About Netflix - NETFLIX TO CREATE EXCLUSIVE SLATE OF ORIGINAL ANIMATED EVENT SERIES FROM THE ICONIC ROALD DAHL STORY UNIVERSE".
A sensational and enthralling saga, Ferber masterfully captures the essence of Texas with all its wealth and excess, cruelty and prejudice, pride and violence.My favourite quote was mid-way through the book when Sophie was reading the labels on the dream bottles. In 2003 it was ranked number 56 in The Big Read, a two-stage survey of the British public by the BBC to determine the "Nation's Best-loved Novel".
The out of print Blu-ray was released on November 5, 2013, as part of the James Dean Ultimate Collector's Edition set, and as an individual DigiBook release followed by a non-DigiBook Blu-ray on March 11, 2014. Inside the jar, just below the edge of the label, Sophie could see the putting-to-sleep dream lying peacefully on the bottom, pulsing gently, sea-green like the other one, but perhaps a trifle larger.Looking out of her window, she sees a mysterious Giant Man in the street, carrying a suitcase and a trumpet. As with Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind, Edna Ferber is making a statement in Giant as well as telling a wonderful story. Sophie was petrified when she first saw the BFG, but their friendship grew and Sophie and the BFG became friends forever.
