Woman Caught Talking on Cell Phone in 1928 Charlie Chaplin Film "The Circus" Footage?

UPDATE: Answer to the Cell Phone/Traveler in 1928 Found? There is a flat, rectangular shaped hearing aid device that was built by the Siemens company back in 1924 that shows an older man holding it to his ear (see picture at right) like one would do with a cell phone. But if she is holding a hearing aid, what is she trying listen to in that crowded movie theater area, with no one really around her? This corporate website says the device was patented, but was it ever sold to the public?

EARLIER: Holy shnikies, Batman! What's going on here? Is this a fake, a prank, or something else?

From the poster of the YouTube Video:

The subject of time traveling generally only comes up when you're watching a movie, or reading a science fiction novel.   A European film maker by the name of George Clarke, claims to have found evidence of a real life time traveler in a 1928 film featuring Charlie Chaplin.

Read what George has to say about the discovery below, then check out the clip.

"This short film is about a piece of footage I (George Clarke) found 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.

I have studied this film for over a year now - showing it to over 100 people and at a film festival, yet no-one can give any explanation as to what she is doing.

My only theory - as well as many others - is simple... a time traveler on a mobile phone. See for yourself and feel free to leave a comment on your own explanation or thoughts about it."
