In Reply to: "Hugo" was ridiculous from front to back, a kid's film gone whacky. "Age" is based on a wonderful Wharton posted by tinear on January 27, 2012 at 15:50:33:
All the insight into "a past generation's mores" in Age of Innocence could be gleaned in the first five minutes. After that, it was a complete snoozefest. Wharton was no Dickens. She was more of a garden designer and interior decorator who wrote stories. Like I said, I'd rather watch water boil. A waste of Scorsese's talent and set design on the likes of Ryder and Pfeiffer, who never had great skills but ended up with great directors in a couple films.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. If Hugo doesn't move you, maybe you just lack a soul.
