OK ATS
this is what you are all here for, annalytical skills.
Check this footage from the 1928 film The Circus,
The footage is appearing on a guys youtube also promoting his film festival, so apologies on that, but he found it, so spose he can garner the attention for what he wants

Basically there is a woman/man in drag walking in a scene talking on what appears to be a mobile phone.....
Watcha y'all think? Have a lookie !



Was Charlie Chaplin a time traveller? he made loads of money and cornered a market.....lol
Or was it a day tripper saying yeeehah guess where i am?
Or a lady clutching nothing with a shadow in her hand?
What would you do if you could time travel? Checkout this clip from the behind the scenes footage from the 1928 Charlie Chaplin movie ‘The Circus’. This short film is about a piece of footage that a fan named George Clarke found from behind the scenes in Charlie Chaplins film ‘The Circus’. Attending the premiere at Manns Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, CA – the scene shows a large woman dressed in black with a hat hiding most of her face, with what can only be described as a mobile phone device – talking as she walks alone. George’s only theory is simple… it’s a time traveler on a mobile phone. I like how George thinks. Check it out yourself and see what you think. Just don’t try to think about things like the nearest cell tower. I can just hear Doc Brown saying it now, “Marty. You’ll never guess where I am! Mann’s Chinese Theater to see Charlie Chaplin.” My theory is that Charlie Chaplin was the time traveler and he must’ve brought someone back. I even found another video of Chaplin showing up in the future!

I don't really have much explanation as to what that could be.
I am just shooting from the hip on this one.

Can someone make zoomed in still pictures so we can dig our teeth into it??

That's the main thing I am thinking as far as "cell phone"

Unless in the future they have super high tech phones that work between dimensions.

My vote now is either with a ear/tooth ache, or a wrist communications device.

My spin on a feasible explanation...

She's an extra or passerby - or even a male tapped to portray a female passerby, doing a pick-up shot for the promotional footage - newsreel coverage of the movie premiere.

Long story short... an extra (male or female) tapped to do a walk-by scene (notice that the sign in the background promotes the Chaplin film "Circus") - this extra not being experienced or aware of protocol is simply trying to cover their mouth from the camera while talking to the director/producer/cameraman or whoever...

"OK, _______, now walk past the zebra - act natural and don't look at the camera. You're supposed to be just a shmoe on the street"

*covering mouth with hand* "Like this Mr Camera guy? Am I doing good? I'm walking like you said. Oh, wait, I just looked at the camera... haha."

"Yeah... you did fine."
"Hey, Billy... scrap this footage and find me a better extra, willya?"

Little did anyone know that years later an archivist would come across this footage, catalogue it, and include it in a DVD.

That's my theory. A bad amateur actor trying to cover the fact that he/she was talking during filming.

Good on ya heff!
Like the extra in drag explanation.

The ear clutch isnt the ear being clutched, but a possble object to the ear...it is a odd behaviour.....for back then...given the talking talking part....

I'm with Drums, hope someonce can post a still we can look at.
