6. Hugo
An orphan (Asa Butterfield) living in a Parisian train station befriends a toymaker (Ben Kingsley) with a secret in Martin Scorsese's enchanting ode to film preservation and cinema's infancy. Years from now, we might remember Hugo as Scorsese's first foray into 3D storytelling. But our critic says it is Scorsese's "blissful dream state," and the director's ability to maintain that comfort zone at all times, that puts Hugo on this year-end list.
