The acting career of a Frisco 5-year-old is off to a promising start.
Miles Brooks' first movie, "Pioneer," won best Narrative Short at South By Southwest this year.
He said acting in the 15-minute film was a learning experience.
"Well, it's fun to be an actor, too," Miles said.
His father, Kevin, said he is proud of the work his son has done.
"I thought he did great," he said. "Even if he did bad, I’d say he did great, so you can't ask me."
"Pioneer" was shot by Dallas director David Lowery and produced by Fort Worth's James M. Johnston. The 15-minute film, which was featured at the Sundance Film Festival, is about a man telling his son an epic bedtime story.
