A history mystery or just a strange coincidence? This is what the man in the video wrote about it:

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.

Do you think he's right or is he mistaken... or just promoting that Chaplin's movie? Leave your comments below and say what you think after watching the video. Is that a mobile phone for real?
