Fritz the Cat (1972)

It seemed important to watch this seminal work of adult animation, but I think a lot of what was being attempted flew over my head. There is a lot of criticism of left wing ideas of the late 60s, some of which are relevant today but a lot that doesn’t have a parallel. It’s not surprising that, particularly at the time, many people don’t know what to make of the explicit animated sex and drug use. The story itself follows Fritz through various misadventures, all told in rough, but brightly colored classic animation.
