Charlie Chaplin and the Time Traveller

Somebody catches a glimpse of a person on a cell phone in a 1926 film reel and the next thing you know Charlie Chaplin is a Trending Topic on Twitter.
Go figure.
So, what happened is, in case you haven't heard, someone was watching an old film reel from the premiere of a Charlie Chaplin film, circa 1926, and in the footage you can clearly see a woman walking and talking on what appears to be a cell phone.
This makes no sense, of course, but no one has so far been able to explain just what she is doing, or been able to prove the film is a fake.
Decide for yourself about whether she might be a time traveller, but as far me, I enjoy seeing Charlie Chaplin's name in lights again nearly 35 years after his death.....




@ida_of_swe Amused by the Charlie Chaplin trend on footage of a time-traveler talking on a cell phone. Who the F*** would she be able to call in 1928?!

@MR_KENNEDY1 I thin that was Marty Mcfly in that film.. Where was Dr. Emmit Brown?? #Charlie Chaplin

@wrongtothetom if i was a cross dressing time traveler with enormous feet on a Charlie Chaplin set i'd probably phone someone to boast about it too

@davegibbons90 "I'M AT THE CHARLIE CHAPLIN PREMIERE!"... "YEAH!1926!"... "I'M DRESSED AS A WOMAN!"... "THE SIGNAL'S RUBBISH!"

@mattdegroot Although the reason is bizarre I love that Charlie Chaplin is trending! Makes me want to watch City Lights and weep in the fetal position

@danspeerin Was excited Charlie Chaplin was trending, but it's because people believe there's a time traveller in his movies? Sighs... damn you people
