Richard Attenborough

Which scene in a well known film inspired "Dickie" to become an actor?

Not quite the answer you are looking for, but there seems to be a clue here:

Attenborough writes: �Charlie Chaplin has been an inspiration to me since childhood. He was the first star actor I ever saw on the cinema screen and his legendary ability to make an audience cry and then almost immediately laugh was greatly responsible for my eventual choice of career.�
