"You Can See Everything," directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, grossed over $15 million in its limited opening weekend on fewer than 900 screens. A24 called it one of the largest limited-release openings of the century, with CNN noting it's the biggest non-music documentary debut since "Fahrenheit 9/11." The three-hour film, shot secretly with Elizabeth Holmes and partner Billy Evans before her 2023 imprisonment, holds a 99% Rotten Tomatoes score and a record 4.8 rating on Letterboxd.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The sold-out crowds and critical acclaim suggest renewed public appetite for documentaries that blend investigative access with unconventional filmmaking styles, which could encourage studios to greenlight similarly ambitious nonfiction projects. The film's framing of Holmes, who maintained her innocence to the filmmakers despite her fraud conviction, may also reignite debate over how media portrayals shape public sympathy toward convicted figures.
