While award-winning director
Martin Scorsese is not known for "nice" family movies, he's breaking the mold with his first family-oriented film,
Hugo.
Shot in pure 3D, the film, written by John Logan and based on a Carnegie prize-winning novel by Brian Selznick, is ostensibly a child’s adventure about a young orphan called Hugo (Asa Butterfield, from
The Boy With Striped Pyjamas) struggling to survive within a French railway station, where he’s been dragged as child labour by his uncle (Ray Winstone) after the untimely death of Hugo’s dad (Jude Law).
