On medical brand names, I tend to be on the non-intervention side of medical treatment unless necessary. Raising my twins, they've had some skin issues and QV cream was recommended.

I learnt that QV cream was developed for the Queen Victoria hospital, hence the name. Got an instant pass just on that -- local, few ingredients, nurse involvement, excellent branding.

"Where is the story of Genghis Khan in the original Mongolian?"

I saw it in the local art-house theater when it was released and remember enjoying it, although it isn't as memorable to me now as "Apocalypto."
