Day of the Fight (1951): 1 line
-
lineage (inspiration) · through The March of Time, which they worked on as high school friend, early collaborator; worked on The March of Time:
The March of Time ⇒ Day of the Fight (the host's read).
Kubrick was inspired to make Day of the Fight cheaply after Singer worked on the costly March of Time short.
“what he was inspired by was Alexander Singer had worked on another short, the March of Time, which apparently it's like, they'd spent $40,000 making”
