Floor Staff Supervisor Greg Vellante is back with our latest Coolidge Staff Pick, highlighting Martin Scorsese's Hugo.

“The film is kind of like a Film 101 course in the form of a family film; it's a great way to introduce young viewers to an era of cinema that they might not be familiar with, and it's also just something that celebrates the magic of cinema.” Watch the intro below, and then sit down to watch the film, which is streaming on Netflix and available to rent on some platforms.
