雨果的祕密The Invention of Hugo Cabret

關乎一個男孩生存希望的祕密 A boy whose survival depends on secrets

雨果相信自己已經把機器人修好了，只不過還需要一把特殊鑰匙來幫機器人上緊發條。

他看到伊莎貝兒的脖子上戴著一條心形鑰匙的項鍊，隨即知道那把鑰匙一定行得通。

他偷了項鍊隨即跑走，但伊莎貝兒卻一路跟著他來到他的房間·。

他把鑰匙插入機器人，然後兩個人一起看著機器人書出一幅圖畫；那是《月球旅行記》裡的場景，是雨果的父親最喜歡的電影。

機器人畫完圖之後，還簽上喬治·梅里葉的名字。

雨果很好奇，因此前往一間電影圖書館，找到一本封面印有和機器人所繪製的圖一模一樣的書。

他發現玩具製造匠實際上是一個大家都以為已經過世的電影名人。

雨果、伊莎貝兒和幾個朋友前往喬治家中，把雨果發現的東西拿給他看，於是喬治坦承了自己的過往。

喬治要求要看機器人，因此雨果就衝到火車站去拿。

雨果差點被火車撞上，所幸在千鈞一髮之際獲救。

接下來，雨果跟所有人說了自己的故事；然後喬治爸爸和他的太太決定收養雨果；然後，他們從此便成為快樂的一家人。

Hugo believes he has finished repairing the automaton but needs a special key to wind it up. He sees a heart-shaped key around Isabelle's neck and knows it will work. He steals the necklace and runs off, but Isabelle follows him back to his room.

He inserts the key into the automaton, and they watch as it draws a picture. It's from A Trip to the Moon, which was Hugo's father's favorite movie. When the drawing is finished, the automaton signs it Georges Melies.

Intrigued, Hugo visits a film library and finds a book with a picture of the scene the automaton drew. He discovers that the toy maker is actually a famous filmmaker that everyone thinks is dead. Hugo, Isabelle and some friends go to Georges' house to show him what Hugo found, and Georges confesses his past. He asks to see the automaton, and Hugo sprints to the train station to get it. Nearly struck by a train, Hugo is saved at the last minute. Hugo then tells everyone his story, and Papa Georges and his wife decide to adopt Hugo, and they become a happy family.
