About Bad Luck Blackie
A kitten who is being tormented by a bulldog finds a savior in a black cat (from the "Black Cat Bad Luck Company") who merely has to cross the dog's path for something very unlucky to happen to the bully.
Directed by Tex Avery, Bad Luck Blackie leans on a strong ensemble — Pat McGeehan, Harry Lang, Tex Avery — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1949.
