Story 8 Painting bibs

The Waltons. Episode 07.12 (Germany 13) The Boosters.
I'm watching season 7 again and I'm waiting for season 8. I found a scene, where some Walton kids helped Ike Godsey painting. I never remembered this scene. Again, is this realistic that they can afford new bibs just for painting in 1941? I have never seen these bibs on Elizabeth and Ben. Ben's bibs are a bit tight but correct size (he rarely wear bibs except in early episodes and then very small, dark blue bibs). Bibs are light blue (perhaps Elizabeth's are grey). Jim-Bob wears dark blue standard jeans (his normal clothes, not old ones). Also Ike Godsey in white bibs. Elizabeth turned 13 a few episodes before. I prefer her medium blue bibs with her red hair. Also very good scene one episode earlier in those bibs and pigtails sitting in the barn. I also discovered another girl in (non-jeans) bibs and updated entry of season 7. Image on top showing Jim-Bob and Elizabeth; image on bottom: Ike Godsey, Ben, Yancy Tucker, Elizabeth, Jim-Bob and Corabeth Godsey. Season 8 will be updated in the next days.

Field of Dreams

Kevin Costner farm/baseball movie
-Year: 1989
-Year in film: 1972
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: girl Karin 7ys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurence: low?
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Gaby Hoffmann in blue bibs (pictured). I don't know this movie and have seen only fragments. Perhaps I've seen it some years ago, but I can't remember. This is a farm film set in rural Iowa. Novel Shoeless Joe by W. P. Kinsella. Famous movie, nominated for 3 Oscars. Usually I don't like sport movies, but this is also a farm movie and I have to see it. Maybe there are even more in bibs. Big farm and field, but girl is very little and I assume few good bib scenes. For now I rate 4, possibly going up.
Edit: I now saw a part at the end, missing again most of this film. Bibs are rather light blue and girl is very young. Leave rating 4 and check again next time.

Uno sceriffo extraterrestre - poco extra e molto terrestre

Bud Spencer movie
-Year: 1979
-Year in film: 1970s
-Country: Italy
-Who in bibs: boy H7-25 7, man
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recordings
-Bib occurrence: low?
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Cary Guffey (pictured) in light blue bibs with hickory stripes. I don't like Bud Spencer films, however this is a bit different featuring an extraterrestrian child. Funny family and fighting film, but I don't like film nor this small kid in these bibs. Also at least one man in blue bibs. Filmed in the USA and with US actors. I don't remember the whole movie, so rating 3-4 for now. Film aka The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid.

Update: I recently have seen the first half. He probably wears these bibs in most or all his scenesm but often a sweater over them. The movie is very good though. Nowadays this would be rating (2-)3 for bibs scenes of this very young boy.

There's also a sequel, one year later, same actor in blue bibs. Looking much older, but maybe fewer bibs scenes? Also women in bibs. Rating 5. Post exists

What Love Sees

TV drama movie about blind parents and blind child
-Year: 1996
-Year in film: 1940-1959
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boy Hap 9 ys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recordings
-Bib occurence: low?
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Courtland Mead (pictured) in bibs. I don't remember the complete movie, but this might be a touching family drama. After real story; novel by Susan Vreeland. Also starring Richard Thomas (The Waltons). Courtland Mead did also appeared in the mini series The Shining (1997, see also that entry). I assume few or medium bib scenes and bibs are too small and the boy very young. So rating 4 for now. I have to view the whole film again. I think the bib scene is set in about 1952 and the son will also become blind (at age 7 in the novel). Book cover also pictures a boy in bibs, not sure if this are the film characters. No trailers found. As this film covered 15 years, it's possible that there are also others in bibs. Edit: First I was not sure, if the boy is blind or pretends to, or even if he is the later dad, as I first only read that this film is about a blind couple.

Story 7: Mary-Ellen makes butter

In ep. 1.05 Mary-Ellen Walton makes butter in bibs and barefeet, while reading and putting her bare feets on the table. Her mother Olivia puts her feet down. On the left is John-Boy in his light blue bibs with suspenders. I like historical farm work. But again I don't know if this is realistic (fashion and behavior) especially for this religious family of the 1930s. I think Mary-Ellen is about 15ys. The milking is the job of John-Boy. Also an outside butter scene in ep. 01.19 also reading but with shoes. In ep. 14 she lies on her bed in bibs. Aren't bibs dirty after farm work and playing?

