Q: Your latest film, “Midnight in Paris” examines nostalgia, what do you get nostalgic about?
A: I do get nostalgic in a weak moment … thinking back and thinking, “Gee, it was great to be able to play stickball in the street and go run into the house and take a shower and eat some unhealthy food’ — not having any idea it was unhealthy or caring even if I knew — but I didn’t. It was a simpler life. But then when I stop and think, really? Go back to that life, was it so nice? It wasn’t. I hated school, I did terribly, I had all kinds of problems. It was pretty terrible.
Q: So how do you adapt to the world of iPods and iPads?
A: I have a telephone, a cell phone, but all I can do on it is call out and receive calls. I don’t have any other use, I have no, what do you call it, text number?
That’s my favorite thing I have read all day.
