HUGO, and a curious synchronicity

HUGO [aka oliver twist for film history students], has everything i loooove to see in a film:
train station! giant clock tower! intricate mechanical devices! old toy-maker! kindly librarian! film projector!
and of course, nothing has more visual appeal, personally, than a little boy working among giant clockwork, surrounded by steam.
limlim said that i'd spazz out during this movie, and boy'e was right.


now, concerning synchronicity, about 3 years ago, my proposal for our group film was this:
"a little mechanic goes around winding up people's hearts (like winding a clock) and fixing broken hearts by finding the missing piece or part."

so...i was silently seizing and freaking out in the cinema today =_=
our profs in college always said "make the film you yourself want to see"
to this i add "or wait till someone else does a better job than you ever could and make you CRY"  :')
