Princess Raccoon DVD

NTSC/Region 0. This film centers on the lovely and talented Zhang Ziyi who plays Tanuki-hime, a raccoon spirit princess who suddenly falls in love with Amechiyo (Bright Future's Odagiri Jo), a handsome prince who finds himself exiled from his vainglorious father's kingdom. Will the two lovers stay together or will fate tear them apart? with it's kaleidoscope of top of the line special effects, surreal painted backdrops, and self-consciously theatrical soundstages, Princess Raccoon is a psychedelic, hallucinatory, and ultimately joyous cinematic experience, making it a true spectacle in every sense of the word! After undergoing extensive training, lead actress Zhang Ziyi dances, speaks in Japanese, and even sings a few tunes in Mandarin to complete the zany, "anything goes" mentality of both the film and director Suzuki himself. With performance styles ranging from operetta and kabuki to rap and reggae, Tanuki Goten is a delirious, fantasia-like tale of forbidden romance that emphasizes the importance of following one's heart!
