Hugo (Entertainment In Video £19.99) 127 mins

Set in Gare Montparnasse in Paris, Hugo tells the story of a young orphan, the eponymous Hugo, left to fend for himself after his father’s death (with a short cameo by Jude Law). To honour his father’s memory, Hugo uses all his ingenuity (and a little deft sleight of hand here and there) to try to repair the clockwork robotic figure his father rescued from the museum where he worked. Unbeknown to Hugo, the figure also holds the clue to the secret past of Papa Georges,who now runs a toyshop on theconcourse, but why is Georges so embittered? Beautifully shot under the careful eye of director Martin Scorsese, the movie also contains many vignettes from the earliest heydays of cinema
