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).

En las estrellas
Drama
–Year: 2018
–Year in film: 2010s ?
–Country: Spain
–Who in bibs: Ingmar 8
–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: medium+ ?
–Rating: 5/10 ?
–Rating: *****
–Comment: 8 yo Jorge Andreu as 9 yo son (but older looking) in tan bibs. I think jeans fabric. Obviously modern setting.
Thanks very much for this suggestion! I have only checked some parts of the complete movie. Obviously several scenes (but not in the beginning third/fourth or half).
Pics at 53 minutes, running away after pulling down the pants of the boy.
Weird movie, quite interesting, but I prefer blue bibs and farm setting.
Rating ~5-6 for now (needs to be rechecked completely).

Update: North (1994)
And another update and 2 better pics. Now also of 9 yo (but younger looking) Scarlett Johannson sitting in pink shortalls (also running). But all scenes are very short.
Later, I found a pic on IMDb of Scarlett Johannson sitting at a table in blue bibs or similar (most likely shortalls as well). But I haven't noticed this by checking the move at high speed. Probably very brief scene as well like almost all of the movie.

–Who in bibs: Mickey ~6, Leonard ~6 ?

So rating ~3-4 only.

Vi på Saltkråkan (2015 stage play)
Stage play Göteborg
–Year: 2015 ?
–Year in film: 1960s ?
–Country: Sweden
–Who in bibs: girl Tjorven 10 ?
–Available on DVD: no ?
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: often ?
–Rating: 3/10 ?
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Filippa Sjövall Fagerberg in plain, dark blue bibs and blue checkered ones, both obviously non-jeans fabric. Also sitting. Not sure about the amount of scenes and about her age. Should be 10 but looking much older.
After updating the 1964 movie/series, rating 1 (bottom #1), I found this by coincidence. The series itself is not bad but the girl is chubby and annoying. Unlike in this stage play.
Some clips and several pics online. Maybe there are also other stage plays?
2 new pics on the movie post

Update: THW-Jugend Aktiv
I have briefly checked all 8 clips of this documentary. Also one brief wet scene in episode 1 (boy), some older boys and girls in grey bibs without jackets in episode 7.
Unpictured: Kneeing on the grass without jacket in episode 8 and also with open jackets showing the thick belts and buckles. Bibs hanging on a clothesline in episode 1.
Main entry, still rating 6
/2019/01/11/thw-jugend-aktiv/
Update: Loenatik – De moevie
3 more and better pics of this one. Next to the farm boy also the fat lady in bibs.
Not bad, but I think only one longer scene at 55 minutes. Pant legs in rubber boots.
Main entry, with one older and one new pic, still rating 4

Update: In the Doghouse (1998)
And another update. Rare movie is completely on YouTube (Russian title "В конуре (1998)").
Next to the unknown boy running in bibs (brief scene at 48 minutes), there are also 2 brief scenes of Britt McKillip. Pic 1 a sitting scene in long bibs, also side view, from a distance (at ~46 minutes). Pic 2 in a bibs-like, buttoned jeans dress or similar at 19 minutes.
Nice movie starring Trevor Morgan. Jeans and short hair.
For the brief bibs scenes, rating (4)-5. The girl ~ rating 3.

Update: Kinderen voor Kinderen 39 (boy + girls)
By checking some of my oldest entries (Kinderen voor Kinderen main page), I have rechecked the recent episode. And even finally a boy (Koert-Jan, in glasses). But with his curly hair, these glasses and the ripped, female, long bibs (simple straps till the butt), he rather looks like a girl. And I first thought, he is.
There are also some more girls in skirtalls (2 or 3 x blue, 1x white).
Pics 1+3 from the clip/song "Kom erbij!" (rather few good scenes, often from a distance), also on an escalator. Pic 2 from the "Live in concert" clip also showing one of the girls. I only found few songs. Maybe some more or even better scenes. But probably nothing much more of interest and probably no more boys.
Main post, rating 3, one other pic/girl, and main overview post f,m, rating up to 8

Update: Lloyd (2001)
And yet another update. The image quality of this YouTube clip (in Castellano) is not perfect but much better than my previous pics. Some more girls in bibs, but almost all in shortalls. Perfect slow dancing at the beginning (also at the end but not in bibs). Handsome boys but not in bibs either. Great movie. Also soon on my bedroom and Western blogs.
Main entry, still rating 7 with one updated main pic

