Martin Scorsese
Hugo
Hugo Cabret is a young Parisian orphan who lives hidden away in the vast Gare Montparnasse train station. When he is not eluding the station’s watchful inspector, secretly keeping its many clocks running, or tinkering with a mechanical figure that belonged to his father, Hugo observes the lives of the people who work in the station…including an irascible toy shop owner named Georges Méliès.
Including his nomination this year for Best Picture for HUGO, this is the tenth Academy Award nomination for Martin Scorsese. He was previously nominated for:
