Do we think she's putting that on a bit for effect, or is it likely to be real?

Big call! I'm not sure about that.. I think maybe a lot of the time people do extreme things, it's for extreme reasons

I was at a Christmas lunch a few years ago, with family and an elderly couple I didn't know - friends of friends or something, must've been in their 80s. The old man was just about deaf and didn't contribute much to the conversation, but within about 15 minutes his wife was blithely telling us about having been gang raped when she was younger. I think she might have had dementia or something and the whole thing might have been in her head, but it's pretty bracing to hear stuff like that from the mouth a sweet, little old lady!

So the photo was taken in 1939. In 1940 Chaplin made The Great Dictator, one of the boldest and most important contributions of the art establishment to America's anti-nazism movement, in the early days of the war.
Disney, on the other hand, would go on to welcome prominent Nazis to his studios and became famously antisemitic - though he also made a tonne of short films for the US government's war effort.
There's no moral to the story, I just found it interesting to see them side by side like this, Nd wondered when the photo was taken.
