The Grass Harp (1995)

 

Drama by Truman Capote
-Year: 1995
-Year in film: 1935  
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boys ~10, men 
-Available on DVD: yes 
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low+
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: In fact there's mainly one boy ~11 yo in dark blue bibs. Could be ~9 yo Adam Crosby or maybe ~12 yo Grayson Fricke (latter one is probably too old)? Also one young man and some other men. One (other) boy and man from a distance at 24 (pic 2). There's a younger kid, probably a boy (pic 1 at 1h08 on right) also on stage in a tent (close up at 58) as a Cowboy who I first think might wear bibs but I think these are just jeans and a matching shirt with a vest and chaps. The other boy also appeared in the tent walking rear view and distance side view. But the best scenes are outside starting at 1h02. Some more scenes outside but mainly distance, also rear view but partial).

Starring Edward Furlong as 16 yo (not in bibs), Walter Matthau and Sissy Spacek (not in bibs). 1951 novel/play by Truman Capote. No mentions of bibs in the book.

After checking many 80s movies (some more to come); I've started checking many 90s movies. Good 30s setting. But rather few good scenes.

Grayson Fricke also starred in The Prince of Tides (he in bibs rating 5, needs to be rechecked), A Son's Promise  (not he in bibs, rating 6) and Fried Green Tomatoes (rating 6).

Rating ~4-5.
