The BFG (Big Friendly Giant) was about a little orphan girl who discovers that Giants are real and they come at night and kidnap children to eat.

She is taken by the one giant (the Big Friendly Giant of the title) that is apparently not into eating kids who tries to protect her.

According to one paper I read on it the story was a metaphor for a child being kidnapped and groomed. Which is now stuck in my head and I can not un see it. So I decided to pass it along. :)

But the movie was decent. Not great but decent.

Big Friendly Giant. Really wonderful book. If you happen to read it you’ll love the phraseology of the Giant.
