Last Updated on October 14, 2022

Lena Dunham has always offered a unique voice in cinema and television. From Tiny Furniture to the hugely popular Girls, the talented Dunham has found fresh new ways to tell timeless stories. Her latest, feels quite literally like a timeless tale. Catherine Called Birdy is a lively and uplifting tale about a very spirited young girl causing havoc for her family and friends. The film stars Bella Ramsey as Birdy, as well as Lesley Sharp, Joe Alwyn, Sophia Okonedo, and Andrew Scott giving an excellent performance. It’s a terrific cast.

Recently, we had the great pleasure of chatting with Lena and a few of the film’s stars. First up, we spoke with Joe Alwyn and Andrew Scott about working with Dunham, and being involved in the film. And speaking of Dunham, we next spoke with the filmmaker and her star, Bella Ramsey. Talking to Ramsey, it was nice to hear her take on playing this rebellious and colorful character. For Dunham, she opened up about her connection to the source material. It was such a joy speaking to everyone involved. Catherine Called Birdy is currently available on Prime Video!
