The movie “You Can See Everything” is creating quite a stir, sparking interest in potential Oscars recognition. A24, the film distributor, is actively campaigning for awards, garnering attention within the industry.
Even without watching the film, many are familiar with its premise centered around Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos, who faces legal consequences following a scandal involving false claims about her technology. Described as a unique and captivating experience, the film has captivated audiences with its unconventional storytelling.
The push for nominations in categories like best documentary and best picture is ambitious, especially given the historical rarity of feature documentaries and directors from documentaries being nominated in these prestigious categories.
In addition to aiming for recognition in cinematography, film editing, original score, sound, and production design, the film is also being considered for costume design and makeup and hairstyling nominations, a move that is unconventional for a documentary.
Furthermore, a separate campaign has emerged for Amanda Seyfried, known for her portrayal of Elizabeth Holmes in “The Dropout,” to be nominated for best supporting actress for her role in “You Can See Everything.”
The film’s bold and boundary-pushing approach to filmmaking has garnered praise from audiences and critics alike, setting high expectations for the upcoming Oscar nominations announcement on January 21 next year.
