(Nostalgia as a gimmick in Films)

Filmmakers have often used setting a movie in the past instead of the present day to help sell it to audiences by instilling that element of Nostalgia. Stand by me. Stranger Things. Etc.

We discuss how this has been used well and poorly and what the future holds for Nostalgia in film – how it can be used to enhance a story – or distract from how poor it is. Are remakes cashing in on the nostalgia of the original films?

We also get into history itself, biblical talk and fantasize, when would you have liked to have been if you could go back in time.
