"What's Opera, Doc" -- it's a musical, it's an action-adventure piece, it's a love story, it's got cross-dressing, it's got a well-fed midget horse. Everything "License To Wed" should have had.
"It is the antithesis of the routine cartoon. In place of snappy one-liners we see Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny singing their parts with complete sincerity and commitment. The backgrounds are beautifully textured paintings. The score is powerful and moving. Bugs cuts a striking figure in a metallic brassiere before Madonna was even born. It's audacious and decadent and beautiful and bold and everything the vast majority of cartoons would never dare to be."
