'Day of the Fight' shows Irish-American middleweight boxer Walter Cartier during the height of his career, on the day of a fight with middleweight Bobby James, which took place on April 17, 1950. The film opens with a short section on boxing's history, and then follows Cartier through his day, as he prepares for the 10 P.M. bout that night.

Stanley Kubrick è ancora senza dubbio l'autore cinematografico per eccellenza. I suoi film affascinano spettatori di tutte le generazioni. Il segreto risiede forse nella natura "mediana" del suo lavoro: Kubrick controllava ogni fase della realizzazione di un film, come un indipendente, ma rimase sempre nel quadro di un dialogo costante con le major hollywoodiane. Inoltre affrontava questioni filosofiche e tendeva all'astrazione del pensiero, ma lo faceva sollecitando le emozioni e i sensi del pubblico.
