About 6 years old before going to posterity thanks to the role of Lieutenant John Macclane in the legendary “crystal trap”, Bruce Willis took one of his first steps on the screen in front of Sidney Lumet's camera.
3 years ago, the legendary Bruce Willis ended his career for health reasons, after several decades to count among the largest stars of Hollywood cinema, and in particular in the field of action.
During his rich and remarkable course, we could see him embodying the unrealrable John McClane in the Hard Die saga 5 times, but also play in other classics of the genre such as the last Samaritan, the fifth element, Armageddon or more recently expendable.
Beginnings as a figure
In addition to his cap of action heroes, Bruce Willis also managed to reveal other facets of his actor palette, notably with Mr. Night Shyamalan who offered him two of his most beautiful roles (in sixth sense and unbreakable) or in the excellent the army of the 12 monkeys of Terry Gilliam.
But 43 years ago, before arriving in the spotlight, the future superstar still worked to climb the first levels of the large scale which was going to lead him to the Hollywood heights. It was as a figure (in a prestigious film) that he put one of his first steps on the floor of cinema.

A very small role in a great legal film
After a very small role in the thriller hard (led by Frank Sinatra and Faye Dunaway in 1982), it could indeed be seen (provided you open the eye and know where to look for him) among the public of the court in a famous film by Sidney Lumet with Paul Newman: Le Verdict.
After this stealth (and to say the whole, almost imperceptible) appearance in a feature film which is still considered today as one of the classics of the legal film, Bruce Willis continued his journey and was not long in meeting success.
In the mid -1980s, it was thanks to the comic and romantic Lune series that he arrived on the front of the stage, before obtaining the most mythical role of his career in 1988, in the legendary crystal trap by John McTiernan.
