Fritz wasn’t counterculture in the early 1960s. But the character morphes as Robert grew older. And eventually he killed the character off when the movie got made without his control.

I love the movie. I think every teenage wannabe hippie should be required to watch it and should be quizzed on it. It’s a very good demythologizing of the 60s counterculture. Gritty and cynical.
