A good tribute to the filmmakers

This movie is really great! The plot is ups and downs, fascinating, and the 127-minute film doesn't feel procrastination at all, and it is led by one suspense after another until the end. When I first watched it, I really didn't expect this to be a tribute to Méliès. I thought it would be a story about a poor boy without a father. Who knew the twist would turn into a tribute to Méliès.

The casting of the movie is also very good, and every role is fully expressed. Personally, I prefer the little girl played by Chloe Moretz. She is very intellectual and romantic, and her exports are all characters in literary books. I especially liked the two scenes where she asked the little boy in the bookstore, "Don't you like books?" and the two of them went to the cinema to watch a movie. Although they were both children, they were also very romantic.
