<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Unlikely box office hit \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d is a nearly three-hour documentary from comedic filmmaker Nathan Fielder. The movie follows disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, famously played by Amanda Seyfried in the Hulu series \u201cThe Dropout.\u201d Essentially, Holmes defrauded investors by claiming to have breakthrough blood-testing technology that ultimately did not work properly. With an 11-year prison sentence looming, Holmes and her partner Billy Evans invited Fielder and his crew to live in their home and document their last month together for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first part of the movie follows Holmes, as expected. Elizabeth and Billy are eccentric, but they play up relatable traits like loving their children and enjoying walks on the beach. There\u2019s a strong whiff of the couple trying to \u201ccontrol the narrative\u201d and get the audience on their side, especially during a frustrating sequence where they go over the exact verbiage that Elizabeth used in interviews and presentations. They want the audience to believe that Elizabeth isn\u2019t guilty of the crimes that are sending her to prison, or at least that she didn\u2019t know she was committing crimes. Fielder doesn\u2019t know what to make of these claims, since clearly the couple is behaving performatively to some degree, but there appear to be some limits to Elizabeth\u2019s mental capacity that make her untruths seem less deliberate. Either way, no appeals to the documentary are going to get Elizabeth off the hook. She goes to prison, she\u2019s in prison at the end of this movie, and she\u2019s still in prison as of this writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the movie doesn\u2019t end with Elizabeth going to prison. It \u201cimplies\u201d that it\u2019s going to end there, but it has some more tricks up its sleeve. Fielder starts thinking that Billy isn\u2019t on the level, that he\u2019s misrepresenting Elizabeth on social media in her absence and trying to hone in on her business ventures. It\u2019s at this point that Fielder enlists the help of an unlikely ally that I\u2019ll call \u201cThe 4th<\/sup> Party.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 4th<\/sup> Party takes an interest in stopping Billy\u2019s scheming, going so far as to confront him at his own dinner table. They also serve as an interaction partner for Fielder, sometimes agreeing with him and sometimes providing their own opinions that counter his takes. Because scenes between Fielder and The 4th<\/sup> Party seem staged and therefore scripted, sometimes I think The 4th<\/sup> Party isn\u2019t providing their own opinions, but just saying what Fielder wants them to say as a stand-in for his conscience. It\u2019s certainly an interesting way of sharing his inner struggles with the audience, but there\u2019s an unshakeable disingenuousness to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both parts of the movie are compelling in their own way. If you\u2019re looking for insight into Holmes herself, with her unique way of thinking (the word \u201cautistic\u201d is never used, but she displays several classic symptoms, including not understanding the humor in a famous comedy routine), then the first half is for you. Then again, it will be up to you to decide if the version of her personality that she presents to the camera is her honest self, or \u2013 and the movie keeps coming back to this phrase \u2013 \u201ca character she created.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s the second part though, the one that takes more risks creatively, that has made the film a breakout hit. Yes, there\u2019s the deliberate staging between Fielder and The 4th<\/sup> Party, and there\u2019s an undeniable self-indulgence to Fielder making the movie more about himself than supposed subject Holmes, but the last minute of the movie sees many pieces of a puzzle that nobody was working to solve fall unexpectedly into place. It\u2019s the kind of ending that may inspire viewers to see the film all over again (no small feat given the film\u2019s length) so they can revel in details they missed the first time. For now, I\u2019ll just say that you should see \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d at least a first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grade: B-<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d is rated R for language and some graphic nudity.
