-Year in film: 2000s
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: boy Willy 15 ys, girl Melanie 14ys

-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Vincent Radetzky (image left) shirtless in blue bibs and a girl in light blue shortalls (I don't know her name, it's not the main character Sprotte, I think Paula Riemann, image right). This is a trilogy by Cornelia Funke (Inkworld) about a girls' gang vs. boys' gang, similar to Australian series The Sleepover Club. I saw this film some time ago and have only some parts left. But I assume few bib scenes. One or two teen boys at a school play only (left Willy played a donkey). First film Die Wilden Hühner (2006, same actors) I remember only a man in non-jeans bibs and in the 3rd film Die Wilden Hühner und das Leben (2009) which I saw completely I saw only a girl in dark blue shortalls at the beginning. I don't like these films where girls win over boys. Few bib scenes. Some funny and some touching scenes and some pranks. Film aka Wild Chicks in Love. 3rd films at a school trip and ending with a younger chicklets' gang. Unusual bibs of Germany in the late 2000s.

Story 9: Erin buys bibs - Waltons season 8

 

The Waltons Season 8 Ep. 14 The Fastidious Wife

First teen in bibs in this season and except the toddler John-Curtis first Walton in bibs. Erin Walton ~18 ys (image top on left with Cindy, wife of Ben) buys dark denim bibs for gardening although they are not feminine she said. Shop owner Ike Godsey (image bottom on left) showed her a pile of bibs on a table. She dressed on a pair of bibs over her pants, showed herself by turning around and paid for them. She said, that she hopes, that they wouldn't loose the war because she wears bibs. Corabeth Godsey (image bottom middle) sells books titled The Fastidious Wife that the husband soldiers can be proud of their wifes (without bibs). Erin leaves bibs on for going home and Corabeth said, that she shouldn't take the main roads (so that nobody can see her in bibs). 

Edit: Later more scenes with Erin and Cindy in bibs. See also Waltons season 8 main entry.

Hände weg von Mississippi

German farm children's film
-Year: 2007
-Year in film: 2000s
-Country: Germany
-Who in bibs: boy Leo ~10 ys, girl Emma 10 ys, men, woman
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes, TV recording
-Bib occurence: often
-Rating:  2/10
-Rating: **
-Comment: Karl Alexander Seidel in dark blue non jeans bibs (image left), Zoë Mannhardt in skirt shortalls skirtalls (image right), a young man shirtless in bibs and an older woman in brown skirt shortalls. Novel by Cornelia Funke (Inkworld). This is a funny family film with weird characters and some funny plots like painting a horse (called Mississippi). I don't like either film nor bibs. German farms are different than American farms but I think that there are better films. A good and more realistic German farm series is "Die Kinder vom Alstertal" (see that entry). I think produced in 2006. Also a swimming scene but I don't like this either.

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre

Western starring Humphrey Bogart
-Year: 1948
-Year in film: 1925
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: boy 15
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low
-Rating:  3/10
-Rating: ***
-Comment: Robert Blake as unnamed Mexican Boy (pictured). This is a famous film starring Humphrey Bogart, novel by B. Traven. 3 oscars. I don't remember this complete film. I don't like those b/w Westerns. I found few bib scenes and a short scene either (perhaps there are more?) Dark bibs are too short and heavy worn. Film aka Treasure of Sierra Madre.

Update: Now I have seen this movie completely (at high speed). I noticed only 2 short scenes with this teen boy and one good scene of men in bibs (one dark, maybe raw denim, one in light blue bibs). I don't like this film.

Rating 2-3.

Trading Mom

Family movie starry Anna Chlumsky and Sissy Spacek
-Year: 1994
-Year in film: 1990s?
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Harry ~7, Elizabeth ~13, woman
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  3/10 ?
-Rating: ***
-Comment: A young boy in bibs, I think this must be Asher Metchik (pictured). I also don't remember this complete movie. I think this is probably a funny family movie. But a typical film of the 90s. Perhaps for fans of Anna Chlumsky (My Girl) or shirtless Aaron Michael Metchik (brother of Asher Metchik?). Also starring Sissy Spacek who appeared in other good farm films like "The River" and "Raggedy Man" (see that entries). I assume few-medium bib scenes according to the trailer. But I will have to check this full movie for other bib scenes or actors in bibs. Rated PG. Film aka The Mommy Market.

Update: Briefly checked at high speed. I couldn't find the scene pictured, but one other brief scene at 28 minutes. The older brother, at least shirtless twice is much more of interest but not in bibs. Was also on my bedroom blog, rating 5.

