Explanation

In 1913, Charlie Chaplin signed a contract with Keystone Studios for \$125 per week, which was a significant sum at the time. This offer came after Mack Sennett, the studio head, saw Chaplin perform with the Karno troupe. The \$125/week salary marked Chaplin's transition from stage performer to film actor. He would later earn much more as he gained creative control and became one of the most famous people in the world.
