Reading the Oscars: 'Hugo' the book vs. the movie
Pays tribute to. One of the most striking aspects of the Martin Scorsese-directed film is the lush, Oscar-nominated cinematography; Selznick’s illustrations — dark, scratchy, and obviously hand-drawn — couldn’t be more aesthetically different, but they’re every bit as powerful as the expensive, high-definition imagery of the movie. The first 45 pages of the book could have been a shot-for-shot storyboard for the film’s breathtaking opening sequence.In the book, pages of text are interspersed with long stretches of sequential illustrations, which you can turn through almost like a flip-book.
