What if the only way to avoid an arranged marriage was to be as unmarriageable as possible? This is the bold plan at the heart of Catherine Called Birdy, a vibrant 2022 coming-of-age comedy that brings medieval England to life with a modern spirit. Based on the beloved novel by Karen Cushman, the film follows Lady Catherine, known to all as Birdy, a fiercely independent 14-year-old determined to sabotage her father’s desperate attempts to marry her off to the highest bidder. Her clever schemes and rebellious antics provide both hilarious chaos and touching moments of growth. With its spirited protagonist and sharp wit, this historical dramedy explores themes of freedom, family duty, and finding one’s own voice in a world that seeks to silence it. Viewers should watch for its infectious energy, heartfelt performances, and the timeless message that even in the darkest of ages, a little rebellion can spark a revolution. It’s a joyous and empowering tale for anyone who has ever fought to write their own story.
