The BFG

Hosted by Joe Morgenstern Jul. 01, 2016 Entertainment
Spielberg uses digital wizardry to throw spectacular dreams of friendship and adventure on the big screen.

The BFG is Steven Spielberg's version of the Roald Dahl children's classic. The film can be leisurely verging on slow, but it gains dramatic stature from one of the great actors of our time, Mark Rylance, in the title role.
