The 1970s 'Wonder Woman' was sort of a kitsch thing. It was a very specific time for that, and it's hard to modernize something like that.

When I started out, it was considered very wrong to change an image. There were scandals if someone inserted a sky into a war picture or something. Now it's all about that.

Nostalgia, the vice of the aged. We watch so many old movies our memories come in monochrome.

I went through a phase where I thought nostalgia was a bad thing.

Really, each era has its own false nostalgia. We all put a picket fence up around something. For my generation it was the '50s, and for other generations it will be something else. Change is scary for everyone, as is complexity, contradiction, and an uncertain future.

I'm not the sort to wallow in nostalgia about the good old days.

Our culture's obsession with vintage objects has rendered us unable to separate history from nostalgia. People want heart. They want a chaser of emotion with their aesthetics.

I look at old photos of me, and I don't feel connected to them at all. I would never wish my upbringing on anyone... but I wouldn't take it back for the world.

I can't talk about every single film I made. It's not my way to go back into the past and to look at my old pictures and to discuss them.

Nostalgia is a file that removes the rough edges from the good old days.
