Bruce Lee’s First steps in his career

[andrewsmith]

Bruce Lee had begun his acting career when he was too little, it was at the age of three months, before his parents left San Francisco, in a film called Golden Gate Girl. He played the role of a female baby, carried by his father more as a stage prop than anything else. Although Bruce never took formal acting lessons, with his father’s help and connections he landed his first proper role at the age of six in the Hong Kong-made film The Birth of Mankind. Bruce played a street kid who fights with a shoeshine boy, played by his friend Unicorn. Also when he was six, Bruce played his first role under the name Lee Siu Lung (Lee Little Dragon, the name by which he became known in Asia) appearing with his father in My Son, Ah Chung. Bruce was cast as the cute co-star to the top Cantonese film comic, Chow Shui, and played a streetwise kid trying to survive in Hong Kong’s sweatshops.
