沃尔特·卡蒂尔

Day Of The Fightquot; tells of a day in the life of a middleweight Irish boxer named Walter Cartier, articularly the day of his bout with black middleweight Bobby James. This 16-minute short oens with a short (about 4 minutes) study of boxing#39;s history, narrated by veteran newscaster Douglas Edwards in a no-nonsense, noir tone of voice. After this, we follow Walter (and his twin other Vincent) through his day as he reares for his 10:00 P.M. bout. After eating eakfast, going to early mass and eating lunch, he starts arranging his things for the fight at 4:00 P.M. By 8:00, he is waiting in his dressing room, where he undergoes a mental transformation, turning into the fighting machine the crowd clamors for. At 10:00, he faces James, and soon, he comes out victorious in a short match which was filmed live on Aril 17th, 1950.
