She would sit at the window watching the passers-by and guess at their characters from the way they looked and behaved, making up tales to delight Charlie and Syney. Charlie took in her skills and went on using them all his life. Charlie had always believed, even in the worst times, that he had something special locked away inside him. He took his courage and went to one of the top theater agents. With no experience at all, he was offered a plum part in a new production of "Sherlock Holmes", which opened on July 27, 1903 at the famous "Pavilion Theatre". Charlie seemed to change overnight. It was as if he had found the thing he was meant to do. By 1910, Charlie had become "one of the best pantomime artists ever seen ".

But after using several weeks to watch and to learn, he was determined to master this new medium. It offered him the chance of money and success--and it would set him free from the _ of live audience. Charlie's first film, released in February 1914, was called "Making a living". After that he made another ten. The public loved him and producers were demanding more and more Chaplin films. In an incredibly short time, Charlie had become a very important man in motion picture.
