'Catherine Called Birdy' comes just two months after 'Sharp Stick’s' release, but other than their director, the films bear no resemblance to each other.
, Young Lady Catherine, aka Birdy , is under the harsh scrutiny of her father Sir Rollo . She’s a woman—his daughter!—so she must follow his orders and wed the man of his choosing. Case closed.
But Birdy has another plan in mind. Though her father has a penchant for money, treating his poor daughter like a commodity to trade at the market, Birdy loves her freedom just as much. She refuses to get married, especially to some old creep who shows up at her doorstep! Any teenager in their right mind would reject some random dude. Gross.
Still, how can Sir Rollo excuse his daughter’s rash behavior after she continues to insult suitors, act immaturely, and dodge her future like it’s an arrow headed straight to her head? A bumbling idiot, Rollo fails at defending his daughter in any way. When she doesn’t attend dinner, he makes up a bad excuse. “I do think she’s come down with something,” he says. “I think there’s a little bit of pox going around.
And, as we all know, when you tell a group of folks there’s a virus hanging in the air, they’re going to lose it. Perhaps pox, even a small one, isn’t the best fake illness to give your daughter.
