The first short film by Kubrick, it follows a boxer through the day-long wait for an evening fight.
I watched this out of interest as I watch the majority of Kubrick's films. However this is the only appeal that I can see for watching this.
The short follows the boxer through his routines on the day, the heavy narration talks us through the whole thing. In theory the short is meant to give us an insight in the boxer's thoughts and feelings however it really only shows us what he eats and who he talks to.
This is interesting if you are a Kubrick completist but other than that it is of limited appeal.
