"You have wings - you must learn how to harness them." Amazon Prime Video has revealed a trailer for a film titled Catherine Called Birdy, which is actually the second new Lena Dunham indie film out this year. She first premiered Sharp Stick at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival in January (it's playing in theaters now - watch the trailer) and now Catherine Called Birdy, also written & directed by Dunham, will premiere at the 2022 Toronto Film Festival this fall before opening in select theaters soon after. This one is set in the distant past - in the year 1290, to be exact. A 14 year old girl in medieval England navigates through life and avoiding potential suitors her father has in mind. It's another empowering feminist tale of a young woman where, "her imagination, defiance and deep belief in her own right to independence put her on a collision course with her parents." And she will defeat them, I'm sure! Young actor Bella Ramsey stars as the titular Birdy, with a fun cast including Andrew Scott, Billie Piper, Joe Alwyn, Dean-Charles Chapman, and Ralph Ineson. Well I'll be damned, this seems pretty good! Looks better than I was expecting - bring it on. ›››
