I've only heard of that because my mother saw it as a kid.  Though, when I checked for her, it was indeed available on Disney+.  Not sure if it is still there...

It's also in TCM's library of films. They show it now and then.

Calvados is another name for apple brandy.

At one time apple brandy was looked down on as a drink for peasants.

Is that what my kids were getting when they ate Apple Jacks cereal from Kellogg?  No wonder they could act so goofy sometimes.

What a letdown!  All this time I thought Apple Jack was Johnny Appleseed's boyfriend.

Oh well!  Does this mean if I drink an applejack each day it will keep the doctor away?

Hell, no!  It will probably get the doctor to come join you.
