That Charlie Chaplin has genius status is undisputed. But the artist
was really awesome to incorporate a time traveler in one of his
movies?

1928 appears on a woman, apparently the phone - with a cell phone!

Although the first mobile phone appeared in 1980 on, with Charlie
Chaplin in 1928

The older woman wearing a black coat and a black hat. The left hand is
on ear. Gestures and behavior suggest that they talk to someone. In
its immediate vicinity, however, no party can be seen. It actually
looks like they would with a mobile phone.

Film Freak George Clark made ​​the bizarre discovery. Clark was the
scene around 100 people. No one had a convincing explanation.

How is that still possible?

Some viewers assume that the unknown woman listens to the radio.
Others say the woman just did not show her face, turns away and
therefore holds the hand of it.

Skeptics say that Clark would have the scene itself is mounted into
the material to promote his own film company. What might the great
Charlie Chaplin would say .
