Scorsese's Magical Train Crash, Windup
Robot; Feuding Freud: Rick Warner -
Bloomberg
Martin Scorsese’s “Hugo” is an
enchanting gift from one movie magician
to another. The 3-D adventure about an
orphan living in a Paris train station
is a paean to George Melies, a
silent-film pioneer whose contributions
have largely been forgotten. When we
meet Melies in 1931, he’s an elderly man
running a toy kiosk at the station where
the boy, Hugo Cabret (Asa Butterfield),
keeps the clocks running on time. Melies,
nobly played by Ben Kingsley, is a
former magician so embittered by the
calamitous end of his filmmaking career
that he hides his true identity even
from his goddaughter.
