Tokyo Pop (トーキョー ポップ[2], Tōkyō Poppu) is a 1988 musical comedy film directed by Fran Rubel Kuzui, who co-wrote the screenplay with Lynn Grossman. The film follows an American girl (Carrie Hamilton), a Japanese boy (Yutaka Tadokoro) and a briefly successful pop band. It contrasts American customs with Tokyo lifestyles, while presenting an evolving love story between the two main characters.[3]
In real life, Tadokoro fronted the 1980s rock group Red Warriors, who also star in the film as themselves. Other notable actors include Gina Belafonte, Michael Cerveris and Tetsuro Tamba, with an uncredited cameo by Japanese rock band X Japan.
