Popcorn Culture - Stuff We Missed: Catherine Called Birdy

A comedy set in medieval times with a slightly bizarre plot, Catherine Called Birdy is about a daughter (Bella Ramsey) who decides to thwart her destitute father's plans of marrying her off to a wealthy family. The film, directed by Lena Dunham, has been gaining buzz since its release late last year. We check out the new-to-streaming comedy and discuss Lena Dunham's filmmaking style, the continuing awesomeness of Bella Ramsey, and why buzzy comedies like Catherine Called Birdy don't make it big at the box office anymore.
