Watch this clip, filmed in 1928 at the premiere of the Charlie Chaplin movie "The Circus":

As you watch, take notice of the 2nd person to come into frame. What's she doing with her left hand?

She's on a cell phone. In 1928.

:freakout:

Well, the first comment is

That's my grandmother. She called me the other day and said "Guess where I am?"

I said, "Behind a zebra with a saddle."

Then she paused, looked over and saw the Google Maps car.

so I guess that guy :)

Ice held to a tooth ache? Compress to a seeping wound? She seems to be grimacing in the brief moment we can see her face. Hiding her face because she is really a he, but they needed a female walk-on? Hiding her face because she's a spy or a police agent within the movie; Chaplin's Tramp was always in trouble with the police? Well, except when he was one, on Easy Street.

For the record, that's not part of the movie, it's an extra on the DVD, and it's a shot of the movie's premeire at Mann's Chinese Theater...that's just a random passerby.

I'm not so sure that's a grimace tho...it looks like her mouth is forming words.
