Movie Review - You Can See Everything

I love Nathan Fielder.

If you haven’t seen his work in the TV shows “Nathan for You” or “The Rehearsal,” Fielder has a way of presenting real-life situations with a unique twist - enough to make you wonder if what you’re watching is truly real.

That ability is used to great effect in “You Can See Everything,” where he documents the daily lives of Elizabeth Holmes (of the Theranos scandal) and her partner before - and after - she goes to jail to serve her sentence. (If you don’t know her history, the movie will catch you up.) He interviews them and lives with them in the weeks before she leaves.

This film takes some crazy turns, so I don’t want to reveal much more about it. Suffice it to say, you won’t want to leave your seat for the whole second half of this nearly three-hour movie.

I was transfixed during the whole thing, and I know I’ll be thinking about it for days. This is a great movie to chew over with people afterward; I heard multiple conversations outside the theatre as I left.

Is Fielder really allowing us to see everything? Is Elizabeth? Almost certainly not, but boy, it’s fun to think so and watch it play out.

Grade: A

Plot
Thirty-four days before she’s sent to prison, notorious Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes invites a skeptical film crew to document her every move. What begins as an intimate portrait of an enigmatic felon becomes a mind-bending three-year journey into the abyss.
