The BFG

Steven Spielberg brings Roald Dahl's beloved story to life in this live-action fantasy adventure. The film follows Sophie, a lonely orphan girl played by Ruby Barnhill, who finds herself whisked away from her home in London by the Big Friendly Giant, portrayed by Mark Rylance. Instead of eating children like his monstrous kin, this giant dreams of friendship and protection for humanity. The production boasted a substantial budget of $140 million, reflecting the ambitious scope of bringing these larger-than-life characters to the screen with modern technology.[edit]
