Okay, so here's the thing. If you didn't read Bad Blood or the early WSJ reporting about Holmes (which I did, obsessively, because I am obsessed with scammers) you had a completely different experience of this movie. You *cannot* have engaged with that media, and then
Okay, I saw You Can See Everything. And I'm about 95 percent convinced Elizabeth Holmes picks unpleasant, awful men to be her partners because she looks better and slightly victimized by comparison. Because I'm sorry - she's just *awful.*

The Night Of
Besides THE WIRE, THE SOPRANOS and GAME OF THRONES, what’s one HBO series everyone needs to watch at least once? Looking for those underrated gems and all-time greats that deserve to be in the conversation.

I loved You Can See Everything. But if your takeaway is sympathy for Holmes, please read Bad Blood by @JohnCarreyrou

RIP Donal Lunny, giant of Irish music. There are a million incredible bands and records he has been part of. Two slightly deeper cuts that I would highlight are two masterpieces with his brilliant production: Connachtman's Rambles by Mairtin O'Connor, and In Full Spate by Paddy Glackin

The one of his I go back to the most often. Having been very into Aaron Copland's music for long helps and the cover of Madonna's "Live To Tell" is simply brilliant.

personally I think it's okay that Nathan didn't pad out every moment of incredulity with like, details from whistleblowers. it's fine that he treats the case as already litigated -- bc it WAS! she was sentenced! he's filming her on the way to prison!

YCSE is a great film, shades of Vertigo and Passion of Joan of Arc, and I loved the slow Morton Feldman vibe mixed w dark humor. But it is essential to pair it with more straight ahead reporting like Bad Blood @JohnCarreyrou because in the film, Holmes’ crimes are downplayed in order to heighten ambiguity and tension

i’m confused why anyone is saying there’s a “twist”in You Can See Everything… if you’ve seen any of nathan’s past work it’s literally the most logical sequence of events for the movie to take. people kept saying there was a TWIST and i was waiting for it the whole film

Amid the cinephiles' lofty debates about truth and art, it's worth listening to @TylerShultz_'s take on the film and on Elizabeth.
Elizabeth Holmes is “almost unrecognizable” in Nathan Fielder’s documentary, “You Can See Everything,” to Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz: “The woman that I saw on screen looked, frankly, like a broken woman.” Shultz tells @gayleking and @norahodonnell about his reaction to the film, speaking out about Theranos in 2015 and why the documentary is garnering sympathy for Holmes, who is serving a more than 11-year prison sentence for defrauding investors: “She is not playing victim. She is an actual victim.”
