When does You Can See Everything come out? Friday, October 16, in theaters. A24 locked the date in September, a few weeks after the documentary surprised everyone at Telluride.
It is a film about Elizabeth Holmes, the Theranos founder, shot in the month before she reported to prison for defrauding investors. Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder directed it, which tells you this is not a standard true crime recap. Fielder's deadpan, awkward style is part of the texture, and much of the film lives in the strange space between Holmes, her partner Billy Evans, and the camera.
The Theranos story has already been told as a book, a podcast, several documentaries, and an Emmy-winning limited series. What makes this one different is access: it was filmed with Holmes herself, in the last stretch before her sentence began.
Plan for a long sit. The documentary runs 2 hours and 54 minutes.
Where can I watch it? For now, only in theaters. A24 has not said how wide the opening will be, so check local listings this week. No streaming or digital release date has been announced yet.
Is it a drama or a documentary? A documentary. If you want the scripted version of the story, that is The Dropout, the limited series that won Amanda Seyfried her Emmy.
Save it to your watchlist and Plot will keep it in view until it reaches a screen near you.
