Martin Scorsese surprised a lot of people when he adapted the children's book "Hugo" for the big screen. But in a sit-down with Scott Feinberg of The Hollywood Reporter the director goes into detail about why he moved from graphic R-rated films to the family-friendly film. Set in the '30s, "Hugo" tells the story of a Paris orphan who lives in a train station.
