"Dream with me!", starring Martin Scorsese

Rating: 8/10 (12 March 2012)

Scorsese's homage to Georges Méliès plays with one of his key sentences.
As the title states, it's the vision of a grand director, while it's also a tribute to one of the visionaries of the early 20th century. Using Méliès meaning of films, Scorsese creates and sets the tone for a heartwarming story, remembering remarkable moments of film-history while playing with the latest technology - Hugo Cabret sums up the development of cinematic entertainment.
Snowy Paris is enchanting, the train station is Scorsese's magic cabinet - seen through the eyes of a child.
The story is about bringing magic and dreams into the real world, like films do - some reviewers may have forgotten that fact.
Regarding the technology, the use of 3D is fabulous, it creates an atmosphere that cancels the "3D" in most of the other films released with this technology in the past 2 years.
