The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick: The Movie Hugo

Hollywood has been busy turning great books into exciting movies! The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick is out now as the movie Hugo. The book won the Caldecott Medal for illustrations in 2008 so it only makes sense that the movie should also be cutting-edge 3D imagery. Martin Scorsese has directed the movie and I'm very pleased that Asa Butterfield was selected to play Hugo - he has the perfect eyes! If you've read the book, you'll know from the illustrations how crucial the eyes are to the mysterious elements.

Enjoy this movie trailer and pick up a copy of the book from your library!