Update 2: Also Anna Chlumsky in striped bibs and a lady (not Spacek, brief scenes), and a better pic of Asher

Préparez vos mouchoirs

French romance starring Gérard Depardieu, 1 oscar
-Year: 1978
-Year in film: 1970s
-Country: France
-Who in bibs: Christian 13
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: low ?
-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Riton Liebmann (pictured) in light blue hickory striped bibs. I don't remember the complete film, which I saw in the late 80s or early 90s. I think of few bib scenes only (?) or mainly at the end of this film. This famous movie is also a first love story of the 13 year old boy and the woman Solange. Rated R (restricted). 20 years ago I liked this film but I don't know if I would today. A French film of the 70s. There are more. I have to see it again to check the bib scenes, but I can only rate 4 for now for the bibs. Film aka Get Out Your Handkerchiefs.

Update: I checked some more parts of this movie but had not the time to watch it completely. I still only noticed some few minutes at the very end of the film. The pockets of the side bibs are blue inside and it looks as if the bibs were ripped. I don't like hickory striped bibs and boys with long curly hair nor the 70s. For bib scenes rating 4-5. The movie itself is very good. Some very good coming-of-age and humiliation scenes. Typical French film. Lots of other kids, but I havent's seen any other in bibs. Film would be rating 8. But I think I wouldn't buy it. So I will check it again the next broadcasting.

Ein Richter zum Küssen

TV family comedy film, starring Klausjürgen Wussow
-Year: 1995
-Year in film: 1990s
-Country: Austria/Germany
-Who in bibs: boys Wolfgang ~15, Benny ~7
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes
-Bib occurrence: low
-Rating:  8/10
-Rating: ********
-Comment: Teen Benjamin Spiehs (pic 1 on right) in blue bibs and Michael Menger in red shortalls. (I found also vice versa names). I had some parts on VHS but I bought this DVD. Title transliterates A judge to kiss. Wussow played the judge and the mother of the boys. German version of Mrs. Doubtfire. I usually don't like old men in womens' clothes. But I like bib films and this is also a good family entertainment with some funny scenes. Few bib scenes at start and end of film. Both boys sitting on the floor. Very good scene of teen boy, mostly sitting (no view of backside only front and side). I think this is one of the best non-american films with bibs. Although few bib scenes, and I prefer US farm films, I rate 8. Sadly not much more bib scenes than I already had, but better quality and I like this film. At least young Benny sounds like Austrian. Filmed in Austria but German production. First I thought this was the series Der Patenonkel season 2, but this was wrong. I search all films with Wussow and found it. DVD already released 2 years before his death. In the middle of film Wolfgang in suit and tie and Benny in sailor suit.
Update: Now also entry at my sailor suit blog.
DVD is RC0, 4:3 fullscreen and have some extras like pics and trailer.

-Comment: Louanne in beige and light red bibs (pictured). I don't know this complete films, but I think I don't like either film nor bibs. I assume low-medium bib occurence. Starring George Burns as God. Novel by Avery Corman. I have to watch these films, perhaps there are more in bibs. For now rating 4. Part 1 Oh, God (1977) also starring John Denver and was nominated for an Oscar. Director Carl Reiner.

Book 2: Harris and Me

Gary Paulsen: Harris and Me

I don't have much farm and bib books, yet. I bought and read this book over 1 year ago.
No illustrations like in book series "Soup" (see that book entry). But other than in Soup, here are good bib scenes described.
I don't remember the whole book and have to read it again if I have more time. I marked the following scenes.
First the plot: Harris visits at summer holidays his uncle's farm and his male cousin.
Page 81: changing into bibs without underwear and this is noticed (by his mom?).
Page 130: unzipping the bibs and peeing at an electric fence.
Page 147: loosing bibs during an accident and walking in the nude.
Also another nude scene while sunbathing at page 112, perhaps he also worn bibs before.

Cover depicting one boy in bibs but that doesn't automatically means that good bib scenes are in the book.
I have to find similiar books, if someone knows any, please comment.

I saw only few bib scenes in the beginning and end. Also swimming scenes in underwear. Novel by Gabrielle Lord. 9 children, mostly older and some in good other jeans. There are better films but also worse. Set in rural Australia also showing it's landscape and climbing scenes (also in bibs).

Update: 2 more pics. Also of the lady. With belt.IMDb now says 1985.
