Sophie is snatched from her orphanage early one morning by the BFG (Big Friendly Giant), whom she witnesses engaged in mysterious activities, and whisked away to Giant Country. She is soon put at ease, as she learns that BFG's job is to collect, catalogue and deliver pleasant dreams to children. She joins him that night, but the mean giants follow them, planning to eat the children. Sophie enlists the help of the Queen, by making up a dream for her, and with the backing of the armed forces, they defeat the mean giants. (Roadshow Entertainment)

It would be nice if all those who currently reproach Steven Spielberg's The BFG for being too childish and simple would also watch this animated version. Perhaps the comparison would at least lighten their eyes a little and they would better appreciate Spielberg's undoubtedly more mature and deeper take on Dahl's story.
