"My father took me to the movies all the time. He told me about the first one he ever saw. He went into a dark room, and on a white screen he saw a rocket fly—into the eye of the man in the moon. It went straight in. He said it was like seeing his dreams in the middle of the day. The movies were our special place.” — Hugo