Der sichere Weg durch den JF Dienst
Private documentary, junior firefighters
–Year: 2016
–Year in film: 2010s
–Country: Germany
–Who in bibs: boys ~11-15?
–Available on DVD: no
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: very often
–Rating: 3/10
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Some boys (junior firefighters) practising. Also one older boy cycling. Not sure if bibs or pants due to the jackets.
I found this short, awarded clip on YouTube. Feuerwehr Menden (Germany). Cycling firefighters are very rare. But few boys.
Rating ~2-3.
Few other clips, but I think none with junior firefighters. Some pics on the web. But not much of interest, at least I haven't found any. And very few girls.

Update: Do Not Disturb (1999)
Another movie completely rechecked and two new and much better pics uploaded.
Previously rated 4, now 5-(6). Rather few, but good scenes near the beginning. Quite thin fabric. Luckily the jacket is open. Nice walking scenes including walking downstairs.

Update: The Ghost of Cypress Swamp
Two more pics of Jeff East. Interesting movie with nice 1910s/western-like adventure setting. But I haven't found clips in better image quality. Maybe there aren't any (much better ones) of this 1977 Disney TV movie, I think just available on VHS. And still on YouTube.
Bu he's quite old anyway.
Main entry, still rating 4

Update: The Adventures of Ociee Nash
Some more and better pics of this one taken from some other trailers and clips. Previously just a headshot in poor quality (bibs appeared too light). Confirmed full length bibs, different colored straps. Also sitting scenes and men in bibs, too. Nice dark bibs but probably not raw denim. Very early 1890s setting. I don't know of any boys in bibs, yet.
One more pic in the main entry, still rating 6.
/2011/05/24/the-adventures-of-ociee-nash/
Still needs to be checked completely. Also soon on my pigtails blog.

Update 2: The Dinosaur Hunter
I now have rechecked the complete movie (at high speed). There are many good scenes, so it needs for more posts and I have to recheck it at slow speed. I have added my favourite scenes (of Bill Switzer), I didn't remember some scenes, like lying on the ground, near the end (pic 1). Even more scenes in raw denim bibs.
Perfect, but rather brief rear (and front) view of the raw denim bibs while walking and also standing with hands in pockets in hickory striped ones, (pic 2+3 both in the 1st third). Also a milking scene and a hay scene of Alison Pill, always in the same faded, oversized bibs).
Pic 4, the riding scene in the 2nd third. Also previously both on one horse (Bill in hickory stripes sitting on front). Pic 5 is a short mud fight in the last 3rd. Also more wet scenes of both in heavy rain (Bill in raw denim) but dark lit. At least one other girl in the first half.

Iowa's One-room Schoolhouses
IPTV documentary, 1h
–Year: 2006 ?
–Year in film: 1930s, 40s ?
–Country: USA
–Who in bibs: boys ~6-14 ?
–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: no
–Bib occurrence: medium+ ?
–Rating: 5/10 ?
–Rating: *****
–Comment: I only found a 3 minute clip called "Teaching in an Iowa One-room Schoolhouse" on YouTube showing this older boy in bibs (pic 2, no better views) and a younger boy in bibs, sitting from a distance (side view). Also b&w photos younger and older boys, one blonde boy in hickory stripes.
I don't know the complete documentary which is 1 hour. I found a 1979 clip with another boy in color, but probably from a different documentary. An earlier upload of the clip pictured was probably from 2006. The DVD from 2009? Regional Emmy Award.
Can't say much more. DVD should be available, but I couldn't find it on IPTV nor PBS shop. OOP?
Rating around 3-4 for the preview clip but probably (much) higher. There's another clip called "Consolidation Brings the End to Iowa's One-room Schoolhouses" (no notable scenes in the preview). The icon on YouTube showing barefooted boys running out of the school (color scene, pic 1), but the icons are not in the clips (but available in high res on Google Images). So at least 4 boys in bibs in the color scenes (probably not much more there, as the room is quite small, but probably 6-8). Bird's eye view of the class showing the icon of clip 1. Two blonde boys in checkered shirts might be brothers.
Rating ~5-6.

