Update: You've Got to Be Smart

 

I have now completely seen this movie. Several good scenes but mainly in the 1st half of the movie. I now think, that all bibs are raw denim and I considered an even higher rating than 7. I also found a high-res original, b&w lobby card. 

Pic 1 at 2 minutes showing Fritz and Mike Bantam (only the youngest Fritz is still alive, on left?). Pic 2 is a nice leapfrog scene at 28 minutes. The best scene just before it, is a boy running toward the camera incl close-up.

Pic 3 showing Jeff Bantam at 15 minutes. They are also singing. Good rear views at the beginning and very end but few and briefly, some scenes from a distance. Sitting scenes even fewer and only from a distance. No riding scenes, very few farm work (wheelbarrow, one sitting in). Boys also in pajamas sharing one bed. Life-size b&w cardboard stands of the boys.

Rating ~7-8. Not sure if I would buy it on DVD. Definitely if the image quality would be better. Main entry
