I loved this film. Hugo lived in the clock tower of a train station in Paris. It was sad that Hugo had nobody to look after him but he did have the machine his father found in the museum. He was so brilliant at keeping the clocks all working and fixing the machine. He took parts from the toy shop booth to fix his machine. The owner, George, caught Hugo stealing, took his fathers notebook, and made him work to pay back for the things he stole. George has a history that he has hidden but as the film goes on this is revealed.

The scenery of Paris was amazing and the music was sad and haunting.
