move smoothly,and soon I would be one of the best-known faces on cinema screen throughout the world.I was confident in my first performance in 1986.I knew the lead role was perfect for me.I was anxious to become well-known.But when they offered me a small role,I saw that my plans for quick success had been ruined.Over the years I tried out for other roles,but I never got a good part.Sometimes I thought of giving up.Five years later,I found myself working in the offices of a movie company.And eventually I ended up as a manager of this company after years of hard work.
