Hugo
Film: Hugo
Director: Martin Scorsese
Cast: Asa Butterfield, Ben Kingsley, Chloe Moretz, Jude Law, Sacha Baron Coen
Synopsis: Hugo tells the story of an orphan boy living a secret life in the walls of a Paris train station.
With the help of an eccentric girl, he searches for the answer to a mystery linking the father he recently lost, the ill-tempered toy shop owner living below him and a heart shaped lock, seemingly without a key.
Critics: “There is a real charm to Hugo and this largely thanks to the world that Scorsese has created - visually this movie is just beautiful.”- FemaleFirst
“The heart-shaped story may be the key that sets Hugo in motion, but this rediscovery of the cinéma de papa is most memorable for its technical wizardry and astonishing visual trickery.” - Film 4
“It's a deeply felt piece of work, something which only Scorsese could have brought to the screen…” - Guardian
Award/Nominations: Hugo has picked up Best Picture awards at the National Board of Review as well as nominations at the Satellite Awards, Detroit Film Critics Society, Phoenix Film Critics Society, New York Film Critics Circle Awards and Washington D.C. area Film Critics Association Awards.
