Princess Raccoon DVD, 2005Availability Delivery Returns Policy
MovieMail's ReviewSuzuki Seijun is an 82 year-old director who has learned a lot and forgotten very little about cinema and its possibilities. Famous for cult gangster films and battles with baffled studio bosses, here he changes tack and offers us sheer pleasure in a love letter to cinema. If you can imagine Michael Powell and Baz Luhrmann signed up as a team to adapt a Japanese folk tale in the style of a kabuki show, or as its Japanese title suggests, an 'operetta', you are part way to describing Princess Raccoon.
