Spielberg says ‘BFG’ is closest he’s come to ‘a love story’
CANNES — Steven Spielberg, a giant in the world of cinema, landed at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday with his gentle Roald Dahl adaptation “The BFG.”

The film, about a young orphan (Ruby Barnhill) taken away by a friendly, big-eared giant (recent Oscar winner Mark Rylance), marks a return for Spielberg to the magical kind of fable he has largely moved away from in recent years. It’s also his second film with “E.T.” writer Melissa Mathison, who died last November. Spielberg has dedicated “The BFG” (Big Friendly Giant)
to her. “It’s a love story that children have for their grandparents. It’s a love story that grandparents have for their children,” Spielberg told reporters Saturday. “I think this probably the closest I’ve ever come to telling a love story.” Sitting between his young star and his new favorite actor (Rylance is starring in the director’s next two
films as well), Spielberg said enchanting fantasies like “The BFG” are just as vital as more realistic tales. “The worse the world gets, the more magic we have to believe in,” said Spielberg. “Hope comes from magic and I think that’s what movies can give people. They can give people hope that there will be a reason to fight on to the next day. Hope is everything to me.” Spielberg acknowledged his interest has recently drifted to historical dramas like “Lincoln” and last year’s “Bridge of Spies,” but he said making “The BFG” was liberating. “It was revisiting something that I’ve always loved to do, which is just to tell stories that are from the imagination,” he said. “It brought back feelings I had as a younger filmmaker.” “The BFG,” which drew warmly respectful reviews in its Cannes premiere, is largely faithful to Dahl’s 1982 classic and was made in concert with the Dahl estate. (The author died in 1990.) Producer Kathleen Kennedy first obtained the rights in 1993 and later turned to Mathison for the script. Spielberg called collaborating with Mathison again “a wonderful reunion and a very bittersweet time, as it turned out, for us.” Dahl was famously anti-Israel and some considered him antiSemitic. (ap)

Three killed as ethnic rivalries fuel brawl at Moscow cemetery
MOSCOW - Three people were killed and two dozen were wounded in a mass brawl at Moscow’s largest cemetery that witnesses said was sparked by rivalry between ethnic groups battling for control of the burial service business.
About 200 people, some armed with guns and other weapons, took part in the clashes at the vast Khovanskoye cemetery in southwest Moscow and more than 90 people were detained after riot police broke up the brawl, police and witnesses said. Moscow’s city health department said three people were killed and 23 were hospitalised, four of whom were seriously injured. Pictures posted on social media showed young men wielding iron rods, spade shafts and baseball bats as they rushed into the fighting. Reuters witnesses saw a young man’s body lying on the pavement near an overturned car as a forensic expert bent over it. About 10 mainly young men lay handcuffed on the ground while police armed with Kalashnikov rifles looked on. The RIA news agency quoted a cemetery official as saying people from Russia’s North Caucasus regions of Chechnya and Dagestan had attacked migrants from ex-Soviet Uzbekistan and Tajikistan working there, attempting to take over their jobs. With Russia’s economy battered by Western sanctions and low prices for its oil exports, migrants struggle to find work and ethnic criminal groups add to social tensions. Quoting a police source, TASS news agency said ethnic Chechens, Dagestanis, Uzbeks and Tajiks were among those detained. Tajikistan’s Interior Ministry will send to Moscow its top expert in battling organised crime in the former Soviet Union to help investigate the incident, Russian news agencies quoted Russian police spokeswoman Irina Volk as saying. Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin said on his Twitter account that none of those responsible would go unpunished.(rtr)
