-Comment: Blond Johan Stattin in faded bibs with bib down (stacked up). Many scenes (he always wore them) often hands in pockets. Sometimes worn quite baggy, but after sitting (distance) they aren't baggy. He jumps into water (at 26) but I think they're not shown wet out of it. Pic 1 at 26, pic 2 at end, pic 3 at 40. 

Unpictured: another good scene, partial rear view baggy, hands in pockets (also showing hammer loop) at 1h04 also very good front view of the other chubby boy in tight jeans (with suspenders). Good scenes at ~14 also rear view inside a building but often dark lit.

Has been aired yesterday and I rather saw scene 1 by coincidence. I've seen this movie long time ago and didn't recall the bibs. I would have missed bibs when bib down like this by a very fast search. I never liked this movie, although I like the round glasses of the main character. Remakes are often poor. 

The original movie was released in 1957 (b&w, I think no bibs). There's also a 2001 mini series which is obviously the same as the 1996 movie. In 1997 there was a sequel with same actors, boy in same shirt, but obviously in regular jeans and much fewer scenes (as main character is 5 yo Rasmus, also in Lederhosen, see other blog).

Mästerdetektiven och Rasmus (1953, b&w) has little Rasmus in dark shortalls (rating 2). Handsome older boys, but not in bibs. Good but typical kids detective plot.
