A screenplay edition of Hugo’s secret-driven adventure

John Logan’s screenplay presents the story behind Martin Scorsese’s 3D film adaptation of Brian Selznick’s The Invention of Hugo Cabret. The central thread follows Hugo, a resourceful boy working to decipher a secret his father left behind. That search is described as changing Hugo’s circumstances and those of the people around him, while leading toward a place of safety and belonging. As a screenplay, the book offers the film’s story in script form, emphasizing scenes and dramatic action rather than a prose-novel presentation.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in film screenplays and adaptations
  • Fans of Hugo or The Invention of Hugo Cabret
  • Those interested in stories about secrets, family legacy, and belonging
