The film debuted at Telluride in a “secret screening,” a move that generated a buzz among festival‑goers and critics alike, who praised its audacious take on the rise and fall of the Theranos founder.
Directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, both of whom have become in‑demand creators this season, helmed the documentary; Oppenheim is also behind the stylistic Chris Hansen‑inspired picture “Primetime,” which premiered at Venice and has already sparked best‑actor chatter for Robert Pattinson.
Industry insiders say the documentary could contend in both the Best Documentary and Best Picture categories at the Academy Awards, though they are holding back discussion of other potential categories until the film’s theatrical release.
A24 is slated to release “You Can See Everything” nationwide on Oct. 16, positioning the documentary for the upcoming awards circuit.
The strong response to the Holmes documentary underscores a broader wave of festival buzz, with titles such as Amazon MGM’s “I Play Rocky,” Jesse Eisenberg’s “The Debut,” and Oppenheim’s “Primetime” also generating Oscar‑season chatter as the fall festival season reaches its peak.
