rating 5 (although I like raw denim bibs and cycling)

I recently found this during research for my Western blog (other boys, rating 4-(6) for now). I thought, I already had this there.
This episode is currently not available online and season 5 is not on DVD. There are several pics showing him in bibs like on his official site. So pic needs to be updated later.
There are also some other boys and teen boys in this series, but I currently don't know of any others in bibs.
Rating 7 for now.
I want to announce again, that I also found my recording of the recent unknown movie/series on my sailor suit blog. Maybe it’s Five Mile Creek. New pics on my other blog. Can anybody confirm this?
