That is strange. It's not even a clip from the movie itself, so it can't even be claimed that it is a vision of the future placed into the film. Since it is on the extras and is showing normal people walking into / out of a screening of the movie then that makes it appear even odder than if it was part of the plan.
She does look like she is speaking into a mobile phone, or some sort of similar device.
The only explanation I have is that she was holding something to her ear but talking to someone in front of her. It doesn't look as if she is really talking to anyone present there though.

Well, not a debate topic, so I'm moving it.

Personally, I didn't see anything. Maybe she was just psycho and was talking to her wallet. It was near the depression, maybe she was asking it why it had no money inside. But again, I saw nothing. Maybe it's like back tracking in songs. Sometimes you can hear something, other times you're just listening too hard and your mind gets you.
I think this might actually explain it, especially if you look at the older gentleman in the picture:

I saw this in one of the video comments and decided to look it up--it certainly seems feasible. It does seem a bit odd that she looks like she was talking, but she could have just been singing to herself or something, or muttering something to herself like, "Darn it, this wretched device doesn't seem to be working!" She did look like she was having some difficulty or irritation about something, unless she was just squinting from the light

I read this in the paper....yesterday i think it was. Could be anything tbh but il tell you what it definately isnt, a time traveller :dave:
That's freaky if something like that catches your attention. It's quite hard to notice because I think we're so used to it, it would seem normal. I didn't even know what he was trying to point out at my first view.
I definitely think it's a time traveller.

misleading crap.
"if you look carefully you'll see a thin black device held to her ear".
i did look carefully, i saw nothing.
she could be holding a mole up to her ear and talking to it. who cares tbh.
insignificant pish.

No, I'm not convinced. Any hypothetical time traveller would be hard pressed to get any form of signal on his or her phone in 1928 anyway, and I'm just too sceptical to the idea of the practicality of time travel that I refuse to go with George Clarke's theory. Perhaps he and his audience could not find a viable explanation, but it doesn't mean other people can't. Gamingway has just posted what looks like a very reasonable explanation. Those kind of hearing aids did exist from 1924 onwards and a glance at the old guy in that link certainly looks like what the woman in the clip is doing.

Cunt!
I love Charlie Chaplin. I really, really do. I own the box set and another 3-disc set of shorts and other movies and I've seen this 'time traveler'. I don't really know what to think about it, but I just wanted to say that I love Charlie. xD I watched the Great Dictator last night and laughed my ass off.
Ahh, I saw this yesterday after being a sneaky fucker on Wiki. At first it looked like she was talking to a phone of some kind. But after it shows the close up of her, it actually looks like she is just scratching her head with her hand. I can't explain the talking part though. :/
Wow 
was it really back in 2010 when this thread came out. I remember posting in it so well. Time flies.
The story is still just as shite as it was back then and the news hasnt gotten any better either.
