Most of the struggling actors and actresses were waiting tables, providing calligraphy services amongst other things, and in between those jobs, they auditioned for various types of movies before eventually getting that role that launched them to stardom. But some of these actors were already born in rich and famous families, so there was no need for them to go through all that trouble to become famous themselves.
