Audience Reviews for Princess Raccoon (Operetta tanuki goten)

This was my first exposure to the films of Seijun Suzuki. I found it inventive, colorful, and positively baffling mishmash of elements.

Very Bizarre! The best musical I've seen for years. Seijun Suzuki put all of his experience and imagination in this film.
