Bobby's performance is very restrained and best as it gets. His convo's with both Pesci and Sharon Stone are extremely well done. Scorsese 8-).
I really liked Shutter Island and of course, it's one of my favourites.
Happy b'day sir. 69 & going strong.

Hugo is a love letter to Silent Cinema, but it is also very potently, on necessity of film preservation..
Asa Butterfield's face is how Godard puts on Hitchcock 'documentation' of Fonda's facial profile, and the epidermal effect.. The boy from 'boy in stripped pyjamas', I thought was a 'stretch' and 'cute' to be a Dickensian child, living within walls of train station, but actually the 'Dreyer face' provides both heightened reality and heightened beauty at the same time. At all times, it feels the close-ups are 'documented' and the emotions registered.
Not a fan of Ben Kingsley, but the ideal actor to play George Melies. Some of his most seamless 'acting', or rather 'acts' are here. It's a relief to watch him be at playful ease.
Chloe is the ideal counter-point, the book worm, representing the prescient medium of 'Books', never condescended by Marty. She's the 'key' to open up Invention of Hugo. This inescapable code shouldn't be played down. So for the written medium fanatics, this is a positive gesture from a man who is akin to Hugo in the film.
Sacha works well, always suggests danger to this world. Tremendous casting, with his signature in the mind.
