Considering the infrastructure required to make a mobile phone work I very much doubt this is anything like the person claims.

It is a film, one directed by Charlie Chaplin, so those people filmed walking stage right to stage left are scripted to do so. I find it interesting that both the elderly man and woman are walking in step.

If you have a look at this link you'll see that over time there have been all kinds of weird and wonderful styles of <a href="http://www.phisick.com/zaarchent.htm" target="_blank">ear trumpets</a>.

imho I think she is stopping too early, turns to the general direction of the director and asks maybe something like, "Shall I stop now?"

If that was a phone in her hand then within the last second or so her grip changes just before the fade out, which I think that if it was a mobile phone as he suggests I think she would have dropped it.
Just be a nutter... life becomes much more exciting, and people won't expect anything more of you...

Interesting Claw. I hope you are recovering well matey.


I think it is a weak argument to say it is a communication device in the first place. Surely if the person is a time traveller then communication would be with a simple earpiece. She is chewing on a deli wrap.
