Now I hadn't watched Mein Name ist Bach since the original release, so I rewatched it last night to refresh my memory, and was amused how heavily it leans into the jerkass woobie interpretation of Fritz, including him making his servant roleplay himself and Katte in the middle of the night which the servant knows is a terrible idea that won't help Fritz and will only make him more upset, as per usual, but does anyway. (Otoh, the jerkass side also gets ample display, starting with his introduction. It's definitely played as "abusive survivor of abuse", though.)