Image at bottom shows Mary-Ellen in dress, then John-Boy in his light blue bibs, Jason (rarely without bibs in the earlier seasons) and Ben in his too small bibs (ep. 1.09). I think they were at school. In an earlier episode Mary-Ellen wants to spend her money for a baseball glove, but she bought a dress to attract her boy friend while another girl likes a dress, which is for sale at Ike Godsey's (see image in post Waltons Season 1). Mary-Ellen and her mom didn't like the dress, so she returned it.

Info 20: New post-reaction voting boxes

I have added this possibility of post reactions. Setting was well hidden.
Reactions are meant for films, but also for (one of) the actor(s) if you like. Also possible for older posts. Sorry that I haven't found this earlier. I tried a lot of settings.

Update: This feature (poll widget) is not available anymore. Was available at least from 2008- June 2016. Maybe a bit longer.

Update: In Dec 2020 (or earlier) it obviously works (again).

Mama ist unmöglich

German TV comedy series with 2 girls, 26 episodes in 3 seasons
-Year: 1997-1999
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: Melanie (Milly) ~13 (1997), Konrad 12, men
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recordings
-Bib occurrence: low
-Rating:  6/10
-Rating: ******
-Comment: Marie-Luise Schramm (pictured) sometimes in blue bibs and shortalls. This is my favourite German girls series. Also some boys as guest stars. This is the only series/film I know where Hannes Maurer (image left on left, famous voice actor, often together with Schramm) is in front of the camera. Also episodes with young Robert Stadlober (image right). Very funny and good acting of all, also the 2 mothers. Good plots. She also wears other mostly short pants and dresses. I can' t remember other actors (incl her older sister) in bibs, but I have to check this. Some episodes with many background actors. Also some other good scenes (playing basketball in shorts and wearing braces). Very good series, but for bib scenes I can't rate more than 6.

Edit: I now found also the boy Konrad (Tobias Retzlaff, 12 ys) in bibs (season 3. ep. 5, pic below (only?)). There also his "father" in jeans bibs and other men in working bibs. Still have to check this complete series again. I think image left I took from ep. 2.06, image right is from ep. 01.11 (or 01.13). Schramm looks much older in season 3 and I remember her also cycling, but I don't think in bibs. 

Update: Released in ~2018 on DVD. I obviously gave later rating 7. I have to recheck that. The A-Z list also still has 7. In end 2025 I also found her in Unser Charly, rating 6.

The Red Fury

Kid's Western about an Indian Boy and a horse
-Year: 1984
-Year in film: ~1910s?
-Country: Canada
-Who in bibs: 2-3 boys ~11 ys, man
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recording
-Bib occurence: low
-Rating:  5/10
-Rating: *****
-Comment: At least 2-3 boys in bibs (one dark blue, one light blue, pictured) and at least a man. I don't remember the complete move, but I don't like it, although farm and horse scenes (riding I think without bibs). I think only some few bib scenes at school mainly in the middle of the film. And a good fight in the mud (later with all kids). I have to see this complete film again. Novel by Joe Elliott.

Info 19: Purchases

This are my last purchases, dates, ratings and if I like them (only if there are many bib scenes, so about Rating 7). All my personal thoughts.
Not including TV recordings. Some of them are bought for other reasons.
Interesting, only about 50% are really good. Perhaps I should buy only if I'm sure.

Richie Rich's Christmas Wish

Film about a rich kid starring David Gallagher
-Year: 1998
-Year in film: 1990s?
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Richie 13, other girls and boys
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no, partly TV recording
-Bib occurrence: low
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: David Gallagher (pictured) and other kids (outside while racing with snow mobiles) in snow bibs. This is a funny children's and family film starring Gallagher (7th Heaven, see also that entry). My first entry with snow bibs. I was remembered to them by strange bibs (De Tuin and firefighter bibs). I saw this movie some years ago. But I prefer real jeans and farm bibs. Though good acting. Also written like

Ri¢hie Ri¢h's Christmas Wish. I remember also a changing scene showing his underwear, or is this a different movie? Not to be confused with other Richie Rich films starring Macauly Culkin.
Update: At least 3 boys and Michelle Trachtenberg in black or dark blue snow bibs (according publicity pic).
