Hugo Now I am Spoiled

Rating: 10/10 (4 March 2012)

This piece of art is so magnificent - completed by an army of artists - that I am afraid I will be spoiled to any other film. But I put on The Rum Diary again and I seem to enjoy it - so I guess I am OK. Hugo is at the end of the Rainbow and we went there once but I don't think we can take the trip twice. But it was something - my imagination thanks you, Martin Scorsese. You did your imagination proud and sharing it with everyone makes the Great Dreamer pleased.
I did not see this in 3D which isn't a requirement to do that - but someday I will see it in 3D. I understand that this medium is only handled well by you. So I will make a point to. The casting of some of my favorite people - and Christopher Lee was there.
Everything must have been ready to shoot the characters because the children did not age as would have shown had they labored months to complete their parts. My hats off to the sets and imagery makers - the prop people and costumers. My hat is off to the silent movie sequencers - and the energy throughout that sequence. Nothing was shortened here, or cheated. Magnificent movie. Hugo does not offend anyone's sensibilities. No ideology that is false or pushed. Except that life is purposeful for everyone.
