What's Opera, Doc?

1957 · 7 min

A riotous, lovingly crafted operatic parody where slapstick and grand music collide, leaving you grinning at the sheer audacity.

Directed by
Chuck Jones
Genres
Animation, Comedy, Music
Overview
Elmer Fudd is again hunting rabbits - only this time it's an opera. Wagner's Siegfried with Elmer as the titular hero and Bugs as Brunnhilde. They sing, they dance, they eat the scenery.
How it feels
Whimsical, absurd, satirical and campy. Brisk and easy to follow.
About
Obsession, deception, death, art
Content
Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
