| The 1989 Cosgrove Hall film, based on Roald Dahl's book. One dark night, an orphan named Sophie is snatched from her bed by a giant, and whisked away to another world. Fortunately, her abductor is the Big Friendly Giant (BFG for short), a likeable guy who spends his time giving good dreams to children. He's also the only one of his species who doesn't eat humans, but as the smallest and weakest, he's powerless to stop his brutal neighbors. As long as Fleshlumpeater, Bloodbottler, and all the rest are free, Sophie will never be safe, so she and the BFG concoct a plan to stop the evil giants and save humanity - once and for all! This movie was a staple of my childhood, and in my opinion, it's one of the best adaptations of Dahl's work. Enjoy! |
