  "summary": "Werner Herzog's film \"Bucking Fastard\" premiered at the Venice Film Festival, starring Kate and Rooney Mara as Jean and Joan Holbrooke, two eccentric sisters who speak in unison. The film follows their story, with Deadline describing them as loving the same man and sharing the same dreams.\n\nThe movie received a warm welcome, with Variety reporting a 6.5-minute ovation, while Deadline stated it was 7-1/2 minutes. Kate Mara described the film as \"quite beautiful and very unusual\". TheWrap noted that the sisters' peculiarities could make the film destined for a second life as scattered web clips.\n\nThe film has been described as \"touching, eccentric, technically complex, and unclassifiable\" by IndieWire, and a showcase for the Mara sisters at their weirdest. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film focuses on the sisters' unique relationship, with Kate Mara's character and Rooney Mara's character sharing every aspect of their lives.",
