Everything seemed to be easier and the chances are you were having. Was called to audition, in which he gave his best, and after his great performance was offered a contract to work in a movie, and although the role was small, Peg felt that she had taken their first step into celluloid . The film was called "Thirteen woman " , but unfortunately the criticism of the film and characters were poor and disappointing. To make matters worse, his small appearances were edited, so it almost went unnoticed in the whole movie.
subsequent months attended several auditions, but unfortunately could not get any paper.
