I remember seeing this in Hugo too! My dad said this film used to scared him as a kid. Awesome and creative tribute.

@jclaireyp thank you!
@alophoto Yes, that movie was really cool!
@cjphoto I bet the Méliès film was scary. Did you read the Hugo graphic novel?

Hugo is a great story that shares Mr.Melies(please forgive lack of proper accents) accomplishments.

[Claes]

As mentioned above - this made me think of Hugo right away. Well done!

[Chris Johnson]

@domenicododaro - No I didn't. But not I'm intrigued, gonna have to check it out! :)

[Domenico Dodaro]

@joysabin thank you so much, Joy, This came after failure of several other shots with different subjects. And it came out straightforward. You wouldn't guess what the "rocket" is!
@runner365 thank you Claes! And Hugo is a declared tribute to Méliès!
@cjphoto do it! It's really beautiful!

[Walks @ 7]

Okay, I give, what is the rocket?

[Domenico Dodaro]

@joysabin The cap of an ambient fragrance diffuser... sometimes things look like they have been designed for one''s pervert purposes LOL

[Walks @ 7]

@domenicododaro LOL!!!!

[Caroline]

This is sooo cool Domenico!!! I feel like I've been living under a rock as I was not familiar. I googled it very quickly and need to watch the whole thing but I did forward a bit to catch this very part and this is perfect!!! Now I am quite intrigued by this...

[Domenico Dodaro]

@kerosene Mr. Méliès and Hugo Cabret are an amazing discovery! Thank you so much!

[Wendy Bowden]

Brilliantly done
