His first film as director, the black-comic Une bombe pas comme les autres (1956) for the writer-producer team of 'Frank Launder and Sidney Gilliat, garnered fine reviews and a classic notoriety; using this as a starting point, Day went on to become one of the industry's busiest directors.

He occasionally turns up in bits in his own productions, including Grip of the Strangler (1958), Le paradis des monte-en-l'air (1960), the mini-series Peter and Paul (1981), etc.
