    The movie is called sun valley serenade I believe it came out in 1941. Haven’t had the chance to sit down it watch it yet, but it looks good.

    Thanks, Doug. I've had this soap & splash for 2 years, but this is the first time I've used it. Off the tub, it was just uninteresting. It was a singular apple note with nothing more. I finally decided to use it and discovered it's quite a bit more than that. There's a kiss of smoke and the apple is a very natural warm apple with some distant hints of spice. There's much more to this than I'd originally expected. It was a very enjoyable shave.

    Thank you gentlemen!
    Yes, I really like the bowls from symmetrical pottery. A little overkill as I have three of them in different finishes.
