* {{Narrator}}: Hollis Frampton talking about thirteen photographs, and how they came about, and how he's satisfied or not satisfied with them. Oddly, Frampton's narration is read not by Frampton, but by Michael Snow. Even more oddly, Frampton/Snow's narration is about the ''next'' photo in line, not the one onscreen. So when we're looking at a portrait of a bearded man, the narrator is talking about his difficulty in photographing a window, and how he and his camera got reflected in the glass. After that narration is done, and there's a period of silence, the photo of the window pops up, and the narrator starts talking about the next photo that, again, we can't see yet.

''Nostalgia'' is a 1971 experimental short film (38 minutes) by Hollis Frampton. Frampton.
Itfeatures consists in its entirety of a series of identical static shots of various photographs burning sitting on a hot plate. A photo appears and Frampton begins talking, sharing memories associated with the photos and his career. The photos soon catch fire and burn. After each photo in turn is reduced to ashes, the next photograph appears on the hot plate and the process is repeated. Thirteen photos are discussed and destroyed over 38 minutes.
While the narration is by Frampton and written in the first person, it is delivered by fellow filmmaker Michael Snow.
