"spielberg's Giant Risk"
feels pressure sometimes. on the bgf, the famed director
must serve two maters. roald dahls beloved 1982 novel about a little girl
kidnapped by a bgf (big friendly giant) who saves her from unfriendly cannibal
giants; and the liberties-taking script by melissa mathison, who wrote
spielberg's 1982 smash, ET, and died last year of cancer.
for visual effects alone, the film is spectacular. and
there's no faulting mark rylance, an oscar winner for spielberg's bridge of
spies, whose motioncapture performaance as a 24 food giant is both subtly
nuanced and truly monumental
Tthings get a bit grumbly- to borrow a bgf phrase- when
theworlds of spielbergs and dahl colide. were set for terror in giant country,
where the bfg takes 10 year old sophie (a feisty ruby barnhill) after he sweeps
her out of her orphanage ber in london. the bfg is bullied by the humongous
fleshlumpeater (jemaine clement), who longs to snack on human beans like
sophie. this is the darkest of dahl, but spielberg favors watching the bfg
collect dreams in glass jars and blow them into the heads of sleeping humans.
its an apt metaphor for spielbergs own method.
Tthe biggest laught come ar buckingham palace when the queen
(penelope wilton) and her retinue imbibe the bfgs frobscottle and fart up a
storm. but during a climactic helicopter roundup of evil giants, you want the
movie to go for broke and haunt us like E.T did. sadly the bfg plays it too
nice and falls shorts.
