HOLLYWOOD -- 33 years after his death, a 1928 film clip from a Charlie Chaplin movie premier that appears to show a woman talking on a cell phone is sparking debate and controversy.

soon as I saw this article, I just knew Tourist Guy would show up!

I'm waiting for the gopher and looter guy.

That video is kinda creepy. If I didn’t know what period it was from, I’d just assume someone is talking on a cell phone. It is especially interesting toward the “end” where he/she turns their head and really appears to be talking in the device.

Of course, if this IS a time traveler, they knew this would happen. :)

This actually reminds me of one of my absolute favorite movies - The Grand Tour. It touches on this exact scenario. And the person most definitely IS a time traveler, at least in the movie.

I vote for a clever bit of film editing by some bored prankster who had the tedious job of transfering celluloid films to DVD. An expert could tease this out, to see if the figure is consistent with the rest of the set.

Or look for another copy of this film footage and compare for the figure.

I was trying to imply that Zer0 was a hostile alien.

He is, too.

It appears that she is hiding her face from the camera and nothing more.
Just another Drive By Media offering

Obviously this is a case of time traveling. No other explanation makes sense when time traveling will suffice. < /S>

Now that this matter has been settled, is she is Rand Paul supporter?

Regarding the Gold Bridge sunglasses dude - nothing unusual about the guy. The collar of his jacket is casting a shadow that appears to be a hoodie but it isn't a hoodie. What looks like a modern day t-shirt is a football/hockey/college sport uniform shirt. Below is a very similar shirt from about 1938-40 worn by Tom Harmon, Michigan's first Heisman winner.

Or here's another little cutie:

Oh. When you imply stuff to me, you pretty much have to use a sledge hammer.

You’re exactly right, but will Dr. Who help us? He pretty much sticks to London.

We’ll just have to impeach xeno-zer0 on our own.

I remember 1974. I’m sure you can find a better year to go back to.

1976 for example?

Future Americans decide to time travel to 1776 to ask the founding fathers for the solutions to their problems. A glitch in the time machine changes their destination to 1976. Still believing themselves to be in 1776, the time travellers attempt to study this "ideal" civilization. 70's jokes, props and stars abound.

Unless it's Amy Pond, I don't care

That movie was hysterical.

Mountaineering glasses. I have a pair. So did Sir Edmund in the 50’s. Not to strange.

The glasses that Hillary used in the 1950s were virtually the same as the ones used by George Mallory and Sandy Irvine in 1924.

Okay, *I* can’t even believe I am posting this, but I swear that person looks like Ronald Reagan to me! Look at the face when it turns toward the camera.

Tardis Express - When it absolutely, positively has to be there yesterday.

[Sawdring]

No, that will be outlawed in 74 AF, the Human Purity Act. Don’t you read any Future?

Those look like goggles ... look at that guy again. OTOH, the picture is just a curiosity - a very modern looking guy mixed in with people wearing coats and ties, nothing more.

[SkyDancer]

It’s just a curiosity picture. A very modern looking guy mixed in with people wearing hats and coats with ties ... nothing more ..

[SkyDancer]

Nice coat ... wonder if I can get one that looks like that but for hiding out in snow ... but then, being here in Australia snow is not an option ... maybe when I return to the US ...

[Sawdring]

Now that I think of it, I wonder why we still know about this. Obviously time travel has been kept from us so once the people who traveled find out about it, they will simply go back and remove the phone from the woman or perhaps will deny her a time travel permit.

[SkyDancer]

It’s just a curiosity picture nothing more ... a very modern looking guy mixed in with people dressed up; coat, tie, hats ... ladies wearing nice dresses and then here’s this guy ....
