Ramsey is a great actress but Dunham made the lead character one dimensional and irritating. She was self centered and showed no empathy that would have been seen in a teen of that time who would have understood her role in the family at the age of 14. This character seemed to be more of this time in her defiance to her elders. She would have not been as naive and defiant as Dunham portrayed her. This could have been so much better is Birdy would have been more dimensional.
The movie is worth watching. Ramsey puts on a great performance with the material she was given. This film was in need of some better character development and a better portrayal of the time period.
