Spanky (1932) Our Gang



Classic comedy short film (Little Rascals)
Year: 1932
Year in film: 1930s
Country: USA
Who in bibs: Wheezer ~7, boys ~5+7+9, girl 4 ?
Available on DVD: yes
I own: no
Clothing occurrence: low+
Rating:  5/10
Rating: *****
Comment: As announced in Uncle Tom's Uncle (rating 4), this talkie prequel also has boys in bibs. And is even better. Next to Wheezer (pic 2 kneeing on the floor, also side/rear view) there are also some others. At least 2 boys sitting in the audience and 2 boys above the stage (haymow). One in faded light blue bibs the other in darker ones.

But rather few good scenes.

Rating 5-6 for this one.

One young boy in dark bibs and a black face and a straw hat is 5 yo Tommy Bond, unpictured. See update. Also another kid, maybe a young girl.
