Plot Synopsis
Storyline
Opera star Giovanni Jones is trying to rehearse but Bugs is singing another tune while playing his banjo, then his harp, then his tuba. Jones destroys the instruments over Bugs' head, and, of course, "this means war." Revenge takes place when Bugs, as white-maned "Leopold", conducts Jones' Hollywood Bowl concert.

When I try to decide which is the best Looney Tunes cartoon ever, it's a shoo-in between "Long-Haired Hare" and "What's Opera, Doc?". In "Long-Haired Hare", Bugs Bunny is singing some songs and playing instruments to accompany them, when overstuffed opera singer Giovanni Jones smashes Bugs' instruments and ties him up. Bugs affirms to the camera "Of course you realize this means war." So, when Jones is performing at the Hollywood Bowl, Bugs plays all sorts of tricks on him. Best of all are the hand directions. This is a veritable triumph-of-the-underdog story. You just can't go wrong with the classic Bugs Bunny cartoons. Perfect.
