Fritz the Cat (1972)

[Movie] Find on Amazon

An irreverent animated comedy following the misadventures of a cynical, drug‑using cat in 1960s New York.

Why people love it: It broke ground as the first X‑rated animated feature, delivering razor‑sharp social commentary with wild humor. Bakshi’s gritty style captured the counter‑culture vibe of its era. The film remains a bold, controversial milestone in animation history.
