Hugo https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/73/Hugo_Poster.jpg Dir: Martin Scorsese Genre: Animated, Fantasy, Adventure Year: 2011 Hugo has lost a little bit of gravitas for me over the years because, upon first viewing, I was convinced that this was Scorsese's final farewell to film. It would have been an incredibly appropriate send-off--probably the best send-off to a career since fucking William Shakespeare with The Tempest--but ultimately I'm glad he kept going since he did make at least one other amazing movie afterward. Hugo is Scorsese's love letter to cinema. It's his first foray into 3D animation, sort of the culmination of the "movie magic" that becomes central to the theme later on. It's really something only Scorsese or Spielberg could have rightfully made, and I am glad one of them did. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ...