–Country: USA

–Comment: And another Our Gang movie. Leonard Landy standing and sitting (at the end) in faded bibs with overlapping straps. Rather few scenes.
I have better movies with him, where he's older, also colorized. Nice ghost plot, though.
So rating 3-4 only (but one of the better rating 3 ones). The last Hal Roach Studio film and the 2nd with Landy. Unlike most others of the cast, he died late in 2017 but only did movies until 1941.

–Available on DVD: no ?
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: low+ ?
–Rating: 3/10 ?
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Another suggestion. Thanks very much! Young man and should be other men and/or older teen boys and young ladies in bibs.
Artyom Semakin (Артём Семакин) as computer genius Gena (Гена), pic 1 from ep 3, pic 3 from ep 6 sitting with both straps down. Pic 2 showing a lady in a turqouise bibs-like dress or shortalls or similar, maybe Victoria Aizentir (Виктория Айзентир) as Vika in ep 15, also dancing.
I have briefly checked more than 10 episodes but only found rather few scenes and noone else in bibs.
Russian title: FM и ребята, what means FM and Guys.
The boy is too old and not handsome (later also in shorter hair but maybe not in bibs anymore?). No real bibs of the lady.
So for now rating 2-3 only. Please comment if there are better scenes/actors in other episodes.

–Comment: At least this dark haired lady, I think it's Kate Capshaw (both Capshaw and Lucinda Jenney were also blonde, about the same age and looking similar) in faded bibs and sleeveless shirt. Few scenes only. Garden work.
Not bad.
So rating 4-5.
Also handsome boys in shorts (but I think not shiny).
She also starred in "Missing Children: A Mother's Story" with at least a boy in bibs (coming soon).

Update: The Dinosaur Hunter
During the search for my Antaeus DVDr, I found my full TV recording of The Dinosaur Hunter (rating 10 as well). I copied it to my new computer but missed one file (last half or third). Some few better pics.
Very good are the raw denim bibs (also hands in pockets), but he mainly wore the hickory striped ones, also shirtless (pics 2+3).
I have to recheck this once more. I remember a very good scene inside and one riding pic and wet scenes.
Main entry

THW-Jugend Aktiv
Documentary series, community TV
–Year: 1996
–Year in film: 1990s
–Country: Germany
–Who in bibs: boys, girls ~10-15?
–Available on DVD: no
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: always
–Rating: 6/10 ?
–Rating: ******
–Comment: Some boys, mainly around 10 yo and I think girls in mainly light grey, sturdy cotton or jeans bibs. Some few in medium blue ones.
By coincidence, I found this one on YouTube. It's a series of at least 8 clips, which had been aired on local/community TV (Offener Kanal Wesermündung (Bremerhaven)). Pic is from ep 3 called "THW-Jugend Nordenham 1996 - AKTIV 3 Abseilen" by Michael Funke. Also one blonde boy sitting inside at the end. I only have checked the other episodes briefly, yet.
I like the grey bibs. Nowadays, the folks at THW (Technisches Hilfswerk, Federal Agency for Technical Relief) wear the same blue bibs or pants like the firefighters (modern fabric). And pics and even vids of the grey bibs are rare.
Image quality is often quite poor (simple analog camera?). And most kids are not very handsome. But some good scenes like the block and tackle.
So rating ~6-(7) for now. Update: 2 more pics, also a wet scene and scenes without jackets.

–Available on DVD: no ?
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: low- ?
–Rating: 3/10 ?
–Rating: ***
–Comment: Transgender boy Max, played by Callum Booth-Ford (pics 2+4) in light blue shortalls dressed like a girl (and also another pants with straps or bibs?), his older film sister, played by Millie Gibson in dark blue bibs (or shortalls, pic 1) and I think Anna Friel in bordeaux red and dark blue bibs (or shortalls) and also a grey apron or dress. Rather few bibs scenes.
Pic 1 from s1e1, pic 2 from s1e4, pic 3 from the trailer (s1e1 ?), pic 4 is a retouched pic from a review clip.
There should be 3 episodes only, but I found 4. And I haven't found Max in shortalls in any of them. And there might be a 2nd season later?
Interesting plot. But for the few scenes rating ~3 for now only.
