This week on WVIA Pop Shop, Allan Austin and Patrick Hamilton explore You Can See Everything, the unconventional documentary from Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim about Elizabeth Holmes, the disgraced founder of Theranos.
What begins as an intimate look at Holmes and her family in the weeks before she enters prison becomes something far more complicated: a documentary that questions its own purpose, its subjects and the very possibility of discovering an objective truth.
Allan and Patrick examine how Fielder's increasingly personal involvement transforms the film, why Amanda Seyfried's unexpected participation adds fascinating new layers, and how the documentary challenges our assumptions about reality, memory and the stories people construct about themselves.
Can a documentary ever present an objective account of its subject? What happens when the filmmaker becomes part of the story? And if we can see everything, why might we still understand so little?
Plus, the guys explain why this nearly three-hour film earns two of their most enthusiastic recommendations yet—and why its biggest achievement may be leaving audiences with more questions than answers.
Spoiler-free discussion first. Spoilers begin around 15:40.
