Actually the nostalgia craze in the 00s is 80s. 
What appears to be 90s nostalgia is really leftovers
from that decade.
And the 70s had VERY strong 50s nostalgia. The 40s
nostalgia was
more in the early part of that decade.

Very few people feel nostalgic for the 1938-45 era
anywhere
in the world, for understandable reasons, other than
old men who
feel that their best years were in the military.

"The Bank Dick" wasn't made in the 20s, but
nevertheless Fields
was a big star of vaudeville, stage and screen during
that time. 

Also, Keaton during his last years of life was finally
celebrated as
a living legend for his work in his glory years. 

That's not what I was talking about ; a Keaton or
Fields film is 
not dated in the way that a Chevalier, Vallee or
Jolson record is.
