The Weirdness of Werner Herzog's 'Bucking Fastard' Werner Herzog's latest film, 'Bucking Fastard', has been making waves in the indie cinema circuit for its unapologetic weirdness and the impressive on screen presence of Kate and Rooney Mara as identical sisters Jeanie and Joanie.
While some praise the film's bold experimentation with narrative structure, others criticize it for meandering aimlessly without a satisfying payoff.
At first glance, 'Bucking Fastard' appears to be a showcase for Herzog's signature avant garde style, which often favors atmosphere over plot.
