I would have to see the "real" footage to judge for sure...if it exist at all.

It could be a device we think of as a cellphone but doesn't require a cell tower or satellite...maybe they are from a Star Ship!!!
[edit] For Trek fans you aren't thinking out the box with this.
I like my box plain and square.
He got into a fight and was cursing and trying to stop the bleeding?
If this was a time traveller, the time police in the future would know about it (as we know about it in the present), so they would have sent some agents back to make sure that this mistake never happened, and we wouldn't be here talking about it now.
Therefore, it logically cannot be a time traveller.

Thank you. This is much ado about nothing.
We may not be thinking outside the box, because we're logical.
I'm gonna hand it over to my resident expert and see what he says about it.
Senator?

If this is really in the film - and I don't care enough to check - it's probably just a variation on old style hearing aids:

It was my thought too that it was an old ear-trumpet.
Look familiar, folks?
In the first place, the footage isn't from a Chaplin feature; it's from a newsreel covering the premiere of a Chaplin film at Grauman's Chinese Theatre. As for the “time traveler,” it's a woman shielding her face with a small object, possibly a clutch purse, because she doesn't want to be seen on camera.
Move along, folks. Nothing to see here.
Then again, she could really be Bigfoot in disguise, talking to the Loch Ness Monster and the Abominable Snowman on a conference call.

I'm of the opinion she is holding a small hearing aid talking to somebody just out of shot, or maybe the guy in front is her husband and they just had a argument off screen and he is walking away from her.
Of course i could be totally wrong and mannish looking woman time traveler's that use old mobile communications devices from the late 20th century are the future evolution of the human race.
Although if they are real and read this in the future then my apologies on the mannish comment, please don't wipe me from history...thanks.

Well, I actually said "feature" meaning "DVD Special Feature". A rudimentary viewing of the attached link shows it is NOT from a Charlie Chaplin film but rather a special feature of a film premiere.
Move along then, Gen Y.
I'm with you. I suspect Photoshop.
Two words: BIGFOOT!
In disguise.
All right, that was three words. Not counting the "two words" bit.

This was pretty much a flawless victory.
I appreciate imagination, but sometimes people can be so quick to jump to the most far fetched conclusions.
It seems pretty obvious that some old lady is just walking along, trying to get a hearing aid to work, possibly while muttering to herself.
No tremendous mystery there.
